These boots are fantastic in every way! They are a perfect fit (my size is 7),warm and comfortable They kind of look like nu-buck. You can wear them under pants and they look like a fashion boot not a pair of construction worker boots. It's been 2 degrees the last couple of days and they are very warm. There is room to tuck in your pants/jeans if you wish. I have 4 other pairs of winter/ water repellant boots. I threw one out and put the other 3 away. This will be the only pair of boots I'll need for winter (I live in the New England). If they don't have the color you want, choose another color. If you don't like them Zappos makes returns easy and free. I've never seen a waterproof book that looks so fashionable.

Love these boots; great for snow and rain. Bought them for my daughter and she loves them as well. Beware that these run small. My daughter normally wears a 7-7 1/2 but we got an 8. They fit perfectly for her. However, I am a true 8 and was not able to fit them

These boots were exactly what I was looking for in that they could be worn with a casual dress or pants. They felt like slippers BUT there is a problem. We have lots of ice and snow in Vermont, and there was almost no tread. Had to send them back.

B Width doesn't quite cut it. They almost fit, but the shoe box hugs the feet too tightly and I wouldn't be able to wear socks. The shaft appeared to be large enough. Nope. I couldn't hope to get the zipper to zip up. They seem like they would almost be comfortable, though. This just isn't the right size and shape. I think the material it's made of would attract lint and pet hair, too.

I ordered a size 9 and I'm a size 8, which seems to be just the right amount of difference to accommodate a thick pair of wool socks. I'm very glad I did not order two sizes larger as one review suggested you might need to do. With the thick socks, a pair of long johns, and tapered blue jeans tucked in the boot, the side zip was snug but not uncomfortable at all. After 10 hours of wear today, I can say I'm quite pleased with the purchase.

I love these boots! I was searching for a waterproof snow and rain boot that I could wear slacks over so I could wear them to work. I work in a professional office. These fit the bill! They are really, really warm so I switched from wearing wools socks with them to nylon knee-highs. That worked fine plus, the office is cold so I have added warmth. They "mark-up" kind of easily though, like if you cross your ankles, the suede leaves marks, but a towel or suede stone seems to be rubbing the marks right out. Highly recommend.

These boots are so comfortable & warm! I thought maybe because of the price they wouldn't be as good as the more expensive ones. These are awesome!

I was pleasantly surprised at the way these boots fit. I am sure they would have been warm enough but the tread on the bottom was not good enough for me, too smooth. If you just need warmth these are your ticket! ran true to size.

I love the stylish appearance of these boots. I found them to be comfortable and true to size. I was a bit disappointed that they provide warmth above the ankles but not the lower foot. I was very happy to have pretty and waterproof boots for 2 years. By the third winter, they were no longer waterproof.

I love my Tundra boots. The weather hasn't turned cold enough yet, however, just moved to Nebraska and the winters are usually cold and snowy. They are so comfortable, they feel like you could wear them for hours. Size is true to size, they appear to be made very well and the price was great! I would recommend these for everyone. Stylish while purposeful.

Very comfortable and fit well! The only thing I would say is that if it is a rainy or particularly melt-y day, if you step in water it will go right through the zipper. So they really are meant exclusively for snow.

I’ll say they’re warm. I wish they were real suede, after all. Something about fit just feels off, they don’t hug my foot. I feel like I am walking in a plastic mold. I know it isn’t advertised as other than synthetic. Maybe I bought the wrong size or need heavier socks or something. I threw away the tag and my foot size won’t change over the year, so will give them a better chance next year with thick socks!

Beautiful boot, but runs a full size smaller than its true size (ie, if you wear a 9, it fits like an 8). So my daughter who wears a 9, needed a 10, but wanted to wear wool socks for extra warmth and ended up with an 11 and they do not look big at all. They are really pretty boots and Zappos rocks! Obviously it took a little bit to figure out the sizing and with all of their amazing customer service, free shipping and the final pair literally arrived at our door 12 hours after we placed the order and we couldn't be more pleased!

Hi Zappo's, I have been purchasing my shoes, sandals, and boots from you for several years. You have always carried my size Seven Narrow. Unfortunately, there were not many narrows available in boots this season, so I did buy Seven Medium. I like the boots very much and work well with thicker sock,. Please do keep the manufacturers informed that the narrow footed people love pretty shoes, sandals, and boots. LINDA A.

