Well made boot. But, just doesn't seem to fit the same as in the past. I ordered down a size as usual, and even ordered a narrow width for my slightly narrow foot. I'm wearing thick socks, and have the boots cinched about as tight as I can get them, and I still notice heel slippage. Don't really want to go down another half size, for the loss of toe room. Guess I'll try another Belleville boot brand.

I was looking for a modern "jungle" boot, and this one fit the bill since it had the drain vents I need to hike through water and not get blisters. The morning after they arrived, I changed out the insoles with the Spencos I always use, put them on, and went out for about a ten-mile hike. This included trail-running and walking through water - all with ZERO blisters or troubles at all! I have since hiked into water over my knees in these and they dispel the water and have never given me blisters. I love them! Mine are Narrows, and I don't regret it. Thank you, Belleville, for making a boot that fills the role of the old "jungle" boot!
