Ordered these because I wanted enough space to tuck my jeans in. But since they are wide calf boots, the ankles are also cut for wide legs in general. I ordered a size 8 since I usually wear 7.5, had to exchange them for a 7 which were still huge. Couldn't understand it until I realized it was due to the boots ankle circumference. If you have large calf muscles, these are for you. If you have large calf muscles and "normal" sized ankles, these are definitely not for you. The red color for these boots are not the same as the darker red Hunter original boots. Exchanged for the original Hunters, hope they fit comfortably.

This boot is all wrong! My ankles were swimming in them and I don't have small ankles. The foot length was right, the foot width was huge, the ankles were huge, and the top of the calf was slightly tight. I don't have wide feet and usually expect to have a little extra space, but this was insane. I'm sad because the pink is super cute and I really wanted these boots to work.

Agree with other reviews that the ankles on this boot are way too big and make the fit very odd. I ended up just going with the Hunter Original Short Boot, since none of their tall boots fit over my calves.

I just got these boots in the mail and tried them on. I was hoping the other reviews were wrong but I agree with others, these boots are cut weird. The top was tight on my calves and too loose in the ankles. I have a pair of the short Hunter boots and they fit perfectly. I also feel like the support in these is lacking compared to the short Hunter boots I have. I really wanted a pink pair as in the winter I practically live in the other Hunter's and they don't make the short in pink.

I bought these to replace the Hunter Original, which were too tight in the calves. These fit great: I can wear the liners and tuck in my pants. Perfect for tromping through the Midwest snow. The ankles on the boots are a bit baggy, but whatever - I'd rather have extra room than not enough. I wear a 7 1/2 shoe and I bought size 7 boots. They fit fine, even with socks and liners.

About Hunter
If you want a place where people appreciate the benefits of a well-fitting, waterproof boot, Scotland seems a natural choice. Mr. Henry Lee Norris most certainly thought so when he set up shop with his master boot makers back in 1856. Originally, Hunter rain boots were designed for traversing Scotland’s rugged terrain and combating its unpredictable weather. Since then, the reputation of Hunter men's rain boots, Hunter women's rain boots and Hunter children's rain boots for performance, durability and outstanding comfort has become legendary worldwide.
Although their links to the present day cover over 150 years and an awful lot of advancement, there are things about a pair of Hunter rain boots that Henry would still recognize: the care, the craftsmanship, and the refusal to compromise on quality.
The first of the famous Hunter green Wellingtons were seen back in 1956. Ever since, they’ve been mastering the art of welly making for children and adults, by using the best of new materials, introducing revolutionary technology and replying on good old fashioned hand craftsmanship. What sets Hunter rain boots apart from the competition lies in part to a closely guarded secret process. The result is a much stronger, watertight boot that will perform under the toughest conditions.
Hunter is equally proud of the things that have changed and the things that stay the same. The weather's just as wet and the Hunter rain boots are just as good! Today, Hunter remains the preferred welly brand for men, women and children who like to work hard and play hard. Wherever your pursuits may lie, be they in a distant wooded field or amidst the bustle of city streets, Hunter has the perfect footwear for keeping up with your unique lifestyle.

I am moving to WA in a couple of months, so I wanted to be prepared for the rain. So I got these shoes bc the Originals were just WAY to high for my leg. These are shorter and the circumference was it bit wider. I also got a half size smaller. The boots fit with my skinny jeans on and it fit my foot pretty well,but still a little loose. The only grip I have about this boot is that the ankle area is a bit loose. I'm going to try the shoes on again today with some socks and think about maybe going another size smaller. I have to say that the customer service at Zappos is awesome! When I called originally to order the Originals they bumped me up to 1 day shipping and it came promptly. When I found out the Originals weren't going to work I called again and exchanged them for the Huntress. They didn't charge me for another pair, they trusted that I would send the Originals back. I literally got the Huntress boots the next day, even when I ordered them the night before at 7 pm!

