Couple disappointments with these that were really my fault for not scrutinizing harder. 1) They're boots, so small sizes are hard to get on and off. Should have ordered a larger size. They are super tight and rubbery and it's a huge task to take them off. 2) The zipper starts about an inch above the heel, so you can't step in really deep water. 3) Just not that cute in person. :(

I really like these boots. No problem with the calf or zipper (although I did rub the teeth with wax). The only thing that I don't like is that the heel doesn't feel solid enough. It's like you can feel a grid beneath your heel and because of this, they're not comfortable enough for lengthy walking. I will try and "fix" it by putting an insole but I haven't done this yet. If not for the heel, they'd be great.

Love this boots. They're really fun to wear and easy to throw on when it's raining out. I got 3 compliments the first time I wore them, and they wanted to know where I had gotten them so that they could buy them as well! Have only worn them a couple of times so far. They seem very comfortable except for a little stiffness on the front lower part that hits the leg, which may need to be worn in a little. Feel a lot lighter than Hunter's, and I think they are more comfortable. Overall, a great buy!

I first saw these babies on a girl walking down the street and couldn't forget the pink zipper down the back for a week! I finally tracked them down on Zappos and was thrilled to see they were Steve Madden - crossed fingers for quality! They look so good, like a real riding boot until you get close and see they're rain boot - I get zillions of compliments from girls and guys alike! Badass and sexy! FYI, they are snug! Definitely not for wide feet or thick socks, and are at least a half size too small for sure. They are also really tough to pull off, feels a bit like my knee almost dislocates when the suction kicks in, but honestly I just took out the liner in the boot. I wear these in the mud and to work in my office. Currently wearing a gray dress with black leggings and Fox knee high riding socks with the pink Fox head peeking out at the top of the boots - love the look!

Loved the look of this boot and purchased a pair about two years ago. The boot was moss green and had an orange zipper. To my disappointment, the boot itself cracked open on the inseam on both feet. I think the rubber is prone to drying out and then cracking. I have narrow feet, so there was no undue pressure put on the boot. I still wear them, as I love them, but I can't wear them in the rain because the rain seeps in through the cracks, which at this point has gotten pretty long and gapping. Probably time to toss them or return them to the Steve Madden people in hopes that they can rectify a pretty "deal breaker" issue. Expensive rain boots shouldn't split open after less than a year.

I love these boots! I bought them a 1/2 size larger than needed so that I can wear thick socks if need be. The leg of the boot has plenty of space for thick jeans. Every time I wear them I get complements!

I love these boots! I wear a size 7.5 in shoes but ordered a size 8 and they fit perfect with socks. These are so comfortable. A little edgy thanks to the pink zipper stripe. I have larger calves and these boots provide plenty room to tuck in jeans. I am going to wear them with skinny jeans whether it rains or not. They really don't look like rain boots but they do have a faint rubbery smell. I think they are expensive but fingers crossed they last awhile. Hey Zappos thank you for the awesome customer service!

I am so happy, I bought these boots in my regular size (8) instead of a size larger like what most people in the review stated and they fit perfectly! However, I would recommend a size larger if you don't have narrow feet.

Super cute boots but they definitely run half to full size small. If you are planning to wear thick socks at any point with these, I would highly recommend going a full size up. I'm between 8.5 - 9 so got the 9. I'm returning and getting a 10 in hopes there will be more room to accommodate warm socks.

When I moved up to Boston this fall, I wanted to invest a solid, stylish pair of rain boots that would last me through graduate school! I tend to go for cute over practicality sometimes, but I am glad to say that this pair of boots hits both. The side buckles give the effect of riding boots, and the red-stripe along the back zipper make for a sleek look. I opted for the hunter green color because it pairs well with a variety of colors. They fit nicely over a pair of jeggings/skinny jeans, and I like that they have a little bit of heel too. The only suggestion I have would be that since the zipper does not come all the way down to the bottom - taking them off sometimes can be a little bit trickier, and you have to pull a little bit! But overall I am really happy with these boots, and they have definitely kept me waterproof this rainy fall!

I have been searching endlessly for cute rain boots that actually fit my calves. These rain boots have such a nice space at the top that is adjustable for someone with calves like myself. I also have a wider foot and these fit perfectly. They aren't stiff and as narrow as most rain boots. They are also so stylish and could even be pulled off as casual riding boots. I can't wait until it rains so I can enjoy them.

So cute! I love them and they are soft rubber but are still great for the heavy rain. They fit true to size except they are a little narrow near the toe. They will take a little bit to break in.

I love these rainboots. It rains a lot where I am so I wanted a good investment. I tried Hunters and Sperry but these fit the best! The rubber is soft yet sturdy. I ordered a half size bigger and they fit perfect. I have a larger calf and they fit nicely with room to expand the sides. Very cute style too; I wear them rain or shine!

I love these boots, they were more than what I could have wished for. The calf isn't really wide and fits perfect around my leg (I have smaller legs) but it can be made wider with the buckle on the side. Also the red zipper on the back adds the perfect amount of fun to this boot. The fit is very comfortable and I can't wait to wear these.

