These boots are AMAZEBALLS. I have always loved Clarks shoes and this definitely continues the streak. These boots have great grip and can be worn on slushy snow days. Along with support they are super comfortable, the cushion inside the shoe is like a gel type foam. I got them in the grey color size 5.5 and they fit a little tight, because I like to wear thick socks on colder days I returned them and ordered a 6. I typically wear a 6 in boots, and a 5.5 in ankle boots. I read the reviews of the shoes and because several people claimed these ran big I bought the 5.5. I say ignore these reviews and buy your most typical boot size. Also, the 5.5 was a little narrow so hopefully the size 6 will be perfect. Lastly, the boots are a great leather, but they are a bit stiff around the ankle, but with time I think they will loosen up.
