Arrived on time. I oredered a 1/2 size  smaller as these boots run large and real leather stretches, this was perfect for me and they fit great. I decided to break these in by wearing them bartending the first night they arrived - 8 hours on my feet. End of the night my feet STILL felt amazing. Thats saying alot for a brand new pair of boots. The ONLY reason I am giving them 4 stars is because the leather tightness on each foot was different. My right foot was tight as the new leather should be, and my left was loose like they had been stretched, with wiggle room, so my feet felt really odd. If I hadnt need them to ride in right away I probably would have returned them and asked for them to be fixed. Im used to it now though and everything else about these boots I love.
