got these as a gift for my girl friend.  the right boot fits her perfectly, but the left boot is a bit smaller so it tugs on her toes.  don't know what the problem is, when both of the boots are the same size (7 1/2).  i returned the first pair and ordered a second pair of the same size (but different color)... the same thing happened.  i was going to return the 2nd pair too, but she wouldn't let me because she's liking them so much.  she says maybe it will stretch out over time.....
