I read quite a few reviews before purchasing these shoes. The most important thing I learned was regarding sizing. These camp shoes are one whole size off. I normally wear a solid Nine and have narrow feet. After reading the reviews, I ordered a Ten. Right out of the box they fit like a glove with a little extra toe room. The leather is soft which makes these booties almost feel like I'm wearing slippers. So far I've worn them under jeans. I ordered the brown leather ones which come with deep purple laces and purple soles that look great with the jeans. These booties seem very well made so I expect to be wearing them for a long long time. Well worth the money. Thanks!
