I read reviews before buying these which said they run small. I typically wear a size 8 or 8 1/2. I ordered the 8 1/2, but they were even too small. Just return them for a size 9. They appeared to be great quality, and super cute. Excited to get the size 9 and see how they feel!

These boots are so comfortable. Super soft leather and no break in needed. Like the support of the high ankle style. Need these in MEN'S.

I absolutely love this boot! I will buy it over and over! Great for dressing up an outfit and super comfortable on a long hike. These babies kept my feet dry in the snow and the rain! Can’t recommend these enough!!

My sister bought some boots from North Face for a safari trip in South Africa. The exact same boot was no longer available, but she found these boots which looked comparable to what she purchased. I liked her boots so much that I decided to give these a whirl. And I love them!! They are stylish and surprisingly lightweight for such as sturdy boot. They are very structured (read: a bit stiff); however, I like structure because it provides great ankle support. Great for city walking and hiking in nature. My feet don't get hot walking in them on a warm spring day. And they are great for all kinds of weather and terrain. For example, I've walked in muddy ground after a good day's rain and the water/mud did not change the color of the boot. This is a high quality, well constructed boot. Looks great with skinny jeans.

Runs small, order a size up. Great waterproof boots, keeps my feet warm while wheeling around outside, I wear a thin pair of hand knit wool socks. I live in Kansas City, Missouri so it doesn't get very cold here but my feet are always freezing so these boots do the trick, definitely not for Minnesota winters. These look a little dressy so I can wear them for business/professional occasions. Easy to clean the serface.

I also have wide feet so normally size up but got a size 6 and they fit perfect, I've seen a few reviews saying they're hard to put on but just loosen the laces, these slip on so easy for me.

I bought these boots for winter in Chicago, and they have been great. I have been wearing them almost every day for 2-3 months and they are in great shape. They are easy to clean and made well. The sizing was accurate and they are comfortable.

They look great with jeans or leggings, great for slipping on to shop or for hiking. I love the liner and the functionality of the tab on the back makes them easier to slip on and off with no tie necessary.. the other reviews said size up 1, did that and they are a little big but I put in an insert and they are super comfy.

I'm so glad I bought these. I wanted some waterproof boots for my trip to alaska that I could pack into a carryon (i never check luggage!). These are nice and lightweight and comfortable! They are also cute enough to work into everyday outfits for travel, dining out, etc.

I kept an eye on these boots for a while until I finally decided to buy them. Best decision ever! Contrary to other people's reviews, I didn't have issues putting them on. They look super cute and are very comfortable. I got my normal size. Other reviews said to size up for super thick socks, but I am in California so a normal size is good. If you're hesitating, get them. Super adorable.

Love these new boots! I was looking for a "winter version of my Rothy summer shoes" and these are exactly what I needed - super comfortable, high quality materials and faltering design. I purchased them a half size larger and they are perfect with medium thickness socks. Thank You.

By far the best hiking boot I've ever worn. Super cute and comfortable. Could not be happier. Amazing support and warmth. Size up half a size to fit your favorite pair of wool socks.
