“Love these boots -- the style and the fit! They did take a few days to break in -- my heels were sore and on the verge of blisters the first time I wore them all day (and walked quite a bit in them too), so I was worried that they would not work for me, but after a few wears, they now feel incredibly comfortable and I have had no issues with pain or discomfort. I added the second pair of inserts that came with them and that seemed to help me a lot with the fit as they may have been slightly loose on my foot at first. I live in a place with harsh, cold, snowy winter (ADKs in Northern NY) and my feet have stayed dry and warm with good traction on slippery snow and icy sidewalks. So glad I took the plunge with my first (not my last) Blundstones! For me, they were true to size (I wear a women's 9 in US sizing).”
