Just home from 8 days hunting in the Rockies, snow, cold and lots of mud. With full understanding these are inexpensive boots here is my experience. As other comments stated these boots are at least a half size if not a full size larger than noted. I assume this is to allow for heavy socks? Take this into consideration before ordering a pair. They were water tight, no leaks, I found them comfortable during the hunt as well during heavy pack outs. My only real criticism would be the claim of 400g of insulation. Compared to other boots with 400g I own my feet got cold and stayed cold much faster and longer with these than others. But for an occasional use boot the price is right for quality recieved.
