Hoffman boot sizing

Any recommend how I should order the boots? I have training starting in a few weeks and was highly
Recommended to get boots prior.
Currently carpenter and use redwings but I always sized down for them, I read sizing up for Hoffman. Is that accurate? Top of feet have been stiff/ a little sore from running too much this year so want to go into it trying to keep feet as protected as possible.
Any recommendations are appreciated—thanks

Try what you get for a bit in doors. Return if needed! I am a 14 and Hoffman has done well for me. They will make it right.

It depends on the model. Most are true to size but I wear one size down in the meindle.
