"I consulted friends who've bought the Bearpaw brand and was told to buy a little smaller b/c they would stretch. It was great advice. I wear a 7 1/2 but bought a size 7. They are warm and cozy, were a bit snug the first two days of wearing but have already stretched comfortably! This was a great buy since it was as if I got two pairs of boots for the price of one. Being able to wear this product two different ways makes it more useful!! Love it!"
