sorel women's tivoli ii snow boot, black, 9.5 m us

I was hesitant about buying these boots online as the reviews varied between very small, small and true to size and I didn't want to get it wrong and go through the hassle and expense of returning them. I am a size 6-6.5UK and I finally decided to order the size 7UK, working on the assumption that I could wear thick socks if needed. No need! The fit is quite narrow but okay for my slightly wide feet, and the length was perfect - any shorter and I wouldn't be able to wear them. So with tights and/ or a standard pair of socks the Tivolis are perfect. If in doubt go a full size up. They are plenty warm without thick socks anyway, and feel very comfortable even after walking for a few hours. So glad I took the risk with the sizing - these boots will be a staple for several seasons to come! FYI I own a pair of Sorel wedge ankle boots in 6.5UK in case that helps anyone as a frame of reference for sizing :)
