Very interesting Kelly...I also bought these boots and I am only 5'1" (on a good hair day!). Here's the pics that I had posted with the boots when they arrived. I also had the wrinkling at the ankle to some degree but it didn't bother me and they were crazy comfy. But when I look really closely, mine seem to come to about the same spot under my knee as yours do but everyone thought mine fit fine. Or am I missing something?

Do you want me to measure mine? I wonder if it would be worth trying yet another pair?
