I was worried when I got them about them being too small but the fluff on the inside did squish down a bit and now they fit very well. I love the soft fur. I sprayed with a water repellant shoe spray and they did just fine in the snow. Some times I do get a little fur on my work pants, so it sheds a little but not bad. I generally wear a 7.5 or 8 so I went with 8.
