I was a little nervous choosing a size in this boot as you read about how it does feel tight and you may have to get a 1/2 size bigger but also some get exact size and it feels fine.

I wear a 6 and stuck with ordering a 6 and yes, they were extremely tight getting on during the first wear but now after wearing about 5 times straight, they feel just right.  I noticed one shoe felt slightly tighter than the other but it worked itself out. I also would put baseballs into the shoe to make them a little wider. Be careful though, don't shove them in all the way or else you'll have a hard tiime getting the balls out.

I absolutely love these boots and am going to get another in color brown.
