Just received the boots. I'm a guy btw. These size 10 US/ 9 UK boots are much lighter than I expected, lightest boots I've ever had. They fit well, I'm normally a size 10.5. Might be good to look at a half size smaller for others interested. But possible 10.5 would fit me good also, but I hear going to Journeys store, where they have these apparently, is a good way to find out size. They're not as durable feeling as I would have figured and if I did pay $100+ then I might be disappointed. Luckily they were discounted a lot, which helped me decide on going with the deep cherry red over the black. But I'm tired of black anyways. Color is exactly as appears in photos. I'd think that I got the same pair as pictured in-fact. Overall for the price I'm glad I got them and I know I'll wear them often.<br />One issue I did notice is that the padding on bottom of right boot is a little waded up near my arch but closer to the outside of foot. It bumps up slightly in one area and I'm not certain if that's going to cause a problem after wearing for hours or walking in for a while. I'll see soon enough. They come across slightly cheap in quality but appearance and price, which I paid, makes up for that.
