Bought these boots for a trip to Chicago. I get cold easy and wanted something that would keep my feet warm and be comfortable to walk in. These fit the bill perfectly. Very comfortable for walking and very warm although a little hard to pull on through the heel. I did have to exchange them for a smaller size. I normally wear a size 9 1/2 in athletic shoes and 9 in boots, but since these seemed to be based on the K-Swiss Blade-light Recover Athletic Shoe (which I have actually never tried), I decided to order them in a 9 1/2. Had to exchange them for a size 9.
