The slightly recessed lace eyelets enable you to draw the back of the boot in as you tighten the laces creating a nice firm wrap-around feel. It supports well while not cutting off the circulation. This is where the boot comes into its own for me.

I am a size 9 and tried both the 8.5 and size 9’s on, the size 9 had a little extra toe room whilst still being snug in all the right places. They fit true to shoe size in my opinion.

The key points that kept coming up were "comfortable, stable, supportive" etc. While I take information from those sites with a pinch of salt, these boots kept cropping up on many sites, so I decided to look through some consumer reviews.
