Ranked #73 - Women's Hiking Shoes

Ordered these in a 38 and a 38.5. I normally wear a women's 7. The 38 was too snug, and the 38.5 is just barely too big. If they made a 38.25, I'd be in heaven.
Other than the slightly too loose toe box, these shoes are great. I've walked 2-3 miles on pavement in them, and felt like walking on air. On the trail, they grip like crazy and are good on ankle support. Looking forward to putting many more miles in on the trails in these puppies. They are a bit warm, so be sure to wear light socks or breathable wool socks, if like me, you have to wear thicker socks to get the right fit.

Update: A full hiking season and a slot canyon later, I'm still totally in love with these shoes. They are water proof as long as they are not completely submerged, and feel like you are walking on air no matter how far you go. Only downside is that if the back of your ankles are not yet callused, you'll end up with holes in your feet. I tape my heels with climbing tape under my socks, and could go forever in these. I highly recommend them.
