I ordered these for my husband. When they arrived, we were very impressed with the quality. We did have to return them because they were too small. I think they run on the smaller side so be sure to order 1/2 a size up.
The reviews which advised buying half a size larger are not that oldAugust 2012 and onwards, and so while it is possible that the manufacturer or distributor received similar complaints elsewhere and took remedial action, I think this is too small a time period for that to have occurred.
I give a 4 star review, because although I have some trouble with the fittingI'm not certain that this is the manufacturer's fault. To be fair, shoes are probably better bought in-person than online.
The shoes are well made, perfectly match their description, and I have worn them through several snowy/rainy days, and they were comfortable, and kept my feet dry enough. The interior of the shoe is cushioned and I had no trouble wearing them through 12+ hours at a time.

I purchased this boot because it was low rise and had great features, such as ease of lacing. Also, the boot is very comfortable. The uppers are good looking and are made of quality materials. However, the soles wore through within a few weeks and very low miles walked. I use them to walk the dog every morning at 1-2 miles. To use a tire analogy, I bought what I thought was a 75,000 mile warranty and got 5,000 miles. The lugs in the middle of the sole are hollow, very thin, and when the thin outer tips wore through, water leaked in. Right now the boots appear to be brand new with the uppers looking like they came from the box, but the middle of the front sole has holes in it. The heal is not even worn. DO NO BUY THESE BOOTS!! OR AT LEAST THIS MODEL.Best Deals on Nevados Men's Klondike WP Low Hiking Boot
After reading reviews which recommended buying half a size larger, I ordered 9.5 sized shoes for myself. My size is 9. They are however, big for meit's only half an inch, but still, it is slightly uncomfortable. I do not want to go through the trouble of returning it and ordering a new pair.The reviews which advised buying half a size larger are not that oldAugust 2012 and onwards, and so while it is possible that the manufacturer or distributor received similar complaints elsewhere and took remedial action, I think this is too small a time period for that to have occurred.
