The Hunter - the perfect rain boot! After many miserable and wet spring days, I have finally purchased the perfect boot! I was looking for something preppy, classy (as classy as these get), and timeless. If I must wear rain boots on my morning commute, then I should look good while I'm at it! (If these boots are okay for the British and Helen Mirren in "The Queen", they are fine for me, too!) These boots keep my feet super dry and are actually really comfortable. All Hunter boots are hand made and you can tell the quality is really excellent. The $100 price tag seemed steep for rain boots, but I will have these forever. Plus the sole is great and prevents any slipping or sliding on wet sidewalks. They pair wonderfully with a cute short skirt for wet weekends. The sizes are unisex, so I bought my typical women's size 9. Since they only come in whole sizes, I was worried the 8 would be too small. The 9 feels slightly large, but nothing a thick pair of socks can't fix. Overall these boots are great and I would highly recommend them!

Great Rain Boots! These boots reach up to the knees. They're great for walking in the rain, and they're super comfy. Most rain boots are stiff, but not these! They also fit true to size.

Red rubber rain boot rave - I love my Hunter red rubber rain boots! They are a perfect fit, very comfortable, and look great! I love the color, it is definitely red, but not flashy. I was hesitant about paying close to $100 for rubber boots, but they are well worth the money. Five stars all around for Hunter's beautiful red rubber rain boots! I love my red rubber boots!! I love my red rubber boots!! I love my red rubber boots!!

Functional and cute - I bought these for a fishing trip to Alaska because I wanted something that was fashionable and cute. These worked perfect! They kept my feet dry, but were also extremely comfortable. I was a little worried that the rubber sole would make me slip on the boat surface, but they stayed put. I was the talk of the trip with my yellow boots! Now I want to go somewhere rainy so I can wear them again!

Sizing note - On the website for the Hunter Boots, it says they ran small. So if you're a half size, you should order one size up. That definitely isn't the case. I am a perfect size 7.5, I wear it in every shoe and the 7 fit perfectly. The 8 was way too big. So I would recommend not ordering up a size.

Great Shoes Very Comfy - I would recommend these to any one who lives in the northeast and has to deal with the rain and snow. Very comfy and great looking for rain boots. I warn all that upon ordering they run about 2 sizes to big. Above all their customer service is just amazing and very helpful down to a hand written thank you note!

Great pair of Wellies! Great pair of wellies that have definitely made this exceptionally rainy summer much better! They run a little big, but nothing a pair of thick socks won't fix.

Best looking boots in the stables! The foot is 1/2 size big but that is what I want in a pair of muck boots so I can wear extra socks in the winter. I run so my calves are in shape which makes these boots snug around the calf since I tuck my pants in to keep them clean. This may be a problem for someone with heavy legs (Hunter does make another boot that would work). I love the fact that they do go up almost to the knee. The buckle on the side is truly decorative, as the boot itself is snug enough. (They do make boots that actually have the pleat there that can be tightened)

Makes you wish it would rain every day... I am so excited to finally have a pair of Hunter's. I only wish I were a true 9.5. These definitely run a half size large! I prefer to wear them barefoot, but socks do help. A full size down would have been too snug in the toes and I don’t think that is a good thing. These are so well made, the lining is very soft and the insole is not removable! I had a pair of cheaper boots and the insole came out all the time. I only wish I could afford to buy a pair in every color!

Worth it - I decided to invest in a good rain boot after thanks to the crappy New York weather and after a long hunt this one seemed like the best option (after reading the perfect reviews here). I got my usual size 8 and it is definitely large but I’m still keeping it because I figure in the winter I will both be tucking in jeans and wearing thick socks so this will still be roomy enough for that. Other than that the shoe comes up almost to my knee, I like that too. I got the red and it’s a good true red. I’m not a fan of rain boots with vegetables and fruits on them. I still think the black one would make the best investment but the red is really cute too. Overall the quality is good, they do not have an overpowering rubber smell and are comfortable.

Great rain boots - I have been looking for cool rain boots for over a year, and was thrilled to finally find these Hunters. They look great in person, and, unlike most wellies that I've seen, they come up all the way to the knee. They do run very big...I am usually an 8-1/2, so I ordered an 8. I kept that size, since they are okay with a thick sock, but if I were doing it again, I would definitely go for the 7. They kept my feet totally dry in a deluge the other day, and the grip on the bottoms is great for slippery NYC streets. Love them.

These boots cost more than the molded plastic boots sold everywhere, but the quality is definitely there. The real rubber feels sensual on my legs and the comfortable support in the foot is miles ahead. I like wearing mine with medium weight wool socks and can walk in them all day. Of course they are great for rainy days or wading through ponds and streams. I've occasionally gone in a bit too deep, but that feels kinda sexy too, and they dry out quickly. Worth the extra money for classic looks and quality!

Like firemen's boots - I guess I'm in the minority, but I wasn't crazy about these boots. They're incredibly thick and heavy-duty, like firemen's boots. The whole boot was very large (not just size-wise, but the shaft was way too big around my calves). I didn't find them comfortable to walk in because they are so heavy. I guess if you're looking for a real industrial rain boot, these would be fine. The quality definitely seems to be top-notch.

She's thrilled - The hunter's original was for my daughter. I gave it to her as she was packing to return to college. She loves them - I'm a hero! Thank you.

You get what you pay for, these are worth the money spent! These boots are great! While they are more expensive than other wellies or rubber rain boots, they are high quality and seem to be designed well. I have purchased cheaper rubber rain boots that either had a terrible rubber smell that never went away or they were cheaply made. You get what you pay for and these boots show that. Like others have said in their reviews, these boots run big. I would order at least 1/2 a size down, if not a full size. I went down a full size (I wear a Women’s' 9 and bought the equivalent of a Women's 8) and they fit perfectly with room to spare for warm socks. I am thrilled with my purchase. I even got them one day after I ordered them!

Cute willies - This is a very cute willie, very good quality. The soles are a bit heavy. I find it very hard to run with these (if I’m late for the subway, forget!). After reading all of the reviews, some say is true to the size, some say half size larger or full size larger; believe me buy one size smaller than you usually buy. I am a size 8, purchase a size 8, and should have bought a 7. I'll have to stack up to some socks now.

Fantastic - They are just what I wanted! Jeans fit nicely tucked in or they look super cute with leggings too! They're my official barn boots. My jeans stay clean and dry and I'm completely comfortable! I can wash my horse or trudge through an irrigated field and I stay happy and dry!

Swamp boots - I bought these to walk around ponds/marshes/swamps for field work and they've been working out really well. No blisters and I haven't experienced any really uncomfortable rubbing that you normally get with regular Wellies.
