Love the look of these boots and they're very comfortable. They're a little snug fitting but I know they'll loosen with wear. I normally wear a 7.5 in boots but the store only had a 7, and they fit well! So I'd say they run true to size. I adore the tall shafts of the boot but not a huge fan of the pointed toe. Wish Ariat had designed the toe more like the remington boot, but they still look cute and the leather is amazing quality. I wanted a cute equestrian boot and loved the western flair of these. If you're on the fence about them, I'd say buy them! You won't regret it unless you have wide calves. I'd say 15 in. Maximum calf circumference would fit in these! Pictures are of me trying them on at the store because the lighting shows the true color well!
