Customer Reviews Kamik Olivia

These boots look nice but will not fit unless you are very skinny or have a narrow calf. I have an average sized calf, wear size 8 shoes and though I went up a size higher and ordered a 9, they fit very snugly and only over bare legs. I had to return. If I go up 2 sizes to a 10 to fit my calf properly, its possible the feet will be too loose.

runs too small. Ordered half a size bigger just in case but couldn't even get them on. Waiting for an exchange.

I am very slender and I've never had an issue with a boot being too tight on my calf. Usually it's the opposite. But within a minute or two of putting these on I just couldn't stand it anymore. It was so tight on my calves that it was hurting! The shape of them is so strange. Sending them back.

I ordered the black ones in a 9 and 10, I'm usually a 9.5. The 9's were too tight and the 10 was too big. They were also very tight on the ankle and calf are and I consider myself to have pretty small calves since most other boots I have had no problems with on my calves. I really don't know if I could even fit my skinny jeans into them. They are really cute, but very uncomfortable.

First of all, these were adorable. Like some others, I found that they ran way too small. I ordered up a half size, which is what I normally do when I anticipate wearing socks underneath. These were easily a size too small and I wasn't even able to get my foot all the way in.

I ordered a pair for my roommate and myself (she wears a 7, I wear a 10 1/2), and both were waaaay too small -- and I ordered an 11. Sadly, I had no choice but to return both. And they were so small, I couldn't even guess on what would be the right size. They may be great boots, but I'll never know.

These boots smell like they are made of vinyl. We have a ban on vinyl in our house because it is a toxic endocrine disruptor, dangerous to the manufacturers and the environment in production and harmful to consumers in use. My daughters' Kamik rain boots are made of rubber and have been wonderful. I hoped mine would be the same, but no. Also, the calf is smaller than listed in the measurements. It is so tight I couldn't get jeans into it. Thanks Zappos for being so easy to deal with. As for foot size, I have wide 7.5 feet and ordered 8. they are snug and would probably be too tight with socks. Arch support seemed pretty decent for a rain boot. I have high arches.

So narrow I literally could not even put them on. I am relatively petite with small/narrow feet and small calves. They are super cute, sad to have to return them!

I have high arches and almost-wide-with feet, so I ordered a size up. I couldn't even get my foot into the boot, the rubber doesn't stretch or forgive at all. They're such a great, basic boot though, I'm sad to have to return them!

The boot was very difficult to put on and really hard to get off. I went a 1/2 boot size. Great boot just not a good fit for me.

These are going back - I have "normal" size legs (whatever that means) and this is oddly tight at the ankle and the calf. Forget about wearing these with a liner or socks. Also felt a half size smaller, something I've never run into with a rainboot.

Very uncomfortable. They fit well in the front but my ankle kept popping up with each step and rubbed against the back of the boot.

These were way way way too small. I couldn't even get my foot into them! Very disappointed.

I normally wear a 9 1/2 to a 10. I ordered a 10 and the arches were so high up that I could not even get my foot into them.

I ordered the Kamik Olivia boot in this color - Berry and a Charcoal/red sole combination I no longer see. I tried on the berry color boot first and it was very uncomfortable. It was extremely stiff and unyielding as I tried to put my foot down. It did not bend or give when I took steps. I had trouble pulling it off. The charcoal color felt like an entirely different material though they were both the same style and size. I slipped on - soon felt molded to my foot and leg and was easy to walk in. The Berry colored boots went back and I kept the charcoal pair. I mentioned it to customer service and the very nice person had no idea why they "felt" so different. Love the Kamik brand and love these boots...in Charcoal. I wear an 8 to 8.5 - and ordered up to a 9 in these. Worn with med weight boot socks, leggings and will have room to wrap my jeans inside my socks and wear tucked in. Don't avoid these boots! But maybe try a different color. Kept me warm all day in slushy snow and felt supportive on my foot.

I needed to replace my rubber boots, which I wear through three seasons and I use as my winter boots. I chose these because they looked simple and versatile, and the reviews were good. However, I couldn't get my foot in the boot whatsoever! I am a true to size 10 with average width (if anything, more on the narrow side) and was so surprised when I couldn't get my foot past the neck of the boot. They look and feel extremely well made, which is all the more reason I am so disappointed I can't keep them.

Not waterproof! The first time I wore these, they leaked and my toes were wet and cold. I tried once more and again had wet socks. Throwing them away now after 2 uses because I need boots to could wear in snow and rain and stay dry. Total waste of money.

Really disappointed in these boots. They are not as nice as other reviewers made them out to be. If I didn't need them for something, I would send them back and not buy Kamik again. They are slim through the calf as noted, but they are giant in the heel and ankle. Making them unattractive, shapeless, difficult to get on and off, and likely to cause blisters since your heel will be all over the place. They don;t seem that well made, either. I doubt they last more than 6 months.

Cons: They are too tight in my calf and looser in the foot part. Due to the tightness of the calf, I have to really struggle to get them off, which is a pain in the butt! It takes about a minute to rip them off. Also since the they are loose at the feet, I get blisters from my pants and socks not staying in place (I even put the socks over my pants). They feel fine the first couple of minutes after wearing them, but not after a full day of walking to classes! After about an hour they feel so uncomfortable it is unbearable! Also, I got them in red and then realized how hard they are to match with my clothes! Lastly, they make walking down the stairs very hard because they do not bend well in the ankle part. I do wish I could have known how uncomfortable they were before I wore them for a whole day so I could have returned them. Pros: Due to the tightness (I presume), they make your legs look great! I love that they show the shape of my leg unlike other bulky rain boots. Additionally, they are warm and they definitely keep my foot dry! Do not rub the black bottom of the boot on any red part of the boot! I did that to try and relieve an itch and it did not relieve the itch because they are so thick and it made permanent black marks on the boot.

I can't really tell you how these fit, because I wear a 7.5, ordered an 8 and still couldn't get my foot through the space for your ankle. Wouldn't go on at all. Returned.

Terrible. I couldn't even get my foot in it, I have to return them. I literally tried every possible way to get my foot in. I don't understand, I'm not overweight, I'm petite, I don't have massive feet. They look cute, but I have no idea how it's possible that women get their feet in there! It's ergonomically impossible! I had read about the narrowness complaints, but thought, nah, I'm pretty slim, it'll be fine. Please, don't buy these.

This boots were awful. I tried then in a size 8 and a size 9, and the calf was extremely tight on both. I don't have very big legs, so I'm assuming this was a problem for a lot of people. I had to have someone else pull the boots off of me because they practically glued themselves to my legs. I sent them right back!
