This is a good looking boot and seems reasonably comfortable. However, there are a couple of issues that I've had. First, my usual size in Born is 9.5. In this boot, a 9.5 was too big, and a 9 fit me perfectly, even with thick socks on, so think about sizing down a half size. My feet are on the narrow side--I wear a B width, but used to wear AA, so a little narrow. The size 9 fits perfectly in length, but is quite snug across the foot and looks pretty narrow. I'm feeling a little bit of a pinch right at the widest part of my foot on both boots, but it feels like that will stretch out with a little time. So if you have a wider foot and if this boot comes in a wider width, you should probably get a wider size. Otherwise, so far I like it and am a big fan of Born boots.

Very comfortable boot for my narrow foot. I ordered an 8M, I usually wear an 8 1/2 AA. They feel so good on the bottom of my foot with the "wave" styling, but I am unsure if I will keep them as they rub my right ankle bone. I will try some heavier socks to see if this helps, if not, I will sadly return them. I would definitely try this boot if you are in the market for a pair of hiking boots.

The Wave boots were much wider than the Wave sandals that I have purchased previously. The boots really look like hiking boots. In other words, you can only wear the boots for athletic pursuits. The boots are not stylish enough for casual wear.
