Absolutely.
Do follow Ron's advice and size down.

I'm ever so slightly on the wide side of normal width. I went down a half-size in length per Ron's suggestion, which was definitely the right call. They certainly seem wide enough (despite the half-step down in length), but not unusually wide. Probably on the generous side of "D", but not more than that. The toe box is long, so even sized down your foot sits relatively far back (or at least mine does).

Huh? Maybe I don't understand your definition? I would call moving up 1/2 size as "sizing up" rather than "sizing down."

I am a 7.5D normally and took the 8D. They are all good. An awesome looking boot to ... boot.

I always confused about what constitutes "sizing up" as opposed to "sizing down", but it sounds like you and I had very different experiences. My standard US shoe size is 11.5. On Ron's advice, because the 7Y runs large, I bought an 11 instead. It was still, if anything, a touch on the long side.

I don't have the boots in front of me, but I'm 97.5% certain I'm recalling ithiscorrectly. Whatever it is Ron suggested based on past feedback is what I went with, and it worked out well.

But above Ron says, "Please add 1/2 to your normal size." I think that pretty clearly means order half a size larger than you normally would, no?

It is typical to ADD 1/2 size on the 7Y and the 74 last from Martegani.

Ok, I stand corrected then.

I missed out on this boot and if anyone here bought the 10.5s and wants to sell them please LMK. I am a 10E normally and that sounds like the only size that would fit me well.
