"Love the boots! Got them in the brown color....I'm a size 9 and ordered a 9 and they're fine....wouldn't order down a 1/2 size. The bottom is a bit stiff, but I think it will loosen up with wear. Could always add a sheepskin insole for warmth/comfort. Plenty of room around the ankle to tuck jeans in. All in all, a nice, simple, classic boot!"
