This is truly a nice boot. However if you have even a slightly wide foot they will not be comfortable. I only bought a 1/2 size larger, thinking if i needed to wear double socks, however they are still too tight. I will have to give them away because returning them is just too much of a hassle. Definitely size up 1 whole size maybe even a size and a 1/2. Otherwise, the construction of this boot seems sturdy. Would definitely recommend purchasing if you can find the right size.
The best boots ever! Warm, comfortable, keep your feet dry in rain, hail & snow. Best thing is they are nice and light so you just want to walk and walk in freezing climates. LOVE THESE BOOTS, worth every penny, even the super high shipping charges to Australia.
