If you know to size up in Bed Stu boots, these are delightful out of the box. I am an 11 in Bed Stu (between 10-10.5 in other brands). These boots are ridiculously gorgeous. The blue is even better in person (more muted than in the photos), and they are stunning on. I also have the Deuce in red/black, and they're equally wonderful. I have been wearing all kinds of Bed Stu boots and shoes for more than a decade. No other brand, for me, comes close on craftsmanship, comfort, and fabulous, fabulous style.
