I am really tall so I have larger feet. I also have flat feet so finding boots I like that also fit well and feel good are very hard to do. I can never find anything locally except for a limited amount of sneakers.  The countless amount of boots I buy, wear a few times, and then forever store them away is many.  I can tell this quickly that these Bates boots may be the ones that I wear for much longer.

I have been wearing these boots for about a month now and my feet love them. It is almost like you cannot even tell you have them on. They really do wear like a sneaker. On the few warm days we have had, my feet did not get too warm at all. On the colder days, these Bates appeared to keep my feet from getting cold.

So far they are holding up well. These are my first pair of boots with zippers on the side and I love that feature. I like these so much that I also bought another Bates model boot on Amazon.  I have not tried them enough yet to comment, but so far, these ones feel better.

For me, these fit true to size.
