I have been looking for a boot in this style for a while, and bought these on sale. I'm typically an 8, but ordered these in an 8.5. The 8.5 fit fine, just a bit loose without socks but I plan on wearing them with socks so it's not an issue. My only gripe is the color. I bought these in Cognac, and I wished the suede was as vibrant as the photo. The boots I received were slightly lighter (almost a faded cognac), which looks slightly off against my skin. Besides that, these boots are very comfortable and stylish.
