Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I want to leave a solid review here because it took me some time to purchase these and I read numerous reviews prior to. Sizing is confusing, I wear an 8.5 womens. I went with the 8W (not to be confused with Wide, the W stands for womens). I sized down because I didn't want extra room in my boot. I tend to prefer my shoes on the tighter side, plus I was concerned the extra room would cause blisters from friction and movement (as my Frye boots did when I ordered a size up). These boots are BEAUTIFUL. Exactly as I remembered from my pair I owned in high school. They fit tight on first wear, especially where the tongue meets the boot (the seam). So I wore wet wool socks for 3 hours in them to soften em up and form them to my feet. My left foot a slightly bigger than my right so this shoe fits tighter but not horribly uncomfortable at all. I wore them with regular socks last night for 5 hours and they fit AWESOME already. No discomfort at all. Super fast and easy to break in when it comes to a leather boot. My Fryes took months to break in and quite honestly, they still aren't nearly as comfortable at these. I'd feel confident wearing these all day or to walk around in alot. LOVE LOVE THEM.
