This is my second pair that I ordered. I usually wear a 10 extra wide in my work boots from Rock Rooster so I ordered the same size for these hiking boots. The toe box is a little more narrow on the hiking boots so I sent them back and reordered a size 10.5 extra wide. Perfect fit! These hiking boots are so comfortable. I have some foot challenges and when I wear these hiking boots they all but disappear. These boots are more comfortable then any of my sneakers and have become my go to shoes. I leave them a bit loose when I take them off and when I put them on my feet slide right into them. Lacing up is easy. A quick pull on the laces tighten them all the way to the bottom then a crisscross on the speed laces and tie them. Often times with boots there’s a lot of tugging and pulling on the laces to get them tightened up. I’ve been a Rock Rooster customer and fan for about 3 years now. Their quality is always high and their comfort level is unsurpassed. I live in Arizona and now that we’re having cooler temperatures I’m looking forward to some desert hikes. I’m confident these boots will fill the bill perfectly. Lastly, I need to mention that they are very lightweight! Buy and enjoy!!!
