These boots are so comfortable - Clarks are hands down the best well made, comfortable boots I’ve owned that are priced well. I have different styles and letting these ones go. As pictured and could use a polish, but they still have a lot of life in them. Size 7.5 I am usually a size 9 in athletic shoes and 8.5 in a taller Boot by clarks (for reference). These fit a bit snug for me with socks.
