These boots seem to be really comfortable after wearing them about a week. They do run a bit big as far as the sizing goes however. I'm a pretty true 9.5 but I can wear two pairs of socks or 1 extra heavy pair with these no problem. I ordered these because I was looking for a narrow at the top pair and these said they were. They were definitely narrower than anything I could find at the store but were a bit large in the calf area still. I decided it was great for extra heavy socks and they are firm enough not to slouch so I'm giving them a 4 star. They were a bit expensive but desperation made them more appealing.
