Customer Reviews Kamik Olivia

was super excited to get these after reading all of the positive reviews, however when I put them on after getting them they were nothing like the reviews said. I'm a size 7 and orders a size 7. They were really difficult to get on, and then once they were finally on they were so tight and uncomfortable on my foot that I started losing circulation and had to take them off. Also, every other review said that these fit really tightly to the calf, but mine had a rather large unattractive gap in the front when I was wearing them. Very disappointed considering how excited I was. They were so uncomfortable I don't think I have any choice but to return them. Don't know if I will try ordering a size up or not.

Love the look of these boots but they are so heavy. I've had other rain boots that do an equally good job at protecting against the rain but aren't nearly as heavy. I tend to avoid wearing these just because they are hard to walk in.

The boots are very well made. I was hoping that even though it said 15" circumference, that maybe it went up with a larger sized foot. I unfortunately wear a size 9 with 16-17" calf. So they didn't fit. But the boots are incredibly cute. I'm sad to return them.

I understand one foot is slightly bigger than the other, but this was a significant size difference. Both were snug even with very thin socks on. This is the type of product I think I need to try on in person. They are a nice color and what I was looking for, just not fitting me.

I wear a 9.5, but there were no half sizes, so I went 10. They were the tiniest bit snug, but the real problem was the inflexibility of the boot of the ankle. I had to stomp around the house like King Kong. Maybe they would have broken in over time, but it really didn't feel like they would! They were very cute, but I returned them.

These are cute but run very small. I am normally a 9 and ordered a 9 could not get my foot in. Will get bigger size.

Had to return these. Could barely get my feet in them. Definitely couldn't fit my pant legs inside the boots. They did look nice and seemed well made though!

So comfortable, but too small in the foot and too narrow around the calf. I usually wear a 7.5 and an 8 for boots. Calves are athletic but not more than 15" circumference. The 9 would have been too big. Such a bummer, exactly what I was looking for, they need to increase their size measurements.

The boots looked great and are well made. But too tight on the calf, and I do not have large calves. Want a rainboot that I can slip in and out of easily, and sadly cannot with these.

I am normally a 7.5 and I ordered an 8. It was snug on my foot in a good way. Didn't feel like it was sliding all around. But the top of the boot was tight on my calf. I am athletic so some boots can be tight. I was disappointed as these were a good price for waterproof boots.

I was really excited to get these boots and ordered a 7 based on reviews as I am usually a 6 or 6.5. But when I received them I couldn't even get my foot into them. I have never had this problem with any pair and have never worn anything over a size 7. I guess I will have to return them and get a size 8.

Okay basic rain boots. Run small though. I normally wear a 7 and needed an 8 in these.

These fit okay but are quite stiff and difficult to get on and off. I decided to keep them as I needed a pair of rain boots and am hoping they will wear down over time. I also have never owned rain boots so thought this may be par for the course.

I typically wear a 9 but will need to size up to 11 for these to fit. They were very comfortable in the footbed and supportive. I am thin and these were very slim on my calves. Unfortunately they will need to go back. I LOVE that they are made in Canada! Just make the calves a touch wider!

Was looking for a rainboot. This is a cute design, but didn't realize how tight they would fit around the calf (forget wearing them over pants!). They will definitely keep my feet dry, but too bad they aren't looser around the calf like other rainboots I've seen.

Bought these for my daughter, but they were so narrow in the calf she couldn't wear them with jeans. I also tried them on and found them too narrow in the arch. Nice style otherwise, but have to return.

I liked these even though they were a little tight across the arch at first, as people have noted. They seem to loosen with time. I bought them because I thought a known brand like Kamik would wear better than the Target boots I was replacing. But both pairs lasted only two years! I wear them once a day for 10-15 minutes to walk the dog out back in the woods - and that's all. Now the Kamiks have split across the back of the heel after approx. 2 years, letting water in. So I'm not sure it was worth the extra money for these after all. On to the next pair...

These are so cute but they are going back. I am a true size 7 so that is what I ordered. They JUST fit barefoot but there is no way I could wear a sock with these. I am a small person with a bony foot and small to average calves and these were snug. I tried on with a jean jegging and I would not be able to fit anything thicker. I also felt like I was walking strange because they were somewhat stiff. I am bummed.

Be warned. There is an extremely narrow arch. It is so narrow that I couldn't get my foot in the boot. I don't think going a size up will even fix the problem, it was that snug. Also, they look like they are somewhat cheaply made. There are rubber strings hanging off where rubber oozed out of the mold.

It was so baggy around the ankle, and my foot felt like it could easily slide out. I'm new to rain boots; is that how they are supposed to fit? I will look for something more snug around the heel and ankle.

I purchased the Kamik Olivia, Heidi and Ellie hoping at least one of these pairs would work. I normally wear a 5-5.5 in sandals and a 6 in boots. The 6 fit true to size in all three pairs wearing a relatively thin pair of socks. I liked the narrow heel because my foot didn't slip out when walking. But...and this is a big but...the shaft was so narrow that I could not wear any of them with a pair of skinny jeans tucked in - leggings, maybe, but definitely not jeans. For reference, I am only 5'0" and am not athletic by any means, so my calves are not very muscular. The widest part of each calf measures 35 cm or approx 13.75 inches. Yet all three pairs were still too snug and therefore not versatile enough to allow for wearing different types of jeans/pants tucked in. Too bad. I hate having to return three pairs of boots!

The top cuff of these boots is very, very narrow. Either the measurment listed was NOT taken from the top cuff OR it's incorrect altogether. I barely got my leg into this boot, wearing only pantyhose. I normally wear a size 5.5 and I have a very high instep. The ball of the foot of this boot is very wide and the arch is very narrow. They almost look like an exaggerated footprint. The instep is also very short, as it was putting pressure on the bone on the top of my foot and made it painful to walk in them. I took two steps off my couch and I was done. They're very hard to pull on and off. They are also very thick and stiff, however the color is nice (I'd ordered the grey) and they seem well made. Unfortunately, I had to send them back.

I bought these hoping to find a less expensive alternative to Hunter boots. I will have to keep searching because this pair was very tight and difficult to get on/off. I am normally a size 9 and the sizing for the foot was okay, but the shaft and ankle were too tight. They were also difficult to walk in.

Cute boot, but extremely narrow calves. If your calves are even slightly muscular, stay away!

Overall, I'm glad I purchased these boots. They are comfortable and so much more stylish than the ubiquitous Hunter boots (and far less expensive!). They can pass as dressier boots but look plenty cute with jeans or leggings. The only thing I don't like about them is the silly side buckle. It's purely decorative and the strap constantly comes detached from the buckle. The buckle also tends to catch on things and is starting to bend. (There is a piece of metal that attaches the buckle to the boot.) I'm quite sure it's just a matter of time before the buckle comes completely off. I have a friend with a pair of these books and noticed the buckle and strap has completely detached from one of her boots and the just the buckle on the other, leaving the strap to flap around without any place to go. Don't get me wrong....I like the look of the buckle...but it's not worth if it's going to fall off so easily, because it it's a much less attractive boot when it does.
