Overall:

Great boot, sturdy, well-made, good looking. Some sizing comments: my calves are too thick and muscular (16" circ.) to wear the original high boot; the shorter version is a bit snug, but okay. I am typically a 9 1/2 wide, with a high instep. I listened to some of the reviews and ordered down to a 9, which almost worked with thin socks (a little hard to get on and off), but did not work with a welly sock underneath. Had to go up to a 10, which is what I usually do with boots. FYI, the welly sock will work with the shorter boot; you just have to fold or scrunch the top down a bit.

Just what I was looking for!The wider width fit my big calves perfectly with a bit of room to spare. I usually wear a size 7-7.5. I ordered a 7 and they work just fine, leaving room for an insole and wool socks for the rainy winter ahead. Totally worth the investment, I'll never have to worry about wet feet again!

I bought these as a gift for my wife and as it turned out they run a little bigger than the listed size. I suppose that this is meant to account for heavy winter socks that are usually worn with them. The return process was speedy and my customer service rep was awesome. Overall, this was one of the better retail experiences I have ever had. And my wife loved her boots! They're so darn cute on her.

These boots are a perfect fit. I have a regular sized foot and it\'s easy to pull on. There\'s room for big comfy warm socks. They are not clunky like some rubber boots. Classy. Built to last.

These boots are very sturdy! I have a pair of Uggs and I'm usually wary of slipping and falling when it's wet outside; however, the bottom of these boots have a strong grip so I feel confident now. However, I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but my feet begin to stink after wearing these a while. I haven't gotten it yet, but I think there are welly socks that are sold. When I went to go look for welly socks, they only had it for the tall boots and not the short ones! Bummer!

I love the style and my color choice. With the welly socks inside the boots, they are not easy to pull off. In terms of comfort, they are a little bit stiff in the footbed. In terms of keeping my feet dry in the pouring rain and walking through puddles, they are awesome!

The Hunter boots are fantastic! They are not only wonderful for rain & snow (especially nice for cold weather with the Welly socks), but they are fashionable to boot! I originally ordered a size too big, but customer service was great - I called to reorder & arranged the exchange. The exact size I needed arrived the next day.

These are wonderful! At the moment I can't decide which to keep: the original or these original gloss ones! I recommend buying your normal size and 1 size down (if you're a half size, order size up and down). This should save you some trouble. And you should order the liners to see if they'll work for the size you think you want. I'm about to order my normal size to compare the 1 size down. Zappos is amazing and always provides me great service!

Love! Great for skinny calves and they are tall rain boots! Advice: 1) These may be 1 size too big for you or they may not be. My advice is to order both your normal size and one size down (unless you're a half size, order the size up and size down) because Zappos provides free shipping both ways. I'd also say go ahead and order some hunter liners to ensure your boot is good fit if you want to wear the liners from time to time. This should all save you some trouble. I'm about to buy my normal size to compare because I may want to wear the hunter liners. 2) If you can, buy when the temperature outside isn't crazy hot. I ordered a pair in the summer and mine had all that wax stuff released and they looked bad so I never wore them, but held on to them because I wasn't sure. I ordered some two days ago and they are great looking; no wax released and no dullness. 3) The original hunters are a matte color. If you want the glossy look, order the original gloss hunters (at the moment, I can't decide which to keep!). 4) Colors: merlot is a brownish red; the aubergine is a dark deep purple (I also cannot decide between the aubergine or black!). And thank you Zappos for providing me great service. I feel bad that I have to return some of the hunters I've bought because I wasn't sure on the color or size. It all means I keep Zappos in mind when shopping for shoes.

Overall:

Love 'em! Receive so many compliments. My advice is to order the original not the Huntress and the original is a little higher and, on me, they are a little wider. First I ordered the Huntress and and I sent them back because they were a little narrow on the upper part of the calf. They'll last forever, too. Worth every penny.

Overall:

My calves are curvy, not particularly slender. My kids have run off with my tape measure, otherwise I would measure. I'm a size 10 in pants & I am 5' 7 1/2". I bought this type of boot from Zappos; they arrived the next day! I bought them in black. I wore them when it was so rainy. I wore them to church with black tights & a black knee-length pencil skirt. I got so many compliments on these boots! I thought they would be basic boots. Well, Rachel Zoe recommended them on her e-mail; and they were less expensive through Zappos than another website I checked. They are a bit tight around my calves, but it keeps the rain from getting in. They are about 3 or 4 inches below my knee. They also have some ankle definition. I like the glossy look, too. Shiny rain boots. What fun! Prepare for some compliments. I have a bit of trouble getting them off from around my calf, but if I am patient & jiggle, it works in a little while. They are maybe slightly wide from side to side in the foot; but then again, it gives room for warm socks if it's cold outside.

These short rain boots and wonderful and cute! I was hesitant to get them in black (since Hunters come in so many gorgeous colors), but they've become a staple already. They run a bit large, but insoles or thick socks easily fix this. I totally recommend them!

I was recommended to this brand by my sister. As I, generally speaking, know nothing about anything related to clothing or fashion, I took her word for it. And I\'m glad I did. I love them! They\'re very comfortable, and well made. I really have no complaints!

Love these boots! They are slightly shorter and have a slightly larger calf circumference than the original Hunter boots. Love the color and gloss, it makes them cute and girly. I wear a size 9.5, and I bought a 9 - they fit great!

Reviewer: Marisa b from san francisco

Overall:

With the caveat that I haven't had a chance to wear them in the rain yet, these boots are really cute. I definitely recommend the gloss, as the regular can look slightly waxy in person. I'm 5'5" and have what I consider to be thick calves in that most boots are a struggle to zip up over pants. These boots fit fine in the length and the width and have more than enough room for pants. The long socks will also help putting them on with pants, since there is no zipper obviously to allow for tucking pants into them prior to putting them on. They are definitely big and bulky in the ankle area but they are designed to look that way so it will be a matter of preference for you if you're used to very slim fitting sleek boots. I can't wait for it to rain (and I've been a Southern California girl for 12 years before moving up north so that's saying a lot. I hate rain.)!

I have wanted these boots forever and finally broke down and got a pair. I am so glad I did, I love them! I want it to rain everyday! I read that other people got a size up and so I ordered two sizes to be safe. However I wear a size 8 and it fit perfectly.

I love these boots! I was nervous at first that they wouldn\'t fit around my calves, but I can tuck in my jeans and leggings without a problem. I ordered half a size down (8 from an 8.5) and they fit me perfectly. These are adorable, comfortable, and extremely waterproof. I look for puddles to walk through when I\'m wearing them. Great purchase, and I\'m sure I\'ll wear these for years to come.

Overall:

Great boots! I was worried about the taller version since I am 5'5"; thought they would look silly and not stylish. These are comfortable and keep my feet dry from the elements. I have worn them with jeans tucked in and with leggings. Not great for long periods of time; let's face it, they are rubber and your feet don't breathe. Hunter is a wonderful brand with exceptional quality. I ordered up a half size because I have a wide foot and wear thick socks in the winter. They are a tad bit loose, but I loathe tight boots. Buy them & thank me later.

I walked 3 miles in them today to test them out before it starts raining. They were great. I wasn\'t slopping around a lot or swimming in them as they were much more fitted to my legs and feet than I expected. Now I\'m looking forward to the rain! Stylish boots too. Happy to have found these!

Totally cool! Love these! Nothing like looking hot in a pair of rain boots. Recommend getting the liners though - need them for warmth! They look good, fit well and are easy to walk in.
