I couldn't afford Fry's this year....so I got these boot in a size 8 when they arrived I could not get my foot in them. I returned them with no problems except that I could not exchange them so I had to buy them again which was awesome because they were on sale. The second pair came in an 8.5 TAN...they fit perfect, good quality, VERY thick leather. however "THEY ARE THE COLOR AS SHOWN..BUT ..THESE TAN BOOTS ARE """DISTRESSED"""  which makes them look darker ( more of a dark brown ) Personally I don't mind because I have a tendency to scuff up, scratch and stain solid lighter colored boots at a rapid pace. Great quality boot for the price. I think they look better than Fry's.  I will be getting these boots in black too. I strongly suggest getting these boots a 1/2 size bigger.
