Scarpa, Zodiac Plus GTX Backpacking Boot - Women's sz 40.5

Bought these for the John Muir Trail in 2022. Ultimately they were too small.amd I learned that on the trip! I wore them for 12 days totalling 170 miles and haven't worn them since. just gave them a wash, and condition and they look great, see the photos for accurate condition. They are super grippy, durable, water proof, all things you want for a backpacking trip on normal terrain or harsher conditions like shale and snow. Size is 40.5 I'd say these are best for a 7.5- 8. The foot really expands when backpacking. I am an 8.5/9 and these felt too small with a smartwool sock and normal swelling after hiking.
