The most comfortable, easy to get on and off boot for muck work I have ever had, and it looks pretty good.

I love my "posh wellies!" They wash off easily. The foot bed is comfortable - I put an insert in for extra support. And my feet slip in and out of them with ease.

Love them! These are the most comfortable wellies I've tried. The rubber has "give" and doesn't push uncomfortably on the top of my foot like so many others. I'm short (5'3") and the tall boots often push on the backs of my knees. These are the perfect height. It's also a good height for tucking pants in. I also like the classic British look. Bring on the rain and mud!

Classic color, classic style. European sizing so half sizes should probably size up. I love 'em.

These are overall cute and functional boots! I find them to fit the best when worn with a thick pair of socks. It does tend to get that white glaze but there is supposed to be a buffer and instant shine product from Hunter that you apply to help with this. I received lots of compliments and even my seven year-old commented on them being fashionable. Great, fast service from Zappos!

Very cute boot and I love the height. As a petite gal, the higher boots don't always work for me. These are comfortable but I gave 4 stars because they run really pretty big and the inside is a bit sparse (not a lot of cushion) - size down and wear soft, thick socks and you should be good to go!

I am so sad that these boots didn't work out. I am normally an 11 but the largest size available was a 10. The boot fit perfectly except it was too tight around my calf, ah well, what can you do? I will say that Zappos got them to my house literally overnight, their service is amazing. The boots will be returned, but I will most definitely shop Zappos again!

Awesome Boot! True to size! Super comfortable! Also got the fleece socks, which makes it a very warm boot! May get a new one in a new color! The hight is the perfect for everyday wear.

I was reprimanded by my friends for buying such an expense pair of rain boots, but I was not going to buy another cheap pair of boots just to have them rip again. I wear a size 10 in shoes, but with these boots I had to get a 9. I actually went to a store and tried them on, because I didn't know how they would fit, because of the other reviews. But I ordered them off Zappos, because they had the color I wanted. Definitely would recommend these. Worth the price. Great fit and does the job well.

I have always wanted these boots but my calves are too big so the high boots were no good for me. These are perfect. I love them in the Navy. They are comfortable and look very nice, not bulky. I bought them a size smaller based on another review. I'm glad I did.

These boots are great especially paired with the fleece wellies for winter. I am currently in New Zealand where the weather is very wet and these have worked very well. Zappos shipping got them to me in three business days, great!

Love them! They are a little large, and really difficult to get off bare feet, but with a sock, they will be perfect!

Love the boots. I had previously tried these boots on in a store and knew to order down 1/2 size. They were perfect and Zappos made it easy for me. No shipping charges and delivered to my front door.

Very stylish and comfortable rain boot. Fit true to size. I had ordered the tall boot first and had to return it because it fit too tight around the top, and I don't have thick legs. The short boot is perfect and is much easier to get on and off.

The best boots ever! I have been in the NY/NJ area for three years, and have tried all kinds of boots for snow and rain. These boots are the ones! They are perfect for navigating the snowy pathways of New Jersey and the slushy streets of Manhattan with complete comfort. This January was the snowiest on record, and these boots kept my feet warm and dry, not to mention stopped me from slipping on slick walkways. I'm a size 7.5 (US) and these boots fit perfectly with no slipping in the heel (mine are a little narrow). The boots are so comfortable and look stylish too - yes rubber boots can look good. Recommendation - buy a thick pair of wool-blend socks to wear with the boots to keep your feet warm and you'll be fine. I am thrilled to have a pair of boots that will suffice for snow and rain! Love these and love Zappos - their service is unsurpassed.

This boot is true to size. I wear a size 9 shoe, and the 9 boot fits perfectly. I would not recommend buying a size down, as I read on previous reviews. So far, they feel comfortable on my way to work this morning. I bought these shoes for my trip to Ireland in April. There will be plenty of rainy days in Ireland, so I'm prepared! I have trouble finding a boot that fits my calves, and the Hunter short boot fits perfectly. Just enough room to tuck my jeans inside. Overall, a good investment for rainy, slushy weather. They look cute, too!

I only wanted to use this boot in a horse barn, ie, mucking stalls, cleaning paddocks, etc. It's not insulated so I put a Dr. Scholl's inner sole in it which helped; very easy to clean - just hose it off. It will make a great rain boot and would recommend it more for that.

There is an extended review of this boot by another customer that began "Ladies, this is it." I couldn't agree more. A cute, functional boot; when paired with the Hunter socks = perfect. The boot does run a full size larger than my regular size; I tried on at a store first as I was considering the purchase and would recommend this approach. It still fits great with the sock even down 1 size; can actually put on a thin pair of socks underneath for extra warmth. Of course now it won't snow but I did have a chance to give them a spin - good traction. I bought the green boots with the gold socks - have a little fun with your new "galoshes."

I love it! Very comfy, fits perfectly. No fat ankle like with the Huntress style which I returned. I also bought the short welly sock to go with it and it keeps my feet nice, warm and dry in the cold weather. For women with muscular 16" calves like mine, this is a much better option than the Huntress because it hits below the widest part of your calf and they are easy to walk in. I have no problem tucking my pants into my boots (even with the welly sock). Highly recommend it. I got them in Navy, but I'm tempted to buy them in the deep purple color.

I ordered these boots yesterday, and just got them in the mail! Put them on immediately, and they fit great! true to size, but still a little room so you can wear nice thick socks to keep your feet that much more warm! these boots are so comfortable, they're very flexible and not heavy on the feet. I'm definitely satisfied with my purchase!

The color is what I expected as shown in the picture (dark purple). The boots are nice and comfortable, definitely waterproof. I usually wear a size 7 and I ordered a 7 but it felt like a size 8 so I had to return it.

These are beautiful boots! I bought multiple pairs of boots to try out and was hesitant to buy these because they were significantly more expensive. After trying on all the other pairs, the difference in quality was very apparent, and worth the extra money.

I already have a pair of tall Hunter boots, but really wanted these - for the color, and for spring.
While I enjoy my tall boots, these are a better option for rainy days when it isn't necessarily cold. They fit the same way the tall boots do - running large.
I wear a 9½ and got a 9 in these, since I plan to wear socks. I still have space to spare.

I have wide feet, high arches and thick calves and this boot was perfect. It doesn't pinch, it's not too tight, has more arch support than 99% of rain boots, and has plenty of wiggle room for your toes even in thick socks. I'm typically a size 6.5 women's US and got a 6. There's at least half an inch of space in front of my big toe. I suggest getting a size down. Overall, these boots are well worth the money.
