I fell in love with these boots a few years back.  I had been out of work for quite a while and was so happy when I found them after I started working again.  I bought them right away.  The shipping was pretty fast.  I put them on right away when I opened the box... They were a little too big.  I thought maybe if I walked around in them for a little... or wore bigger socks...  NOTHING WORKED!!!!  They killed my heals from trying to walk and they were so heavy.  I had a horrible time trying to do the steps.  I had to send them back...  I was very sad....  Why can't they make half sizes????  That's all I needed... a half size smaller...
