I needed a good boot for work and decided to try this Croc boot. My feet take a lot of abuse because of my job and I needed something different than the boots and sneakers I had been wearing. After reading a number of other peoples reviews on this boot and other Croc shoes, on Amazon and the Croc website, I decided to order a size larger than what I normally wear. That turned out to be the right thing to do, if I'd bought my regular size I think the boot would've been too small. In my old shoes my feet were hurting and aching to the point of feeling too painful to walk very well. I felt practically crippled by the end of the work day. My feet feel much better now with these Croc Cobbler Boots and do not feel practically destroyed by the end of the work day. My feet feel great after work now, no extreme aches and pains. These shoes have plenty of room. They do not rub on my toes or heels and the arch support seems good so far.  These shoes work great for my feet. They are very comfortable and seem well made. I haven't had them long and my job is very abusive on shoes and feet so we'll see in the long run how they hold up, but so far they are working great for my feet and and my job. I highly recommend them especially if you have a job where you are on your feet all day.
