These Hunter boots are the best!!! I have practically lived in them amidst all of the snow and rain. I wear a size 12 in women’s and the 10s are just right. As for zappos.com - AMAZING service. I ordered an 11 at first, returned them the following day, and within 24 hours the size I needed was at my doorstep. GREAT customer service, excellent quality on behalf of Hunter and one very satisfied customer. I’ll be back to zappos.com.

I have had a pair of Hunter boots for years and bought this pair for my husband to wear while working on his outdoor skating rink. I didn't get the liners for these but his feet are not only dry but warm with just socks on. These are truly the best rubber boots made out there! My whole family has pair and we love them. They are worth every bit of the money spent!

Just fantastic. Warm, utterly waterproof, excellent traction in icy conditions. Calves are wide enough to allow tucking-in of lots of pant-leg material (bulky jean material - okay! flannel-lined chinos - okay! snow pants - okay!). I notice a lot of reviews found Hunters to be larger than marked (size-wise); however, I am usually a men's 8 (UK)/9 (US) and had to get a men's 9 (UK)/10 (US) in this boot. Luckily, Zappos is awesome with the free shipping and returns.

The boots are great and just what I expected. Though I had to go to a different internet shoe company to get the liner to make this into an insulated boot. I bought these and Sorrel Joan of Ark for my daughter to choose from and she choose both. Now my other daughter wants a pair. She had to return her North Face boots because of size (too small) and will replace them with the Hunter boots. Zappos is incredible. I ordered a total of 5 orders over Christmas and everyone was on my doorstep the next day.

Excellent service and timely arrival of packages which were complicated by ordering Boots by UK manufacturer and Zappos had a sizing chart with EU UK US and Male and Female sizes. I still screwed up one of the sizes, but my fault and not Zappos as they gave me the chart with all the info on sizes. Good pricing also. Will deal with Zappos again.

This is an awesome boot! I wear them almost everyday. I have a springer spaniel and we love to walk off the beaten path. These are also perfect when it rains to help me get around with dry feet. I bought mine in the Hunter Green and they are very stylish. I love these and would recommend to anyone.

I ordered the Hunter boots to replace my old rain boots and snow boots that ripped. I don't have large calves by any means so I was really surprised that the Women's Hunter Original Gloss (in Graphite size 8) and the Huntress in women's size 9 were both super small in the calf. I couldn't even wear them with pants tucked in or the welly socks I ordered. I returned those and ordered the men's size 8 and another pair of welly socks. The men's boots weren't much wider; it's a little snug with the welly socks and my pants tucked in. They'll probably be okay going back & forth to work in the slush; I don't have a far walk to the train. I loved the women's boots in Graphite and was really disappointed they didn't fit. Overall, they're really comfortable. I'm so glad Zappos has free shipping & returns! The customer service was outstanding; I just wish Hunter would make them a little wider.

I ordered these boots for my daughter. They came very fast and she is wearing them all the time! She is very happy with them. They fit well and look great.

Love these boots. The wider calf size was perfect and I can wear them with my jeans tucked in! I am normally a size eight with a bit of a wider foot. I ordered these in a 7 and they fit perfectly. They are really comfortable so they are great for walking in. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a good pair of Wellies!

I just got these boots in the mail, and they are awesome! I am a woman and ordered the men\'s size boot because I wear a size 12 women\'s. The boots are not clunky, but they have a roomy toe box, which is really good for my feet. I got them in red...and they are awesome. My boots don\'t have a white film or any thing on them, I\'ve noticed some peoples have. The red is not fire engine, which I\'m glad for. I\'d say the boots run about a half size big, which works out if you are going to put thick socks in them for winter/fall. I would also like to thank Zappos because I ordered these boots yesterday and they upgraded my shipping to Air last night just for the heck of it---and they are at my office less than 24 hours later!!

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.

I got my Hunter boots last night and I love these boots! I was a bit concerned about the shaft of the boot due to athletic calves, but they fit absolutely perfect! Very comfy and even with a thin sock, my feet were comfortably warm. I will probably get a pair of the Welly socks to go with these. Love Hunter and love Zappos! Will definitely order my Knightsbridge Uggs from Zappos.

