Customer Reviews Hunter Original Gloss

Love these boots, wear them in the snow, gardening, and with skirts to work. Overall, a stylish and functional boot.

I ordered these after a disaster in NYC with a pair of North face boots, I noticed that everyone that was able to maneuver the snow and slush were wearing Hunter boots. Having never tried them on I ordered several different types of Hunters. I have always had issues with my calves. My calves have a circumference of 14.5, with the fleece liner the boot bunched up on me. Nice boot but no space to tuck the pants in once that fleece liner went in. I purchased a size 8 boot but went with a medium liner, much snugger. I was disappointed to see they are made in China, high price point to have been outsourced to China.

They're great! I actually had to purchase one size down from my normal shoe size. My next purchase will be the Hunter socks that complement. I've been wearing snowboarding socks to keep my feet warm.

I ordered these boots from Zappos, knowing thet are a respectable, reliable company. They are the best boots to wear in the rain. They look grear and feel better. The color is awesome! Thank you Zappos for treating every order like it was the only one!

I love them yet I wish the shaft hight had been a liitle bi higher. The interior lining should be warmer yet the fleece helps. Wish they had been made in the UK.

I love my Hunter boots! I'm an 8 1/2 and these boots only come in whole sizes, so they don't fit perfectly. If you wear a half size, I recommend going with the lower whole size--I went with an 8, the 9s were way too big. Very comfy but a bit too snug to wear the cute thick socks underneath.

These aren't going to make you feel like a fashionista, but they are practical, nicer looking rain boots, essential for those of us living in Seattle, where it rains 10 months out of the year and where no one ever cleans out their gutters. These are quite wide, and I have wide feet. I imagine they're made that way to accompany thick socks to wear in cold weather. If you are someone who often orders a little larger to accommodate wide feet, don't with these boots.

I love, love, love these boots. I got them in violet and the color pops. The color you see is what you get. My only problem is that I have medium sized calves, which means that I can't wear the Hunter Wellie socks with the boots because they would be too tight. If you have larger calves you may want to consider trying the Huntress. Other than that, they are comfortable and look great on.

Although these boots are great for keeping out the rain and snow, they are not warm at all (even with the welly liners). I live in Chicago, and cannot wear these during the colder winter months.

I love the color of these boots. They brighten up any rainy or slushy day. Plus they clean up really well with just a damp cloth. There are two things I wish were a bit different. The opening around my calf is very snug; so much so that by the end of the day I have to get help to pull them off. I don't have particularly large calves, but I am athletic. Even if they were just a half inch wider or so, it would make a big difference. The other problem is on a hot and humid summer day, these roast my feet and legs, making them virtually unwearable. I'd like to see Hunter figure out a more breathable boot for those warmer months.

These boots are adorable; however, they are very tight around the calf. Read reviews before purchasing, because I did not and now I have to return them.

I had wanted a pair of Hunter boots for at least a year, so I finally ordered these in the red gloss. I ordered a half size down and found that they are a bit snug in the calf, but they do fit - even with jeans tucked in. They are super comfy and dry, and I've received many compliments so far. I'm looking forward to the next rainy day!

Loved the boots. Everyone said they ran big, so order down a size. I agree they run big but I don't like my toes all the way to the top of the boot.

Super cute boots. I've only worn them once and they aren't the most comfortable but I am hoping they break in a little in the heel / ankle. I got a size 8 and usually wear an 8.5 and the fit is right. The socks (bought separately) are a little uncomfortable because the stitching around the toe is very thick, and they don't stay up over the boots though.

These boots do keep my feet dry, and I love that they're a few inches taller than the average rain boot, so they look sleeker overall. The fit could be better, though - I usually wear US 7.5; 38 was too small so I have to wear 39, which actually feels big. Also, the insole started tearing after I wore them a few times and the arch support could be better.

Yeah, great boots! A few things to note: 1) I measured my foot and used Zappos sizing and it said I was a size 10 (my foot measures about 10" from heel to big toe, no sock). I've never been a size 10, more like a size 8 or 8.5, so I ordered the 8 and they are great for fit. 2) these boot totally rubbed my one ankle bone beyond belief. I tried thin socks, thick socks, liners, etc. but the only thing that worked was buying a pair of inserts and placing them on top of the insert already in the boot. This cuts down a smidge on the height of the boot on the leg, but if it's the only way I can walk without pain, I'll take it. Overall I love them, but wish I didn't have to modify and spend $45 for a pair of inserts to make them work. Great grip in the muddy and dog poopy park and wonderful through puddles of all sizes.

I was excited to try the "gloss" Hunters because the description says the circumference is an inch larger than the originals but unfortunately they fit exactly the same as the other pairs I've tried. I could get them over my calves, but not comfortably.

Love these boots! They are great in cold soggy weather. The treads on the bottom make sure you won't slip on wet leaves. The height of the boot also makes sure that your feet won't get wet. A great investment.

The boots look fantastic, the color is bright, shiny and perfect. The size run a bit large. The boots are too heavy in my opinion, but the look is as I said perfect.

I love the color of these boots! It's just really happy and bright fun color for a rainy, drab day. The fit is true to size, but the first time I wore them they did rub the back of my heel. They are extremely comfortable and great boot to walk around in in nasty weather. A tad expensive but overall worth the buy if you can justify wearing often.

Great-looking boot, but had to return these. They definitely run almost a whole size too large.

I highly recommend these boots. After a rough winter and a few basement floods I wore out my cheap pair of wellies and decided to invest in a pair of Hunter Boots. I had the opportunity to test out my new Hunter Wellies this past week and I love them! I have the black gloss...adorable! The fit is slightly loose in the ankle, and a little snug on my athletic calves. However, I have already noticed some stretching out. I have found the boots to be true to my size 8. Definitely worth the investment. The boots are stylish, yet practical.

I had to return them for a smaller size (a 9 for a 10). I wear a 10 but my foot slid all over inside them. The 9 is fine and very comfortable. They're kind of "clunky" looking in bigger sizes but then most shoes are when you are "blessed" with big feet!

I ordered a size 7 (down a size from my regular size 8) as I read that they run big. They arrived the next day (fast shipping) and while the boot fit me perfectly there was no room in the calf to insert jeans, etc. Mind you I have quite skinny legs. So I returned the boots and ordered an 8. The boot now has room in the calf for jeans, etc. but the boot itself is too big. I feel very frumpy walking in them. I kept them as I will insert the socks in the boot in the winter, but overall I was disappointed in the boot.