Bought these for my 10-year-old daughter, and she loved them! They look great, and they're very comfortable. The problem? I bought them in the fall, and the toes are already pulling away from the bottoms, making them pretty much useless at this point. To my mind, they're not great value if they can't even make it through one winter... Such a bummer!

These boots are absolute garbage. I don't remember when I purchased them, but we don't get enough heavy snow for me to wear them very often. I have worn them around 10 times over the years (MAYBE 15, but definitely not more than that) . They still looked brand new when I took them out of the box earlier this month. We just had quite the snow storm here in Virginia, and I wore them outside twice in the past two weeks. When I came back into the house after the first day I noticed white lines across the front of them. I didn't think too much of it because I figured it was snow. Today I wore them again, and noticed they still had those white lines. I thought maybe they were dirty, but when I took a closer look I could see that the fabric was damaged. I then looked over the entire boot to find that they are damaged like that multiple places. Since they looked brand new before the most recent snow storm, I think the fabric cracked and fell apart from the cold temperatures. That is extremely poor quality. My husband purchased a different brand of snow boots after I did, and wears his way more often than I wear mine. He even uses his to shovel snow. I just use mine to walk to the mailbox and around the yard. His boots still look wonderful, and mine look like they've been abused. Take a look at the photos and you'll see how the rest of the boots still look new. There's barely any pilling inside the boots, and even the soles look great, but they have cracks in the fabric. Very poor quality. Skip these. They're not worth the price.

I loved the way they look and feel, but unfortunately I had to return them because they do leak wet snow. They are great for dry snow though.

Fit and size were perfect! I’m usually a 7 1/2 in shoes but in boots I’m usually an 8 and it fit perfect! It is waterproof and for some reason I feel like it somewhat looks like suede. I love these boots since I was looking for something that was warm and professional but not too bulky. I would recommend to buy. They arrived in only 3 days. So pleased with my purchase

These boots are comfortable and perfect for wearing in the snow and on slushy streets after the fact.
I ordered these boots in anticipation of a blizzard. When the boots arrived on time but with a slight imperfection, the Zappos customer service rep told me to keep the boots and that she would also send me a new pair. Upon delivery of the new pair, she suggested I donate the first pair to charity!
It's such a pleasure making purchases from Zappos. Not only are they efficient, they have great customer service and a huge heart as well!

These boots came in one day. Excellent service and great boots. I wore them in the house all morning. They run true to size, are super comfortable and warm and lightweight. The zipper has piece behind it to prevent water entering into side of boot. I have not worn them in snow yet, but looking forward.

I LOVE THESE BOOTS. I have some foot issues (recently had ankle surgery in Sept to repair some tendons, and I have a benign tumor in the arch of my very flat feet), and because of the recent surgery I was looking for some boots that were functional, stylish, and above all, comfortable/supportive. I'm typically a 7 but usually like to order up in boots and sneakers, so I ordered an 8 in these and although slightly loose, they overall fit really well and I don't mind the extra space in case I'm wearing thicker jeans or socks. I did take 1 star off for "style" simply because I prefer brown-colored boots...and Tundra, if you read these, please make this boot in a coffee/cognac brown color!! That said, I know I will still make plenty of use with the black ones and they appear dressy enough for work, parties, etc. For reference, I'm 29, 5'2", 140lbs, and the boots come up about 5 inches below my knees. I have not yet experienced wearing them in rain or snow but feel confident based on the material that they will hold up well.

They feel clunky. The bottom portion of the boot is very rigid, and where intersects with the calf portion there is a seam that cuts into the ankle. They're not comfortable. Not worth it, eventhough the price is attractive.

These boots are attractive and comfortable, and felt true to size in the foot. Unfortunately, the boot was too wide around my leg and gaped in the front and back of my calf. A shame . . . had to send them back.

Nice boot, well constructed and looks like it would be waterproof. I'm returning it because I'm concerned it won't be warm enough. The fur trim is just that - trim around the top. There's nothing warm and fuzzy inside.

Not a bad boot, just not my boot. Even though it was lightly padded along the calf area, It did not offer the thick, warm and cozy feeling I was looking for. Bottom is sturdy and feels like it could hold up to some weather. Not sure it would hold up to very cold weather, so another reason it went back.
