These boots were both too large and too small. I wear a 6.5 and ordered a 6.5. The shoe fit was too large and the calf too small. I'm petite (maybe that's the problem?) and athletic (a problem too?) so maybe that messed up the sizing but I don't usually have problems purchasing boots.  Glad that I have Prime so that I can return them at no charge. I've wanted to get a pair for years and the quality was amazing but sadly they have to go back.
