I have the boot order 1 1/2 sizes ordered more, normally I have 38! It fits like a glove. I wear it to Nordic Walking and it feels very good. Nothing expresses or scrubs. The shoe can I absolutely recommend. But a warning I want to add. With the shoe you are extremely vulnerable if there times where is smooth. The going up like an ice skate! Would be grateful for a hint on how to prepare against the sole.
