I was looking forward to getting boots that would fit me since I had foot surgery (involving amputations) and permanent swelling due to diabetic complications.  However, this boot is so narrow at the top that it would only fit a woman with very narrow ankles.  It doesn't make sense that a woman wearing 11-4E would have a narrow ankle.  Even with zipping down each zipper, it was futile to get on even with my daughter's help.  Since my daughter wears 11W and seeing how narrow these boots look (even before us trying to get them on me), I told her to try them on.  Lo and behold, the boots fit her.  By the way, she has narrow ankles and they were not very easy for her to get on.  Anyway, my daughter has new boots and I'm left with no options left for something to wear outside if I absolutely have to go outside in snowy weather.  Bottom line, these boots run small.  I'm currently wearing footwear in 2-3E, so I fully expected that these would fit.
