I originally ordered these boots a half size larger than I normally wear because of a review that cautioned they run small. However the half size larger was too big for me all around so I exchanged them for my normal size (7).  The exchange process was amazingly easy and customer friendly.  The 7's fit very well and I will be using them mainly for outdoor working and hiking. I have added an arch support because I usually need more support than most boots come with.
