Great boot, my new favorite brand in this category of footwear. The sole is very comfortable, the heel gives it some rise making the boot not so flat for those of us w/ problem feet. There is enough room for an orthotic which I added to support my arch. Theyre extremely well made, I wear a 7.5, and thats what I ordered - the fit is perfect w/ my orthotic and socks. I highly recommend and will be ordering the tall insulated ones for the colder months.
