text: First, let me explain my foot, as my foot and your foot are not the same. My feet measure 5.5. I have a small dainty foot. It would fit into the glass slipper, had prince charming found me. Having said that, this hiking shoe fits my foot perfectly. I ordered a size 6, as you need toe wiggle room when you go hiking. I will only wear these as a hiking shoe, and not a everyday, running around for errands type shoe. I've gone through a series of trying on different brands of shoes, to only send them back to Amazon. I can not believe, with days remaining until my big grand canyon adventure, that I finally received the right shoe!  In 2 weeks time, i will update my review and either knock a star or 2 off, or really jump for joy in an updated review if these shoes are really that incredible. AND too be fair to the shoe, I am reviewing these based off me walking around my house, in wool socks for the last couple of hours! SO yes, right now, I love them!
