These shoes are great. Very waterproof, very comfortable, and cute too. I took off a star because the sizing was way off. I got my normal size, 10, and they felt way small. My toes were up against the front and they were just not usable. I returned them for 11 (I probably would have tried a 10.5, but it wasn’t available in the color I wanted), and they work great for me. Maybe a 10.5 would have been fine too, but the size 11s are keepers. I like a lot of room in the toe box, so I find these very comfortable. It hasn’t been too cold yet, but so far they seem very well insulated (i.e., a little too warm in more temperate conditions), and I’ve had to walk in wet and muddy conditions and they keep my feet clean and dry.
Love these boots! I took them on a two-week long trip to Japan towards the end of winter, and they were absolutely great in the rain, mud, and snow. At one point I walked in the snow for over an hour with these boots on and thankfully didn’t have any issues with getting my feet soaked. Not to mention, they are super comfortable. I still use them anytime I go on hikes or walks. They are my fave!
These boots are very comfortable right out of the box. No need to break in before a long journey.
