I live in a super rainy climate, and ruin shoes every year. I researched decent ankle boots, but was worried about size and them being actually waterproof. I also wanted something I could wear to work (as a teacher) if needed on a snowy day. These are cute but not too cutesy, and fit well with socks - they are actually Euro sizes, so a 10 is a 42, which is really more like a 10.5, which is perfect with socks, and means they are easy to slip on. The insoles are removable and washable. As it happens, they arrived just as it started to pour and we were headed out shopping - I wore these through 5-6 inches of standing water and through a downpour, and walked in them through big-box stores that normally hurt my feet and back. THey are overall comfortable, not worse on my back or feet than any other shoes, and my feet stayed amazingly dry throughout. Worth every penny.

I love these boots!! Very comfortable ... great for being out in any kind of wet weather and they are so cute and fun. Always get compliments on them. I have a wider foot with high instep so I was a little nervous that they would be too snug, but they are terrific! Would highly recommend !

I originally purchased these exact pair of rain boots at DSW for $59.99. I happened to be looking on the internet for other design options and came across this one at almost half the price! It does run large - I usually wear a size 8 and I bought these boots at size 7. If I wear thin socks, it even has room to spare. I love that theyre short rain boots, which makes it easier for me to slip on and off when Im taking the dogs out for a walk on a rainy day, but not TOO short (like their clog design) that water would get in while walking on grass. Im very happy with this purchase and plan on buying more!

I got the peony flower design and cant help but smile every time I wear them! A few things to know: * Like many reviewers have noted, these do run large. I normally wear an 8, but ordered a 7 and they fit perfectly. * Also as other reviewers have noted, the cute fuzzy insoles DO ride up. My daughter, who also has a pair of these, fixed it by super gluing the insoles down. I chose to replace the insoles with some sheepskin insoles I had -- and they work perfectly. I think the insoles that come with the boots are just a tad small -- thus they move around a bit and eventually ride up. The sheepskin insoles I used were very tight to the bottom of the boot and thus havent moved around at all. In summary, these are really cute, quality made boots. I suggest trying one size smaller than you usually wear and either glue or replace the insole. Hope that helps!

Cute boots, arrived on time & in great condition. I wear a size 8 - 8.5, but read the reviews and ordered a size smaller (size 7). I have tried them on with thick socks and they fit perfectly- just right! I will update when I wear them out in rain, but so far, so good! Took one star off for the crappy, soft inserts that move quite a bit when walking. Not a big issue thus far, but might have to secure them to the bottom of the boot in future. **UPDATE: Wore them out during the recent snow storm on the East Coast & they did great! Kept my feet dry & warm thanks to the fuzzy insert. Also, tread held it’s own on the ice, no slipping. Would def recommend!!
