“I want to love these, but they are in fact too small. I live in a warm climate so there’s no need for thick socks. I thought I was safe in ordering my actual shoe size which is a solid 8.5. But after almost a month of daily wear in hopes of some stretch in the leather, my toes still feel the top of the boot and over all tight. I love the lightweight and the look. Clearly a formidable work boot to wear around d the ranch. But I don’t know if I can keep them. Which is sad because I paid a lot of money for them.”
