I read all the reviews on these boots before ordering and took the advice of most reviewers in that the boot ran small and to order up in size.  Well, I wear a 7-1/2 so I ordered the 8 since they don't come in half sizes and it's a little large.  The 1/2 size would be perfect.  Afraid, if I ordered down to a 7 they might be too snug.  Great boot though, well made, very warm and even though I ordered an 8 still makes your foot look nice and small.  I've worn them with and without socks and have to say they are much more comfortable without and just as warm.  PLEASE START MAKING 1/2 SIZES!!
