I love these boots, very comfortable! Very well made & tough sole with plenty of grip. The leather does mark easily but does add character, I use a Punch water proofing spray too. As for the sizing I am a UK 12 with very wide feet (due to having 'flexible' flat feet) & they are a 'bit' tight. The material does flex a bit so they still feel very comfy, & will wear in better also so I'm not worried at all. They feel secure. The length is generous! So if you don't have wide feet I would maybe suggest a size down. Overall a very good constructed durable boot. They look just awesome with jeans! Will deffo be buying a second pair in a different colour! They are not for work wear but casual wear out :)
