My foot measures exactly 10 on a shoe measuring device. These felt about one and a half (1.5) times larger and they are wide! Other than that, it's a nice boot and well constructed.

Read the reviews and bought an 10.5 instead of normal 11, fit perfectly. Width is a bit more than normal. Great quality, comfortable and looks great.

Normally a 9 but bought 8.5 on basis of other comments. Good advice. Good-looking, comfortable and sturdy shoe that seems likely to last. Horween leather is legendary.

The Foundry online looks like a good bet. I followed other reviews and bought 1/2 size smaller and they fit well with that recommendation. Unfortunately I purchased these along with a pair of Frye’s and the Florsheim Foundry Boot didn’t even come close to the Frye’s. Even if I bought the Floresheim’s separately I would not have kept them. I feel they were cheap feeling, the leather squeaked when I walked and they were very stiff and didn’t feel like they’d break in well. I ended up returning these boots and can’t recommend them.
I'd also recommend:
Frye’s, Redwing Heritage

These boots are excellent for casual cool look: blazer jacket and a pair jeans. The leather is very soft and light; your feet won't even notice you're wearing boots. No feet fatigue! I love them.

Goodyear welted repairable boot that should last many years. Leather uppers seem to be a quality leather, sizing is correct and what a bargain compared to others.

The quality of the leather on these boots is absolutely spectacular. The price point does reflect the quality of the leather and the added cost of production. However, this is the type of shoe/boot that can serve as a flagship line. The fit of the boots is spot-on and sizing is consistent and accurate. The only small issue that I have is that a couple of the islets have rough edges that cut the shoelaces. I will get a small file to remove the sharp edges. Despite that small issue (and several pairs of shoelaces), I recommend this product and would purchase it again in the future.

I normally wear a size 10 shoe and ordered the same size in this boot. I returned them for size 9.5 and they fit perfectly.

These are soft around the ankles right out of the box; nothing like Horween leather. They run about one size small in my opinion, purchase accordingly.

Just received my new boots and they look awesome. The upper is a highly processed leather that makes it feel soft and durable (almost wet). The soles are a little strange, so look closely at the pics. The lugs have a less dense sole material filling space between and this will help with less mud and debris getting caught in the sole, but may impact traction too. I'm using as a city boot, so this won't be a problem for me. The soles did squeak quite a bit against a hardwood floor, but seems to be dissipating. I order a 10.5 or 11D in dress shoes and got the 10.5 here. Length is right, but the shoe is a little roomy (wider) than I would have liked, but I will wear heavier socks with boots like this so not a huge issue. All in all, I'm pleased for the price and plan to keep these for a few years and get quite a bit of wear out of this versatile style.

What a beautiful cap toe boot. Well made and fits perfect. Used the info from others about sizes running big and ordered 1/2 size smaller. Color of the leather is very rich looking. Extremely comfortable right out of the box! This boot is a 10.

They are nice, I am glad I read about purchasing a half size smaller, they fit perfect with taking that suggestion. The leather is nice, they are comfortable and don't seem to need a lot of breaking in, I wore them a full day right out of the box and my feet weren't sore at all, I will definitely be purchasing another pair.

First off, extremely comfortable the first time wearing them. I have tried other trendy brands, but I found them uncomfortable and stiff. These are stylish as well and can be dressed up or down. I normally do not leave reviews, however I felt compelled to after trying on so many other brands that just didn't fit well for one reason or another prior to deciding on the Foundry.

Fits very comfortably. No break-in required. Soft, gorgeous Horween leather will get many compliments, as much as the timeless Florsheim styling. Roll that pant to show off, or wear down for a subtle sophistication. Either way is a winner!

Absolutely gorgeous Horween leather, combined with classic Florsheim style--complete with Old Skool pull tab. Instantly the most comfortable boot you will own. Thank you, Milton Florsheim and Isidore Horween for having children!!

Good quality boot. I wear them for dress boots with a suit and casual nights to up style with jeans. With the sale price offered at the time, I feel I got a great deal. These feel like good high quality leather boots that I intend to have for a long time. Time will tell. FYI, the initial squeaking wears off after the first 100 steps .
