I carefully read the product description and customer reviews... and I must say, despite their reviews, these the worst pair of boots I have ever owned. They run far more than a size to big, which makes me wonder why Rothco doesn't just re-label the size. I wear anywhere from a 10.5-11, so I opted to order a 10 - thinking a little wiggle room would be ok. Worst case scenario, I could put in some Dr. Scholl's insoles, right? wrong.

The issue I had, was that the leather, like all new boots, was very stiff, so I couldn't tell exactly how drastically off-size they were. I knew I had a little wiggle room either way, but decided to break them in. Three days in, I knew they were WAY too wide, and over a full size too big. I bought some thick insoles, and they helped, but not enough to continue wearing them.

The quality of the leather, and the simplistic design are AWESOME, but these boots need to be brought in at least two inches per boot to fit the average size foot width, and have the sizes re-labeled. It's just ignorant not to correct such a simple issue. I don't understand how such a simple boot design can go so wrong.
