Boot shopping has been a chore since most boots are too narrow & hurt my feet. Not only are these stylish & well-made, they are super comfortable!

I wear an 8.5 (usually wide) and was able to order a regular 8 1/2. The breaking-in process was quite short & I've been able to wear these comfy boots for hours of shopping, walking in the city -- with no problems at all.

Others have mentioned the shaft being too wide, but I find it to be just right with anough room to tuck in skinny jeans. I guess it's just my personal preference not to have a boot too tight on my calves.

Also, the rubber soles make me feel secure on wet surfaces. I recently waterproofed the boots so I can wear them in the rain/snow without fear of ruining the suede.

Lastly, the suede is not showing any marks yet. I'm not always so graceful with any shoe & am happy that these lovely boots do not show every bump and scuff.
