tosmall.very nice I bought one size bigger.These are as nice as low profile hiking boots BUT make sure you buy a little larger than normal.Purchased these for my husband. I love the bearpaw brand so I had no doubts of the quality. Definitely nice boots for a great price. He says they are very comfortable.I typically wear size 8.5, so I bought size 9 and it fits well.Don't forget to up a size.Did its job while hiking. I also tested this shoes on a creek and no water in the shoes.. i didn't submerge it tho..Way too small . Made for tiny people with small feet . Stay away from these guysI had read a previous review before placing my order about the sizes being small and tight at the toes. I normally order a 10-1/2 or 11 men's shoe. This shoe in size 11 is very cramped. I should have jumped to at least an 11-1/2 for this show. The quality seems good, but they need to work on their U.S. shoe sizing standards.The shape of the toe region in this hiking boot is shaped wrong. It's way too small and doesn't actually match the shape of a foot. These shoes are 10.5, which is my normal size so that's definitely not the problem. You can see in my attached picture my pinky toe hangs off the edge of the sole. This leads to all the toes being crushed together and painful hikes. Spent good money on these and will probably throw them out because I just can't deal with wearing them.
