I got this pair of boots for christmas...I wear a wide size and had a real problem trying to get my foot in the boot.  I was told about a neat trick for boots.  Before trying to put the boots on wrap your foot in a pastic bag and then try and slide your foot in.  It worked and the boots have felt great and looked good as well.  People have made comments on how much they like the boots.  Nice thing to keep in mind for this pair of boots is the stiching in on the outside so it never rubs your leg.
