Waterproof. Didnt need inserts that were recommended. I wear an 8.5 wide and I bought a 9 and inserts. Fit better without. HOWEVER, I will need to wear knee high socks with these, because I wore crew socks and shorts with them to walk in the rain, (About one mile on sidewalk) and following photos show what they did to me. Tops are rough and sharp. What I have feels like a rug burn, and I dont have particularly large legs. I got the redness on both legs, both sides, and the pictures show what they look like two days after wearing.

Dont wear these without socks! They are super comedy initially but if you wear them around for a few hours, they will wear a hole in your inner calf

I have a pair of Sloggers boots that I love (so comfortable & well made) so I decided to order them in a different pattern. I read a few of the reviews about irritation and skin injury from the top of the boot, but knew mine were fine so I ordered this midsummer blue pair. Now I understand why these new ones can cause that problem. Theres no fabric on the top edge and the texture is somewhat rough. I contacted Sloggers customer service to express my concern and the customer service representative said the newer boots have the fabric on them & not all the older ones do. I know this isnt correct because my old ones do & these dont! Im keeping this pair because I love the print and hopefully they wont cause a problem, but wanted to make others aware of it.

I have narrow feet but I do irrigating all summer and these fit my feet! Most irrigating boots are huge and uncomfortable. I bought some Sloggers 4 years ago while they were on sale and I used them hard. I walk miles every day through wet pastures down gravel roads etc. To this day four years later my original sloggers dont leak and are still useable. I even ran into the same person several times while wearing my "zebra boots" and he would always tease me about them giving me some good memories. They do stink after all that time though so when I decided to replace them I looked here and found my next pair! Buying the first pair was one of the best things I ever did. Now Im gonna go irrigate, move siderolls, and walk through shallow ditches without getting wet socks all summer long. They arent as tall as normal irrigating boots being meant for rain boots I believe but they work great for me!! I included a pic of my old sloggers with my new ones :).

This review is for the Sloggers rain boots in shiny black that I purchased off Amazon Warehouse Deals. I ordered a pair for $23 total because it was marked "used" with minor cosmetic damage. Since I was on a tight budget and I figured Ill be walking through the snow and getting them scuffed up anyway after the first use, I decided to go for the deal, anyway it was covered by Amazon returns. The boots arrived after 3 days and they are perfect! They look brand new and while they didnt come in a box, they came with tags and repackaged in plastic. I dont think they were ever used, maybe tried on but there is no indication that they were ever worn outdoors. My shoe size is normally 6.5 to 7 so I ordered a size 7. They fit very comfortably with socks and while theyre shorter than other rain boots, the height is good for me as Im only 51" tall. They seem very well-made and durable, and I love that there are little tabs on the sides of the boots to pull them on easily and also at the back of the boots to kick them off easily. I will probably leave another review after a few uses to see how they hold up. I am very pleased!
