I have a pair GT in 9 that fit like a glove. I usually wear a size 10.


edit - forgot to say I can barely get into these boot, even with thin socks, its a struggle. Sport cotton socks require a Serious effort, due to the tounge area being so tight. After awhile maybe that will loosen up but for now its not easy. Once in though...great.
I'd imagine some people sizing 1 down will not be able to get in? A guess.

I have a cherry black pair. Would you guys recommend I get a matching belt to go with it?

They're made of water-resistant leather so you can just clean them off with a wet rag, then use polish.

I wear a 8.5 in Allen Edmonds and 8.5 in red wings. Go true to your dress shoe size and you should be perfect.

No. They are more brown in that picture than copper.
