I really liked these boots. They had all the elements I was looking for in a pair of hikers, all leather uppers, classic design, vibram soles, etc. I ordered a size 13 thinking they would fit since I sometimes wear 12 and a half in other brands. Nope. They were too small, but just by a hair, my big toe barely making contact with the end of boot when I walked (not something you want when hiking down hill). So I exchanged them for the next size up, which was 14 since they don't make half sizes beyond size 12. Unfortunately, the 14's were too big (sigh).
