    I would like some feedback on sizing for those that have purchased. I wear a 10.5 boot. Probably go with a 11 unless I hear otherwise.

    my la crosse alpha sports fit fine in my usual full size 12, but if I was normally at a half size I would go up to the next full. It gives you the versatility to wear a heavier sock if needed.

    I bought a 1/2 size larger than normal, fits good with one pair of thick socks.

    Just ordered a pair of 3.5mm in size 12. It was hard to go away from Mucks, but reading all the reviews I think I made the right call.

    Well I just had my first bad experience with MidwayUSA this week. First I learned items with a quantity limit don't apply to the total value of your cart. I was trying to use a $20 off $200 coupon and the website kept telling me I needed to add more items even though my cart total exceeded $200. This is a crap policy!

    When I did order, I received a box from Midway the very next day. Super fast shipping.... However what was missing from my order??? The Lacrosse Aeorhead boots!. So I look at the order. Shipping info indicates the boots should be with everything else. Their website indicates the "Available","Instock", and shipped. So I call Midway...... "This item drop ships direct from the manufacturer and they are out of stock." Ship date estimated on 9/14". I told the customer service rep that this was horrible and misleading as I had went to Lacrosse's website first to order the boots and they were out of stock and the only reason I ordered anything from Midway is because they showed having the boots as "In-stock".

    Needless to say don't order the boots from Midway thinking they are "In-stock". I'll be lucky to see them before opening day.

    11.... But when I tried to ordering direct from Lacrosse I don't recall any size being in stock. So being that MidwayUSA drop ships this item direct from Lacrosee I am pretty certain you are SOL just like I am.

    Ordered a pair last night from Cabelas. It claimed to be shipping in 1-2 weeks. I should be good for October opener but you never know.

    I just bought a pair this week. They seem really comfortable; I've got a couple of stands to hang tomorrow so I'll try them out.

    I am also a 10.5 boot. I went ahead and went with a size 11. They felt a tad loose at first but I had a lighter pair of socks on. I ordered them from cabelas and had them in 3 days! Haven't had them in the woods yet but so far feel very comfortable!

    I bought mine at Bass Pro. This is my first pair of rubber boots so I can't compare them to other boots. They fit well; I typically wear 13EE and bought a 13D in the 3.5mm boot. I had a little slip in the ankle but the calf strap was cranked down as tight as I could get, I loosened the strap and most of the slip went away. All in all, I really like them.

    That's awesome. I saw them in person at Bass Pro the other day. They look like a great boot. I have no issues with my Alpha Burley Sports right now but I recommended these to my brother who is starting to hunt this year.
