These boots are great...I have big muscular calves and have always had difficulty finding boots. After ordering several boots that were all too small for my calves I found the Huntress. My 16 inch calves fit and my jeans fit inside too. They feel nice and soft to your foot. They’re also great to walk in. I wore them today for the first time and I just want to jump into puddles like a little girl. Highly recommended for dancer calves.

My heart's desire... ...I've wanted a pair of these since I went all Princess Diana-crazy in 1981. After twenty-six years, I finally got my own pair. They are extremely comfortable, with or without socks, but I definitely recommend ordering a size smaller...I'm a pretty true size 9, but the size 9 Huntress was very, very big on me. I exchanged them for the 8, and there is still room to spare for a pair or two of thick socks (which I will need because I plan on using these for all but the bitterest winter weather). I'm glad I ordered the Huntress model - I have big kickboxing calves and these still fit over jeans. They look just as great as they do in photos, and while I'm definitely not a "label" person, I have a little frisson of delight when I see the Huntress tag on the front of the boots. Even the box is a little more special than the standard shoebox. Best of all was the service I received from Zappos. I am so impressed; I will definitely encourage my friends and family to shop here too.

Finally!! I have wanted these boots ever since I tried on a friend from Scotland's Wellies!! They finally were on sale in the states about a year ago, but the regulars were too tight on my calves. The Huntress boots, however, fit perfectly!!! If the only tall boots you own are Frye or stretchy leather, than these are the boots for you! About sizing: I wear an 8 ½ and bought an 8 which still have room for thick socks. Had they made 7 ½ they would have been perfect so definitely go down one size if you wear a whole number size and ½ if you wear a ½ size. I love the boots! They are comfortable, very cute and extremely well made. Zappos shipped overnight for free and they arrived next day (even though I ordered at 8pm Eastern), which was just the cherry on the sundae. I could not be more pleased.

Good Quality Rain boots - I first ordered the original "Hunter" and it was too snug on my calf. I wanted to be able to tuck my pants into the boots so I exchanged then for the "Huntress." They fit perfectly and are much more comfortable for me. I do wish the label said "Hunter" as opposed to "Huntress" on the front, but in the end I'd rather be comfortable! These are very traditional looking rain boots. I think there are some cuter ones out there, but I am hoping these will last me forever and will look cute regardless of fads because of their classic styling. They are very comfortable and I am sure I will spend many mornings commuting through slushy city streets feeling very grateful for my Huntress boots! By the way I normally wear an 8 but definitely needed the 7.

Great rubber boots for large calves - I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered a size smaller, but they were way too small. I exchanged them for my usual Euro 38 and they were fine. They fit over my calves and I can even tuck in pants, great for gardening and slogging through mud!

Love these boots! I have been trying to decide on a good pair of rain/winter boots that are more functional than necessarily stylish. These boots wound up being extremely functional but really stylish looking as well. I have taken my dog for long walks in the mud and rain in them and they are comfortable and my feet stayed warm and dry the entire time. I look forward to trying them out in the snow. I did order them a size smaller than I wear normally (I wear an 8 and ordered a 7) and they fit perfectly with a good pair of socks; they would have been huge had I ordered the 8. These boots are definitely worth their cost.

I needed a pair of rain boots. Boots that I previously owned had to be given away because of a strong rubber smell that never went away. No smell with these boots. I love my new "Wellies" and they're very comfortable but order a size down. Originally ordered an 8 but had to return for a 7 which is still generous and can be worn with a heavy sock. Also, "Huntress" is good for smaller people as the shaft isn't as tall as "Hunter" version. Don't be concerned about the circumference being too large. My legs are thin and it's perfect with pants over the boot or tucked in. I am looking forward to the next rain storm.

Hunter Huntress - My long lost search for rain boots that fit my wide calf is over! I can even fit my jeans inside. All they need to do now is make the Huntress in all the colors that the regular Hunters come in. I'm normally a 7.5, so I ordered the 38 and they fit perfectly. Zappos customer service is the greatest!

Huntress - I like my boots a lot. They offer quite a bit of support for a rain boot. I got my regular size at first and they were too big, but, I got one size smaller and they fit perfectly. They are also pretty warm even with out the lining.

Hunter vs. Huntress - I am so grateful that Hunter decided to make the Huntress boots!! I’ve been eyeing the Hunter boots for a while and unfortunately I have really big calves and can’t fit in most standard sized boots. I’ve ordered a pair of Hunter Originals just to try them onto see if I’d get lucky…well, no luck there and I was debating whether I should get the Huntress instead because the pictures of the Huntress boots didn’t really look that great and the shaft is a couple inches shorter (comparatively speaking to the Hunter Originals). Long story short, I ordered the Huntress boots in Navy and was amazed how great it looks and how well it fits. There’s even room for me to tuck in my jeans. So ladies, if you have big calves like me, you’ll love these boots. They actually manage to make my calves look slimmer, it’s magic. =)

Great rain boot - Great rain boot for people with short legs and wide calves. I like them a lot and would recommend them to anyone.

Puzzled by size - I ended up with a 39 and still am not happy with the size. The 38 is too small in length but perfect in width and the 39 is too long and too wide. I am a US 7 1/2 so I guess I really would need a 1/2 size in this which they don't make. With a shoe insert and a thick sock I think it will be ok. It definitely gave me room around the calf unlike a lot of boots but it didn't scream ultimate comfort since it was loose in so many other places. It is serviceable but I was really hoping for outstanding for the price.

I’m a big girl... But I am not that big. I originally purchased a pair of women's Hunter Originals, only to find that they were so tight on my calves that I thought I'd need them to be cut off of me. I then tried men's and found them the same way on my knees. Third time was a charm. The Huntresses allow for wider calves, though they are still just a tad snug. Beyond that, they are incredibly comfortable where it counts most with excellent arch support and just enough of a heel. Plus they look great.

I LOVE these boots! I love these boots - they are so comfortable, functional and I just plain LOVE them! I couldn't be happier, now I just have to find the socks they make to go inside them. A very HAPPY customer!!!!

I normally wear a size 7 ½, but the 7 fits well and even leaves room for thick socks. So far I'm very happy with this boot.

I love rainy weather - These are my first pair of rubber boots ever, and they are incREDible! I would say they run a bit big, but I tend to wear a few pairs of socks when I wear them. I worked in the garden today, and just hosed em down when I was done. So fun and great, I highly recommend them.
