This is a great boot that is comfortable and flexible. “Business in the front, party in the back” with playful detail. Dress up or down. I’m a 9.5 but got a 10 to wear a thin sock. If you want to wear a thick sock, I would go half a size beyond that since this boot has a true almond toe. The toe is not rounded as it appears in the stock photos, it’s almond shape. Also does not fit my ankle loosely as it appears in the stock photos. Fits me more snug, which I prefer. But that might be because of my size 5’9” 195 lbs. I love the boot! Looks great with maxi and midi skirts.
