Wanting Rainboots for 3 Years! Finally got a great pair!
I've been looking for a great pair of rainboots since 07. I am usually a size 4 in heels and boots and since there are no size 4 rain boots, I went ahead to look for a size 5. Well, size 5 is hard enough to find, but these are perfect!! Why didn't I think of looking on Zappos sooner? I was trying to get some rainboots for this huge storm to hit the west coast. I love these rainboots! Got them in pink, they fit very well! Super cute!!

We don’t have a lot of rain, but in winter we flood. I am 80 years and need real rain boots and not a fancy boot with heels. I have bought several boots from various places and given them all away as I couldn’t wear them. These boots are perfect. They are sturdy, warm, and keep my feet dry walking in the rain. I feel like a kid again splashing through the puddles.

Ordered for two daughters, sizes 10 and 11. Both too short (wide but short). The size 10 kid wanted to go up a half size (not an option). She kept the 11s added an insert for a perfect fit. She loves her boots perfect for to and from class.

It lasted me a few years but then water started to leak in from the bottom and the rubber part started to crack

I purchased these for my boyfriend. For me most rubber boots are just about the same with the winning feature being that these happen to be on the wide side to fit his wide feet. There's no extra padding on the sides so his foot feels very comfortable. This was our #1 priority in features - style wise I think they are just fine.

Purchased these to replace a cracked pair of rainboots, and have been very happy with them. Like most rain boots, these are not a particularly supportive shoe, but they are quite comfortable and easy to walk in. I wore these a lot all through my Canadian honeymoon and they kept my feet dry and warm. The navy color is very dark- almost a black.

Bought this shoe for my mom, who works a lot out in the garden. She loved it, it kept her foot warm and did not hurt her bottom feet at all.

Cute and comfortable. Wish it would rain more so I can wear them more often. Definitely getting another pair!

I bought these to deal with the soggy spring weather. I wanted something that would be easy to slip on an off at work or be able to wear out and about on a rainy weekend day. These fit the bill.
However, they are not perfect. The sole has limited traction but then again I won't be wearing them on ice, in fact since they lack any insulation they stay put when its snowy. In slush they'd be good so long as its for short walks. They also lack any semblance of arch support so they aren't going to be the best boots for long walks. But, they offer easy clean up and they are high enough to be effective in most any puddle. Speaking of height, its easy to tuck your pants into them or if you want to be a little more subtle, they will fit under jeans or khakis (straight cut) without any problem.
A word about fit, they seem to run true to size but they are flat and the toe area slopes downward which makes them feel less roomy than other boots. You can see this in profile pictures. At first this threw me off and I almost returned them since this allows for very little wiggle room. Now that I'm used to them its not an issue but just keep that in mind when you try them on.
Overall, these will be just fine for their intended use, a pair of boots to wear in sloppy, rainy, slushy or muddy conditions when I don't want to ruin a good pair of shoes. Think of them as cheap insurance so if this is what you are looking for, buy 'em and given them a try.

Tretorn Skerrys are good rain boots at a good price. They are not great rain boots, but for the sale price, they are hard to beat. I liked the fit of the tretorn: a bit big, and nice and wide. That works for me, as I want the option to wear thick socks under it. As with almost all rain boots, my foot slides up into the shaft a bit when I walk, but I felt it was much less pronounced than in most rain boots I have been trying on. (Note: If you have skinny calfs, you must try Kamik boots. The comfort level and fit around the foot is amazing. I have fat calfs. *cries*) The footbed was comfortable and since it's removable, I can put in arch supports or even warm sheepskin liners if I want. Since I do not expect to put a tremendous amount of wear and tear on these, they are exactly what I was looking for at the price I wanted.

This is a very nice boot,but there is no padding at all in the sole. It does run large enough to put in heavy socks, or as I did a thick innersole with padding and arch support. Once the innersole was added they kept my feet warm and dry through several days of hiking around in great downpours.

Very comfortable boots. Most rain boots are inflexible and tough to walk in but these are not. Only caution - the top edge will rub if you don't wear pants or socks with them.

I got these boots in September of 2012, and they have recently developed a crack at the point where the foot bends. They are great boots though, very cute and comfortable. I have a wide foot, and I didn't have any issues. There is no point in having rain boots with a hole in them, and I was able to return them, hopefully to get a new pair once my size is back in stock. I would recommend these!

I usually wear a 9.5 or 10 but bought these in a 9 and they're perfect with lightweight socks. Good for wet weather in urban settings. The height is perfect, not too low or high, and most importantly, my feet stay dry! I've had these for about 8 months now and no complaints.

So far I've been very happy with these galoshes. No signs of wear yet that others have talked about, but we'll see.

I purchased this boots to walk my dog in rain, water conditions. Due to this summer in NE I did use them once, but I do like them. Comfortable, nice style, but the quality is not great...they arrived defective and I had to use some glue, just after unpacking ...hope my job is going to last for a while. So the quality is poor, though they did well in water.

These are very well made, but I have a wide foot, and after wearing these in the house, my feet actually started to go numb, so I figured I had better send them back. I have ordered the next size up, we will see. Otherwise, I am looking into men's rubber rain boots as a possibility. I just want something well made and reliable that I can count on for years, not a few seasons. I did mark these as "felt narrower than marked," even though they are regular medium, because the rubber does not give the way a leather shoe does which causes them to be very tight without getting looser, as in rubber.

Nice boot. Color is dark, can pass for dark navy or black even. Works well in keeping water and mud off of you.

I am a firm 7.5 (all 7.5 shoes usually fit me perfectly, width included), and I think the 8 is a little too big for me, but the 7 might have been too small. They are comfortable, much more roomy than my last pair of rainboot's width. My pants fit inside no problem. Flat foot, I still might add a gel pad to the bottom to help with that, but the price was good!

These boots are super cute and really comfortable. These are far better than any other pair of rainboots I've purchased and seem to be of excellent quality. I have two small complaints, though they don't make me regret my purchase. The first is that they are very roomy (I am a size 7 and got a size 7) and not super flexible (not that I could expect them to be as they are made of rubber), so my heels come up when I walk in them. It's nothing that causes blisters or any issues or anything, it's just a little annoying. The second thing is, because of how short they are and their stopping mid-calf, they tend to "slap" my calves as I walk and make a corresponding sound. It's kind of funny.

A little heavy for the rain, but I like the simplicity in style and durability. If you're going to do a lot of walking, consider some after-market insoles so your feet won't wear out.

Great boots, but I'm more impressed with the service of Zappos. I originally ordered equivalent size 7, but the boots were too narrow. I returned and got the larger size, and had no problems with the return whatsoever. I love Zappos now, and will shop there whenever I can.

Before I found these rain boots, I was having the hardest time finding some that were a size 5, didn't have a print pattern, and were not shinny. The video says that it has a leather pull tag, but my boots didn't, which for me was a good thing. They are well made, have a great tread, and stylish. They don't look bulky but they sort of feel like it. It could be just because they feel a half size too big.

Comfy boot. If you are looking for a waterproof boot that covers your ankles, but doesn't go all the way up to the knee, this is it. The yellow is cute, makes you look like the Morton salt girl.

They are excellent for keeping your feet warm and dry. The fleece lining is adorable and functional. One annoying thing is that the inner sole slides off and bunches up when you are walking. Other than that I love these boots. They have been a rainy season staple for 4 years now.
