I had to purchase the kid's size Hunter boot but the Hunter socks were only offered in 1 size in kids and it was basically toddler size. My only option was to get the adult socks but only Medium and Larger are available. The Medium states shoe size 5-7 but it definitely errs on the larger size. I usually wear a 5 in women's and the socks are comically large. I have to fold the toe under once on my foot before putting the boot on so that the sock doesn't go up to my thigh. Better too big than too small, but would like an adult small option. Or a large kids option. I'm seriously planning on cutting off a couple inches on the sock and sewing it back together so it fits more appropriately and comfortably. The socks also seem to hold on to any sweat or condensation. They can take a while to dry out. Not terrible, but noticeable.

The socks are very warm without being bulky, and are an attractive shade of navy blue. They are a bit too roomy on my women's size 8.5 narrow-width foot. I am petite (5 ft 3 in.), and the socks are somewhat too long, so I have a good-sized cuff to roll over the boot top. Beyond those caveats I am pleased with these socks. The quality is good, and I think they will wear well.

Comfy, cozy and definitely worth having through the winter months. The socks are really more like boot liners instead of socks, they are not fitted to the foot. Plus, they're really fun and cute! :)

Bought my first pair of Hunter boots, and took my sister's advice to get the socks. I had a really hard time justifying the price for a pair of "socks," but it was well worth it! The socks are really a fleece lining. They make the boots more comfortable and will be great for cold days. I bought boots a half size up from what I normally wear, and with the socks, they fit perfectly.

I bought these welly socks to wear with my Kamik Jennifer boots after my feet were getting cold. I have the Kamik boots in a size 9 and bought the large welly socks and it's a really good fit. The only complaint I have is that the Charcoal color is not a dark grey. It's more like a light grey with browner hues. Almost a beige, really. I still liked the color so I kept them, but I was really surprised when I got them because it looked so much darker in the image on Zappos.

Love the look of these socks with Hunter Wellies. However, if you have larger calves, beware! My boots just didn't fit right once I put these on. Thankfully we never get too cold here -- I had actually bought them to bring on a trip to Montana. I am keeping the socks just in case I really need them (or in case my calves shrink).

I just recently bought a fabulous pair of Wellies, and I can't possibly imagine wearing them without these socks. Really, they make a world of difference in terms of added warmth, comfort and style. Some things to keep in mind with these socks, however: I own the Huntress boots, which are wider in the calf but shorter by an inch or so than the originals. These socks are really designed for the original Welly. Although it doesn't make too much of a difference, some people may not like how long the socks are in comparison to the boot if they decide to purchase the Huntress, as they can't really be tucked in or wrapped over the Huntress too well. Also, I know zappos.com says a Large is for a size 7-9, and while I wear a shoe size 8, I find the Large rather big. I would prefer something with a more snug fit. Next socks I buy will be the smaller size. Other than those two small issues, these socks are great, and a vital addition for any winter Welly wear.

These seem to run a bit big. I had to return the pair sized for her and get the medium. My daughter loves the way they look. Have to wait for winter to use them.

You'd be amazed at how warm your feet stay with these liners. Warning: if the boots are a little snug around your calves, these will make them more snug and will probably prevent you from getting your jeans tucked in. But they're a must have for the winter. I ordered them because everyone was sold out and they actually look a little pink.

I love my Hunter boots. I bought them in England while studying there. The wellie socks help keep you warm, but be warned that they make the boot much tighter. On my skinny legs, this is completely fine. If you're someone whose boots are too tight, then don't bother. They do help, but wearing doubled socks works just as well. If you like them, then go for it. I can't complain about it that's for sure.

Huge Baggy Sock -
If you wear a women's size 10, do NOT order the Large Hunter welly sock, because it is huge. When I slipped the sock on my foot, I could not even tell there was a foot under there because the sock was so very baggy. I'm returning them and ordering a Medium.

Cozy socks -
These socks are cozy and fit perfectly with Hunter boots. When used for the snow with Hunter boots, they will keep your toes warm, but not as warm as Uggs.

