I made this purchase after reading all the reviews. Some said they run big, and some said they run small. I normally wear an 8 1/2 so I just went with an 8 hoping that was the right choice. I am glad I did. They do run a little bit big, but since I had chosen to buy a 1/2 size down they fit great. I love the camo and they seem to be made well. I haven't worn them yet but I am anticipating they will do great on rainy days.
