These boots are the quality you can expect from Clarks.  They are super comfortable, fit beautifully.  I wear a 8.5 - 9 M.  I ordered the 9 and they fit well with a trouser sock, yet aren't sloppy with a nylon. Heal is comfortable, not too high, and much more versatile than a flat. Fits over skinny jeans.  I figure I saved at least $80!
