I just got back from first outside walk with these boots. Normally a size 41 - I sized up to 43. I was afraid they might be gargantuan - my goal was to be able to have warm feet and wear 2 pairs of wool socks - medium thickness. The fit is perfect! It was warm today 31 degrees F, so not a great test, but there was a cold North wind out of the Yukon and my feet were pretty toasty. I am thinking that they will be pretty good when it gets below zero again. They have absolutely NO traction on ice - at all -super slick. Great on snow, small wet beach rocks and grassy trails but super slippery on big, wet rocks and wet tree roots and logs. Put 2 coats of Renapur on to waterproof them. I am happy with my boots. Even more happy with how helpful Brynn was in customer service was!
Finally!!! I have been searching for a warm winter boot for a long time. I had tried a few brands on this site, with no luck. I almost gave up, but decided to try this boot. I have finally found one that fits great and is warm!!! My foot is 24.5 mm long and , 9.5 mm wide. I have bunions, and high volume feet. I am usually a size 9 wide, or 40. I got size 40 in the smooth black leather. The fit is perfect. I can wear merino wool light weight socks and my feet are comfortable. I don't think really thick socks would work for me in this boot, but, it's not needed. I live in New England, and have been wearing these in single digit temps with below zero windchill, and my feet are nice and warm! I am so very happy to have found these boots!!! Thank you Anya!
We are overjoyed reading your review, Lynn! Thanks for sharing. Sounds like you found exactly what you need and we hope you continue to love them!
So I had gotten these in 39 before but they were abit tight. Decide to try them in them again but in 40, mainly because i wear thick socks for my cold feet. I have the walnut brown and needed a black pair. I am in love with the matt black but wish the sole was black too. Would go lovely with outfits that require just black shoes. Hence my purchase for the smooth black. The day the arrived, I wore them straight out of the box because I already have the walnut brown so I knew the would be comfortable. Can't stop raving about these boots. The width is one of the main reasons they are my favorite because my toes are happy. I can feel them working the way they should. Not cramped up and squished together and barely able to move. Some days I wear my thin toe socks with them when the weather is mild and the wool lining does a good job of keep my feet warm.
I typically wear a men's size 9 US extra wide for boots, or 42 EU extra wide, mid to low volume ,(my arches like replacement soles for mid volume), and I have wide fanned metatarsal to toe bones. These barefoot boots feel wonderful and are probably the closest I'll ever feel to walking on snow or ice comfortably. I don’t typically compare across companies but these feel and look a lot like Lem's Chillums if they were made high tops with better materials, leather and wool lined, with a fanned toe box. I am so relieved that these fit and I can use my toes to walk or drive in them in winter. That says alot because the Chillum's are my go-to favorite shoe. I'm so excited for these boots!!!!
Awesome winter boots. I suzed up to EU 39 from my usual size 38, followed by the suggestion on the website. They fit me very well. And they are warm. I added wax to boots to make the boots waterproof.
