Looking at the Darn Tough Womens Micro Crew -- do these seem any less tight at the top than other Darn Tough styles (or Smartwool, for that matter)?

My ankles tend to swell and when I take my socks off there is usually an indentation, with these the was none. HOPE THAT HELPS.

I would say no but fit and feel is very personal. The recipient of this gift is very pleased.

I am not familiar with these boots. If they are "rough-outs", no. Otherwise, just follow Nicole's caution.

Several of mine were very tight at first. After a little coaxing they work very well. Hope this helps.

They are not snug on me, I have average width. At this price I'd give them a try.

I am a 9 wide and the heel I keep clipped down as far as it would go, but I use the thinnest booties. A little play is ok if you have boots. They come with plastic inserts (that I don't use often) and that may make up the difference if your feet are smaller than mine. They are great fins though

I have the Large size and they're a tight fit without much flexibility in terms of adjustment (drawstring keeps them on and snug). Might want to try emailing the manufacturer.

PJ and M Search answered this the same as I would. If they go on like a pair of sock, probably too big. They are very comfortable, so you aren't going to feel pinched or restricted. They are inexpensive, so I would try the next size down.

I feel like the size of your foot has less to do with the fit than size of your ankle. I have very slender ankles and these fit snuggly with a sock underneath. I'm not sure I'd recommend them if you're on your feet as often, or for as long, as mail carriers are.

I'm pretty small too. I had to relax a bit and go carefully, and they're pretty big still. I like them for that, but I would suggest going with a 3/4" pair first if you're nervous about it. They were what I started with, for the same reason.

Might be. Wash and dry them first. They will be a snugger fit. Like them a lot though. Worth a try.

I wear size 11w and have wide calves. I wear the extra-large and they fit well. They are supposed to fit somewhat tight - that's what provides the support. From my experience, they aren't anywhere near as difficult to pull on as support nylons.

I agree with B.W. these are a tight fit for width. I got a large and i have size 11.5 and these were hard to get on.

Yes they are very true to size...that's one thing I really like about them. They are tough too.I just washed my first pair again (in cold water) and they are still very supporting and look great.

They've been working great for me. I would only add that it's very important you find the right size. That said, I'd recommend getting the "variety" pack at first and then, after figuring out which provide the best fit, order accordingly. Hope this helps--good luck.

That might work I can say the 5.0 are much warmer than the 2.0 ones. I wear them with a Shorty & sometimes with a long wetsuit. Other times when I wear them with a long one if I put the wetsuit over the booty it's a lot drier. There are still a few drops in there though after I do that.

Yes I would go up a size they fit snug. As they should !! You dont want things leaking out :)

Very good question I would say it probably would help them fit better for sure to help pull them tight. When my husband and I decided to try them we thought for how inexpensive they are worth the try!! I hope that helps they have worked for us great so far.
