"I got these in a size 8 for my 11 year old son. He LOVES them. They fit me too, so I know first hand that they're comfortable! I usually need a wide width and although these don't come in W, they're plenty roomy enough. The shaft is a perfect "fit"! They are genuine leather with a steal toe and a rubbery sole that's non slip, oil resistant, and doesn't make a lot of noise. I couldn't ask for a better boot! PERFECT! He also loves that fact the they say Wolverine on the sole."
