Couldn't get my foot in at first. Then I read another review and they said to use a grocery bag. This worked perfect and my foot slid right in. I went out and bought knee high hosiery and they worked. I ordered my normal size. I hope after many wears I will be able to wear with normal boot socks. The color, quality, smell, everything was great. I have been waiting to order Frye boots forever. So happy I got them!