These are absolutely the cutest boots ever with plenty of room to tuck your jeans in (even if you have a wider calf like me). They are mostly waterproof although I've found that under extreme conditions they can be a little leaky. I would suggest ordering them one size bigger as they are a little hard to get in and out of if the shoe is too small.

I bought these boots for my 17 year old and she loves them! She wore them to school and within a week she saw 5 other girls wearing them. She liked the fitted nature of the boot as opposed to the typical loose, sloppy fit of traditional rain boots. Overall a huge score for Mom.

These boots are great! They look really nice for rain boots and they are also comfortable! I wish it rained everyday so I can wear them all the time! Unfortunately we don't get that much rain in California even though you can get away by wearing them any day since they are so sophisticated!

I brought this shoe in two colors. I must say I'm very satisfied with this shoe. It is very stylish. I get some many compliments on the colors and style. This boot is hot. The one issue I did have was the zippers on the boot as others had posted in reviews of the boot before I purchased it. I found the trick to help with the zipper. Place baby oil on Q-tip and oil the zipper tracks. Oil the whole track. This worked perfectly! I have no problems with the zipper at all. Great shoe for rain and slush.

Love, love these boots! I get compliments every time I wear them. I live in PA, so these are my go-to boots in the snow and slush. The zipper does stick at times but easy to get your foot in and out.

I absolutely love these rainboots! Like previous reviewers, I also have a muscular calf (about 16" diameter), and have spent years looking for boots that would fit and also be stylish. These boots are absolutely perfect. They are adorable and my friends couldn't even tell they were rain boots when I wore them with leggings! Also, I recently wore them in blizzard conditions, and my feet stayed dry. The buckle at the top allows you to tighten or loosen based on your calf size, but I think they might be too big for smaller calves. I have a wide foot and got a size 8 (I'm usually a 7.5), and these fit perfectly. So happy to finally find the perfect rain boot!

I love these boots! So amazing looking but I have big calves and measured and the boots were the same as my calves. They were still a little tight but I could zip them, but the zipper broke! I will be sending back even though I really love them since the zipper is now open and stuck at the top. The zippers on these are a problem and are sticky but if you have smaller calves I would think you would have no issues. Also they run small and are tight across the ball of the foot but not too tight across the top of the foot, which usually happens for me.

I was in the market for a tall rain boot that would fit comfortably around my calf muscles. I purchased a pair of Steve Madden Tsunamii boots and a pair of Hunter Original boots. This is a comparison of the two the boots. I wear a womens size 8 US, but listened to other reviews for both pair of boots and selected size 9 instead of 8. Both boots fit well in the toe and little wiggly in the heel. Not an issue for me. The Tsunamii boots are a bit more stylish than the Hunter, but I liked the simplicity and durability that the Hunter boots offered. What sealed the deal was the fit around my calf. I have some pretty stealth-like calf muscles. I measured the diameter around the widest part of my calves, which are roughly 16 1/2 inches give or take a mm or 2. The Hunter boots were vacuum-sealed tight! I could have worn them, but it would have felt like I had my leg stuck in a vacuum hose. The seal around my calf created a buildup in air pressure that caused the boot to expand and buckle in strange and uncomfortable places, not to mention the image in my head of being in public and having that oh-so-tight seal around my calf function like a whoopee cushion. While the Tsunamii boots are snug to my calf, they do not stop the air or blood flow to the rest of my leg. This is largely in the design. The Tsunamii boot has an expandable fold and strap at the top of the boot that can be adjusted for a perfect fit. The Hunter boot has a strap but no extra fold for expansion. I was pretty surprised given that it's a unisex boot. I also bought a pair of the Hunter fleece welly socks. They were warm and snuggly! I was a bit disappointed about having to return them, so I decided to try them with the Tsunamii boots. Perfecto! The only thing about the Tsunamii boots that is a little concerning is the zipper. It's a bit tough, but I think with use they will loosen up just fine. I m in love my new Tsunami boots! I felt like Debbie Reynolds in Singing in the Rain! "What a glorious feeling, I m happy again!"

I'm so happy with this boot. It is a little wide at the top; the buckles are only decoration. But they are very comfy and look good.

Love these boots! Amazingly style and comfort for rubber rain boots. The red zipper detail makes me reach for them even when it isn't raining! I had trouble fitting into Hunters (I have pretty muscular calves) and saw these before I discovered that Hunter has an extended calf style (Huntress). I am so glad that I did as this Steve Madden boot fits over perfectly! But that means if you are a skinnier girl with skinner legs- these boots might swim on you- like they did on my petite sister.

These boots look great, like motorcycle boots, not rain boots. However, the zipper in the back hardly works. I just received these, but I am not sure I am going to keep them. I can barely get the zipper to go up and down when I'm not wearing them, I can't imagine if they get stuck while they're on. They are also tight across the ball of the foot.
