Love these boots! Comfortable straight out of the box! I am a 64 year old female with large feet who in recent years has developed bunions, in particular on my right foot. So I was torn between getting a ladies size 11 which only comes in a medium width, or order the subject of this listing in a men's size 9.5, which is also a medium width I suppose, but a men's medium width.So glad I got the men's. I love them! Have worn them every day since receiving them. They are just wide enough at the ball of the foot area. They are perfect!They did seem a bit loose in the heel area at first, but most times I wear very thin socks so might have to ramp up the thickness of my socks somewhat. They are fairly warm. I live in central Texas so not a lot of deep freezes happening here (yet)! And the price was outstanding at Christmas time. I like the rubberized toe because I can be clumsy at times. And the color is just a perfect shade of brown!I don't herd cattle or rope steer, but I do work in my yard a lot and I tend to be hard on shoes. These are much warmer than athletic shoes I will say. This style with the rounded toe makes me not so conscious about the size of my feet. They look very sleek and flatter the foot. Haven't walked on much water, but they appear to shed rain well.I hope they last me for a very long time!
