I love these boots and despite some of the negative things I read I bought them anyways. They are very comfortable. I wear 9.5 - 10 and 9.5 has plenty of room. If you have small calves like me they will be loose in that area. I have worn them about 4 times and the leather scuffed right off one of the buttons. I am going to buy some shoe protectant  to minimize future damage. The leather is extremely delicate and you could ruin them easily which is irritating because they are so expensive. I would buy another pair if they upgraded the quality a bit or lowered the price.
