My true size is a 6.5. I was happy to see half-sizes! This 6.5 runs true to size and is better for a medium to narrowish foot.  I do not have large calves. If my normal sized legs were any bigger, there would have been problems. The foot bed is very comfy. Just the right amount of cushion and support. The zippers are neat and they are very sturdy/smooth zipping. The leather is nice, too. The soles are really great and not-slippery, but also not too chunky or heavy. Also, I am only 5 foot 1 and these come up under my knee, but above my calf. And, the boot shaft does not slip or sag down. Its a perfect boot! Normally, this boot goes for $219, but Amazon had them on sale for $54.00 and I snatched them up!
