I've worn a pair of these shoes for about four months. Their great! I have problems with ankle-roll, so the mid-ankle height is perfect. They do appear to run a tiny bit wide, but not enough to be a problem. As with all trail and hiking shoes you should buy a 1/2 size larger than your dress shoe size. HTH

I have worn these boots on five 10+ mile hikes in the past month. I would recommend breaking them in before your first hike. Wear around the house and such. But I have only great things to say about these boots. Hold up prefectly and even though they are mid high, they have great ankle support.

They run true to size. I usually wear a size 10.5 or 11 and a 10.5 fit perfectly. But remember you will be wearing wool socks with these books, so going half a size bigger maybe the right thing to do. The boots also fit a narrow-to medium width foot. If your feet are really wide I would go with a different boot.
