I love these boots but I need to wear them with the Hunter socks, otherwise it's big. I'm a half size and was told to order up a size, but the best bet is to order DOWN a size. These are great for rain boots, but I find in the snow my feet get cold really fast, even with the socks. The box they came in was a bit beat up, but overall the boots were in excellent condition and I'm happy with my purchase.
