What seems to be the biggest problem is the narrowness of the boot around where the bottom laces are. I have been told I have a slightly narrow foot. They were pretty tight at first and I considered ordering a half size larger, but if i had, the toe room would have been huge. After having worn the boot for several days they stretched and now they fit perfectly. So my advice, just order your normal size of shoe and they will loosen up to your foot. Leather apparently has a tendency to stretch. If theyre too tight, wear thin socks, if they stretch a bit much, wear thick socks. The leather is so amazing. The quality is top notch. Its loose leather, not extremely firm like most leather boots are. So this adds to comfort and maneuverability. Though, it is firm in the necessary places like the toe, heel, and surrounding areas near the outer sole. The leather around the calf and the middle part of your foot is loose.

Extremely disappointed in this boot. The heel just broke off and the rubber sole was warn almost completely down. These are about 4 months old and for the price I would have expected at least a couple years of use. Besides that I love the style and they were pretty comfortable.

The leather is extremely supple and the boots are very comfortable. The downside to the supple leather, however, is less durability (so don't go and get into fights with them or whatever). Despite what others have said about sizing down, I feel the boots fit true to size. I initially ordered a half size down and that was a mistake. This is the first time I've ever spent this much on a pair of boots but I don't regret doing so. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Wow. These feel like the softest gloves you've ever adorned. The stitching and lacing are very clean and stylish. I have only these a couple of weeks so their durability is unknown. Based on how incredibly soft and supple they are I wouldn't use these for anything other than light office, retail or casual walking. A beautiful boot but definitely not for "boot" wear.

This boot fits and adapts to your foot very well. The leather is quality and they were some of the most comfortable boots I've worn. Unfortunately, I was not happy with the design; the toe was a bit squat and the boot made my feet look somewhat stubby, and they shouldn't considering I wear size 11. Given that, I returned them.

I've had these boots for over a year. As the other reviews have mentioned the leather is very supple, almost to the point of an easy rip if you aren't careful. Aesthetically, this boot is amazing-plus I'm a sucker for the historical context the company applies to every shoe or boot. I ordered true to size, and it feels a bit tight. The length is fine, its the width that is a bit too snug for me. I have a hell of a time putting them on (as I mentioned before, I'm worried I'll rip the leather). Even after a year, the width is an issue. Comfort is so-so... I couldn't wear these on a work site or standing on a hard surface for a day. It's not a serious work boot, you'd be insane to do any work in these! But they are made in the us and look stunning.
