I ordered these boots 1/2 size up and they fit my wife perfectly!  She has been using them in heavy snow and cold conditions and they have kept her warm, dry, and stable on the ground.  Although these are not perfect for icey conditions, and almost nothing other than spiked boots are, they have given her better traction than she had from her other boots.

These boots have a nice look to them which fulfills her desire for fashion as well as comfort and protection from the elements.  All around a very good buy and price.
