I ordered in a size 7 in these boots and they fit great. I have purchased other items from Timberland and know that I fit a half size down from my normal size (7.5)... The only problem I encountered with these boots is that I have to wear thick thick socks with them because the part with the lower buckle, front of ankle(ish) area, is kind of roomy. Keeping in mind that I have tiny ankles! The lower buckle does not tighten any more to cinch the boot down over your foot, simply for looks.