I work in retail and need shoes that allow for long hours of walking and standing while still looking fashionable. These soft sole on these boots is really comfortable! The high heel and really buttery leather give a little edge to an otherwise ordinary style. I love them and expect to wear them several times a week.

Great, but big!
Order a size down unless you intend to wear them over very thick socks!

These socks fit perfectly in the boots and look great, they just are not quite warm enough for Chicago winters. Great for a cold rainy day, but I wish I would have bought real snow boots!

Hunter Wellies Socks -
The sizes run really weird. I first received a Large because that was what the size guide told me to get because I'm an 8/8.5 they were HUGE when I got them and looked ridiculous. So I ordered another pair in a Medium... and those are still a little too small. I need them so I don't plan on returning them, but they are super soft.

These ran really big more like a Christmas stocking to hang on the fireplace. I wear another pair of socks inside these! Also too short for the tall Hunters.

I bought the large socks to go with my size 8 boots, and sadly I have to return. Too bulky in the foot and didn't feel very comfortable. It did make the calf feel much tighter and my skinny jeans wanted to pull up and gather around my knees. I'm going to try the shearling inserts with regular socks and see how they feel.

These socks are super comfy and fit in my high purple Hunter boots perfectly and definitely keep my feet cozy. However, I was disappointed in the color. They are not bright rubber duckie yellow. They're more of a dark mustard yellow that reminds me of an old baby's blanket. Really not as cute and bright as they appear.

These socks are "okay." I found them to be quite large and bunchy in the heel. I have to actually fold over the toe area a bit and then put my foot in the boot and usually takes a couple tries before it fits comfortably. I have only worn them a couple times on very chilly rainy days to keep my feet warm in my Hunters. I was originally going to return but they serve a purpose, though I feel they are very overpriced and I would not purchase again. Also, they pick up lint like crazy (black) so if you are thinking of buying a pair and have pets, consider a color to match their fur.

These socks are humongous. I wear a women's size 7 shoe. I got the smallest Wellies they make, but they are 1 1/2 inches too big all around! There's no way I can squeeze my foot into my very spacious Hunter boots wearing these bulky and humongous socks.

Really wanted to love these. The fleece feels so soft a cozy. But the large I ordered (I wear an 8), is just too loose on my feet so it bunches as I walk and the seams kind of slide around uncomfortably. I have a somewhat narrow and low-volume foot, so it's a problem being at the lower end of the size range. Wish these came in more sizes since they aren't a fitted, stretchy sock. I'm going to give them another shot by ordering the medium. My shoes are a UK 6/ USA women's 8, but I think I might like the socks to be a little more foot-fitting. We'll see. Also, I ordered the charcoal. I received a package called "medium gray," but it is, in reality, a light to medium taupe, not really gray at all, and certainly not the charcoal pictured. But it looked nice with my aubergine boots, so if they had fit, I would have kept them.

For the price, I expected a lot more than what I got. My biggest gripe about these socks is the seam that goes right down the middle! If I'm wearing a sock for long periods of time, I don't want bunching to occur and I certainly don't want to feel an uncomfortable seam. I'm a size 8 in the Original Tall boot and I probably could have ordered the women's medium (5-7) because the large was a bit too big on me. I like my socks to fit snug and these were just about falling off. Plus, I have ski socks that I've paid less for that are thicker and will suffice when the time comes for me to add a layer of warmth to my wellies. I probably would've kept these socks for the style factor if that darn seam didn't go right down the middle of my foot! I've been told in the past by podiatrists and other doctors (I have Reynaud's) that the slightest crinkle in a sock can cut off circulation in my foot and exacerbate the problem further. These socks would certainly be causing numbness in my feet and I can't have that in the winter.

According to my daughters, the socks do keep your feet warm. But they make it much more difficult to get the boots on and off. They socks also make the boots tighter - so account for that when you choose your boot size!

I am a size 8.5, the medium can fit but it is a little tight. These socks paired with skinny jeans are too thick for the boots, I have to stick to leggings when I wear these socks.
