I like the detail of this boot. The style is fresh, different, very unique. I usually order up a half size in boots to accommodate socks. I did so with this boot and found it to be unnecessary. I'd say order your true size in this boot. My heel slipped too much. I love how fitted the calf area is. I'm a 14" calf and I was able to wear with leggings and skinny jeans even bare looked great. The boot is nice and sleek, well cut. The foot bed is comfortable (only tested in the house) & generous for toes. My only complaint is the look of the leather (in the blk color,) it reminded me of water resistant material.  The leather is not shiny or too dressy but extremely opposite.  I kept touching & smelling the leather. I even read the label to verify the validity of material. They were nice, but I kept thinking I'd end up wearing them in the rain. Since I am not in need of galoshes I've returned them. I will reconsider if the price lowers to a galoshes spectacular deal :)
