I went a half size down after reading other reviews, it was a good move. These fit very well, are tall than I expected but fit on my calves nicely (I have larger calves and not all tall boots fit them). They are cute as well as rugged. The goats stepping on my toes doesn't hurt with these ones! Yes, I use them for mostly farm work and this year with all the slush and snow I'm very happy I bought these! I have wider feet and they fit very well.
