I wanted something lower priced to get me through the winter. A previous post mentioned size running larger so I purchase a 1/2 size up. Well turns out that they were too big. My feet begin to hurt after wearing these for awhile, which is what happens when they are too big. Not the products fault, but I didn't return them. The in-soles wore out pretty quick. The boots are waterproof as advertised. I would purchase at a store next time to make sure they fit.