I really wanted a pair of Hunters but they just don't look right around my calves. I would have kept them if they fit around my calf with some extra room. Great color, and quality. I would order a full size down.

Love my new boots. Great color and very sturdy. I bought a size smaller than I usually do after I read other reviews. The Huntress is great because of the extra width in the calf.

My granddaughter was a very happy girl when I bought these boots for her. They arrived in a timely manner and we were happy with the product. We will definitely buy from Zappos again.

Great boots. I immediately filled the tub up with water and splashed around and yep, they're waterproof. Glad I went a full size down, because they still feel big around my feet, but since there is next-to-no insulation, that means wearing double socks in the cold will be easy to do. They're pretty wide around the calf for me, but the height is just right (I'm 5'2"). I wish there were a tighter boot that was this height, but I'll take what I can get.

I love that the shaft of this boot is wide enough to accommodate my wider calves. I would have liked to have tried on the next size down and made a choice between them. As it is, these are rain and mud boots, and I got to work wearing them right away.

I ordered the original hunter tall but it was too tight, so I got these. they are perfect and awesomely comfortable. around the foot is a little loose (I ordered a size 10, which I usually wear) but still nice.

Love these boots! These are great! The color is fuchsia, but it's really just a hot pink. The fit is perfect, I ordered my normal size. I was worried about the calf width, because I normally need a wide calf boot, but these fit perfect, with a little room to spare to wear my pants tucked in. Definitely recommend.

Finally! Hunter boots that fit! I've tried two sizes of the original talls and found the calf unbearably tight. My calves aren't even that big! Of course, Zappos made the return and exchange a breeze. The Huntress is perfect! They do run big--I'm an 8.5-9 and the 9 is roomy, but I have the Hunter welly socks to go with them. The 8 would most likely fit, too. I love the Huntress!

I ordered these for my daughter's birthday and was not sure of the size - after a few returns for different sizes (thank you Zappos for making that part so easy), she has the perfect size and she loves the red high gloss! I will order from Zappos again and again!

I had high hopes for these rainboots. I love the Pillarbox Red color, which is a nice, bright scarlet. I'm short so the original Hunters are too tall for me, and the shaft width, while not uncomfortable, wouldn't allow for tucking my pants inside. I thought the wide-calf Huntress boots would be the solution. The shaft height is better; however, I still didn't have much room to tuck in my pant legs, especially for thicker fabrics like denim. My biggest issue though is the ankles. They are indeed very large and very loose. There difference in ankle support and stability between original Hunters and the Huntress style is like night and day. Even if I had the room to tuck my pants inside, I would still have returned these for the ankle fit/stability issue.

Great boots! Glad I went with the Huntress because I don't think the slimmer calves on the Classic would have allowed for skinny jeans. Love the red color and super comfortable. Ordered my regular size and they fit well with socks.

I ordered the huntress style because I was afraid the original hunter boots would not fit my muscular calves. In the size 10 the shaft was barely 14" high, and the top opening of the boot is about 17½" in circumference, that allows me to tuck in jeans if needed. I am pretty tall (5'10") and these boots are much shorter than the originals as well. So they fit around my leg, but are short. Also the ankles are a bit baggy. The foot size is a bit big but that is mostly in width, I think with my wool socks they will be perfect, so I do not think that they run large. Overall the color is great, and I know they will be more comfortable to stand on concrete winery floors all day than my cheap TSC wellies!

First of all, the apple red is a beautiful color I love it. I was so upset when other hunters wouldn't fit my muscular calves, thanks to years of soccer, but the Huntress fit great and was still a bit more room! But just so everyone knows, even on the tag it says fit for shapely and short legs! I'm 5'0 so the height is perfect for me, but if you're tall and have shapely legs, these boots might be too short. Overall it's been waterproof and have not experienced a leak like few have said, just make sure to take are of them. Hopefully these will last years.