These boots are awesome! I am a women and ordered the mens size because my calves are a little wider. The change in width ended up not being that much better from the women's size, but I am able to wear them comfortably. I ordered a size that didn't fit and Zappos exchanged them with a larger size (no shipping, and next day deliver for my new size!). I love Zappos, and these boots. They are so comfortable and great for rainy days. I get tons of compliments.

I have used Hunters for slopping around in the mud, catching oysters and cleaning barnyards for years. Can't be beat for overall comfort and durability. Was very glad to stumble across Zappos as a source for these and very impressed with the prompt service provided. Other companies should use Zappos as a training model for customer service. I don't think you will be disappointed with Hunter boots, but should you be dissatisfied for any reason, these folks take them back, right now and at their expense. Can't ask for better than that. I rate these boots with five stars overall, just bear in mind they are rubber boots, not dancing shoes or anything you would want to do serious running in. They are outstanding for the use intended.

I love this boots! After having a horrible experience with traditional store bought rain boots I decided to spend the extra money for these. I am 5'10 with a very athletic build so I order both the 15" women boots and these 17" men boots. They are exactly the same boot with the same circumference size. While the calf is indeed tight on me I can still wear them with leggings and thin skinny jeans and they are fine. The comfort and support of the actual boot is far worth the price and they hit right below my natural knee which looks good. Zappos was amazing with sending me a new pair to try on the fit and accepting the returned pair with no cost to me. If you are unsure about the fit of this boot on you or even about the color you want go ahead and order them from Zappos because your not going to find any other online retailer that makes shopping for shoes this painless.

These are good looking rain boots and have become a fashion item. They are designed well and hold up in the garden and in the woods.

The reviews were helpful to me regarding buying the socks. This is the reason for my writing this. I bought two medium socks in different designs. They were sized totally differently. The Size medium leopard sock fit perfectly under my boots. The green socks in medium were short on me. I wear a 8 1/2 - 9 shoe and bought size 9 in the green hunter boots. They are a little big with thin socks, but fit with the thick leopard socks.

I got these boots for the constant rain at school in upstate New York. I am normally a size 11, but I ordered a 10 and 11. I ended up keeping the 10 and returning the 11 (for free). The boots came the next day and I love them.

Lovely boots in navy and green! Make jumping into puddles fun at 23 plus. Cute with just about everything and subdued enough for NY tastes.

A really great boot. I have larger feet so I ordered from the mens selection but they are practically the same thing. I got the red ones and had a feeling that the color looked a little dull, but the when you look at it in a different light the color is more vibrant. Buy the matching socks! They\'re comfortable but they may make your feet sweat if it isn\'t that cold outside. Walking in the boots is fine with normal socks. But if you plan on walking long distances and need more foot support it maybe worth while to invest in insoles that you can switch in and out of the boots. Jeans fit well with them but if you own jeans with darker washes, be sure to wipe down the inside of the boots after wearing them for long periods of time because the coloring on your jeans may rub off in the boots. When you take them out of the box you may see an odd film or even afterwards but apparently thats the silicone layer of protection that the boot releases. There seem to be many differing opinions on the sizing of the boots (whether they are true to size or a half size down etc.), but if it doesn\'t fit send it back, because zappos will take care of it. I suggest that before buying the boots you go to the hunters website to decide which ones are best to because hunter suggests different ones for different uses and lifestyles. Hunter also has a great shoe sizing guide that will make buying off of zappos easier. I know this review was lengthy, but it addresses all of the questions and concerns you\'ll have once you put the boots on. enjoy!

I love these. I've had them since Jan 09. They are amazing in any sort of moist or violently wet weather. They have a look about them that turns heads. Everyone covets my hunters. In my mind, I love them because of all the years I will get out of them.

This is serious footwear. The construction is rock-solid. Sizing is accurate. Other reviewers have commented that the calf circumference is not generous and I agree. There is, however, room for pant legs of average thickness to fit inside.

I love these boots. With the rainy weather we are experiencing as of late in Chicago, the Hunter boots are a staple on many of us ladies. And let’s face it, rain boots don't necessarily come to mind when you think of being fashionable but these boots help you stay dry and some what hip. I'm a runner and my calves are a bit larger but these boots fit perfectly, even over jeans. I'm a size 8.5/9 and bought a 9 which fits perfectly. There isn't the support that I usually like in shoes but they are still relatively comfortable. I probably won't walk five miles in them but a mile or two is fine. I'm thinking of getting inserts to add a little cushioning.
