Love my first pair of Hunter rain boots. I originally higher boots in Toms brand and they can't compare to these. These ones are far more comfortable and I could walk in them for hours. Thank you Zappos.

True to fit. Usually wear 7.5 in regular combat style boots. Size 7 Hunter left me with plenty of room for boot socks and Hunter boot socks. Extra tip...perfect for quick on and off for yoga classes or other activities. ????

Love my short hunters!! I originally had the tall and liked but too tight on my large cavs. It was a production to get them off my feet (and kinda embarrassing). I then bought the chooka brand and loved them until they tore on the side. I decided to try the hunters again. Glad I did. The short are stylish, comfortable and will be wearing forever. Love Zappos too. Best customer service out there.

I ordered these and the refined boot. I liked the look of these more but they do feel a little big around the toes. I might try the Hunter boot sock to see if that makes them better.

WOW!!! So comfy! I own a pair of the original talls which are so pretty, but not the most comfortable on the calf. These are not only adorable, but they are so light!!!! And the foot bed is more comfortable than the originals. So glad I decided to get these!!!!

these boots are so comfortable to walk in and soft. Though they run slightly big you can always wear thicker socks. Just wished they ran half sizes but overall I like everything about these rain boots. It keeps my feet dry and the color is nice

I always wear 6.5 for boots. For Hunter boots, I ordered size 6 and it fits perfectly. Very soft and stylish.

These boots are amazing! I bought them for my 18 yr. old daughter-she loves them!!She says they are very comfortable and extremely stylish. She normally wears an 8.5 so I bought an 8--it fit well! Thanks again Zappos!!!

I usually hate rain boots (I always used to get them from Target. The liner would come out, my feet would smell, they aren't stylish and the rubber is uncomfortable) however these boots are AWESOME. They are stylish and comfortable. The only minor complaint I have is that my feet aren't really able to breathe, so they get a bit sweaty and smell. However, they keep my feet dry!

I am so happy with these boots, I wish it would rain every day so I could wear them. I tried on several different versions of this boot (original, original tall, and the tour short). The tour is defintely the least restrictive and clunky on my feet. I don't feel weighed down at all when I walk, like I did with the original lines. I've walked 1 mile + in these boots in the rain and they were still comfortable. Lots of compliments too. Order up a size if you plan to wear thick socks.

What lovely boots! I was expecting an average pair of rainboots, but these are above and beyond. The rubber is supple, the shape is refined and classic. They fit my 10 Wide feet well, with no pinching around the toe mound or on the top of the foot (as I also have high arches) as I was concerned they might. The foot bed is soft, although I will probably add an insole with more arch support. They really do fold down quite small for travel as well! And my pair came with a free Hunter drawstring backpack.

I love you these boots. However they only last about 1 1/2 years. This was my second pair since 2017 and both had rips in them by the 1 1/2 mark. I think they should last longer for the price.

Highly recommend for those with extra large calves.
Tour boots seem to be the best rain boots for walking because they are light. Heel does slip up & down with each step, so will need hunter socks or footies or tights & leg warmers. These boots should be worn loose. I'm a small 7 1/2 & purchased a 7 which was perfect.
Returning because on me, they don't make it past the hems of my slightly cropped jeans (I'm only 5'9"). The 16" calf splays & makes my shins look broken. The calf is so big that it's effectively like wearing buckets instead of boots. Would not work if you want to take a walk while it's raining. Ample protection against most puddles. Very nice matte rubber. Returning to purchase tall tour boots.
Very glad there is no arch support, because my arches are healthy because I usually wear barefoot shoes. But there is room for orthotics if you want them. Good rainboots are hard to find. I think Hunter Tour is the best.

For hot, humid weather, the Hunter packable boot is the way to go and the shorter height helps too. It is more flexible and easier to walk in than other heavy boots. I don't think it is as much of a value as a Chooka or Ugg rain boot because Hunter did not put any money into the comfort factor of the insole. I am keeping these because I am in a bind and need them soon, but I would recommend checking out those two brands if a) you need a cold weather boot or b) you need more support in an insole. I bought the matte black and like the versatility of it.

Love these for their purpose! Not a run around all day in without an insert.
Truly packable, they run at least a size larger though, I am a solid 9 and had to return for an 8,still plenty of room.

I do love these boots. Pricey, but they fit snugly and I love the matte black finish. I live in south Florida. Can't believe I waited this long to buy a waterproof boot. I wear them primarily to walk the dog (no more wet sneakers). However, wore them to work in a downpour the other day and everyone loved them!

Much lighter than the original, but also feels cheaper, more flimsy and less comfortable. For the same price, I'd go with the original.

Overall I loved these shoes. I ordered them in size 8. I had to return them as they were too wide for me on the calf. I wish they were narrower.

I thought that these boots would be perfect to pack for a trip where I'll be doing a lot of walking in wet weather. The original hunters fit perfectly in a 9, but are too heavy to pack easily. Alas, the toe box on these boots are much smaller than the toe area on the originals. I have bunions and a hammer toe, and these boots pressed down on top and squeezed my bunions. A 10 wouldn't have helped--length was fine.

I wanted to love these, as I have lusted over Hunter boots for far too long. However, just standing around you can feel the hard seem of the heel where it meets the sole. Walking was uncomfortable because of this ridge pressing into my heel, so there was no way I could keep them. Overall impression, I think I came to the Hunter party too late. The manufacturing just isn't on par with the price anymore. Sad. :(

Tried these out around the house and they were ok but not that much foot stability for a pricey rain boot. Still they are cute and i wanted to keep them. Walked a short distance on my backyard golf course and found no arch support going down small hills. This is so important to me therefore a bad score. I'm sending them back.

Disappointed that these lasted only a little over a year, with only about 6 months of actual use. My boots have slits on the sides from the sole and the upper coming apart. Disappointing as reviews make this company seem so reliable.
