These are great the only problem is they are a bit big on me. I am a true 8 and these would fit an 8.5 to a 9 depending on the socks you wear. They seem like they would be a bit snug on a 9.5 but the wool will eventually be worn down with wear allowing for more room. They are extremely warm, sturdy comfy and are in great shape. I only wore them a handful of times and there is no real sign of wear. Some of the marks on the shoes is just dirt I haven’t cleaned from the few times I wore them.
