I wear a solid 8 1/2 in shoes, sometimes a 9 in athletic shoes. Because I read that these run large, I ordered an 8.... way too big. Then I crossed my fingers and ordered a 7 - too small in the toes. I really really love these cute rainboots with lots of detail, but why don't manufacturers make half sizes? I have the same problems with Hunters - 9 is too big and 8 is too small. There's a reason people wear half sizes - that's what fits!

I LOVE my bee boots! I am a size 6.5, on the larger size, but I sized down after reading reviews and these fit perfectly! Even with thick socks! Super easy to slip on and off. I would sleep in them if I could!

Very comfortable and cute! I usually wear size 8 however based on the reviews that this shoe runs larger, I ordered size 7 and it fits perfectly. I also have wide feet with bunions but found no issues wearing this shoe. Im glad I bought this!

The material of the pair I got was very poor quality. Less than a year later, with light use, and the sole was coming unglued, as was the gusset below the ankle. The waterproof material was cracking. Also, they are uninsulated, so leave extra room for warm socks.

As other reviewers stated definitely order down (especially if you are a half size). These boots run big. I wear 6.5 and purchased a 6. There is plenty of room in the length...around the length of a 6.5...without it being too long. BUT, it’s pretty wide, especially in the heel. I would not be able to wear these with no socks because my heels flip flop around and they generally feel too big. However, with regular weight socks they fit just fine. All this said, my foot slips easily into and out of the boot with or without socks. They style itself is cute as can be and will work well for the purpose I purchased them which is to wear too and from the gym and to run errands on wet days (which is usually done on my way home from the gym, still in my gym clothes ?). Also, while there really is t any arch support the sole is nice and thick unlike cheaper boots where you can “fee” everything you step on.

These booties are very cute, easy to put on and take off, comfortable when I wasn't walking in them. Unfortunately, the trade-off is that they are very loose around the ankle and heel, and when I walked in them they slipped off my foot -- not entirely, but enough to make them difficult to walk in.

I love these! So cute and comfy. They are definitely actually made. I normally wear a 7.5, medium width. I ordered a 7 and they fit perfectly.

Super cute and comfy. Bought both these and Hunter equivalent and liked these way more just based on looks and comfort. Didn’t bother me that these were way cheaper too. Returned the Hunters and kept these.

I was thrilled with my boots. I usually wear an 81/2 M, but ordered an 8 in these, and they fit perfect. I plan on wearing them on the day the forecast calls for rain at Disney World. Taking a slip in arch support just in case I feel they need it, but for everyday wear if you're not on your feet all day, I think they would be fine without them.

Love these rain boots ! The rubber is soft and supple which makes them comfy and the inside bottom is lined and makes them cushy . They run very big ... so you have to size down...I wear anywhere from a 6 to a 7 US size and I went for a 6. I probably could have gone a half a size smaller but if I put socks on it works ! Love the boots

I love these boots. BUT. I ordered a size 5 and I was sent a size 36, which all of us small-footed women know is a US size 6. Sadly, 6 is the smallest size in these.

Some reviewers say these run large, but I think it just makes them easy to get on and off, so the sizing is fine with me. I got the brown leopard print and think these are the cutest boots ever. I wish the nice plush liners were removable, because I use these for yard and garden work and the liners are going to get dirty fast, but other than that I have no suggestions for improvement. They’re just about perfect. The soles offer good traction and they’re super easy to clean. I love ‘em!

I usually wear a 7 1/2, and have high arches and a wide front foot. A size 7 in these had no more room at the front, but fit well in width, so I would say they run a little wide.
The ankles have a lot of space in them, and are angled away from the leg a bit, so it seems they would not chafe your legs. However, they probably would get rain in the tops pretty easily. You would need fairly wide pants to go over the outside of these.
The 'gusset' area is a thinner rubber, so does stretch more than the rest of the boot, but should still be completely waterproof.
Flat rubber bottoms, sloppy standard rainboot fit. They are a bit wide and the insoles come out, so you could probably add your own.
Seemed to be nice quality, but I went with a cheaper pair in a more fun pattern, so I don't know how they hold up.

These were very odd. They arrived for my daughter and one shoe was huge the other she could barely put on. Yet both were marked size 5. Very poor quality control.

These boots are great for spring dog walking. The rubber is thick enough to be waterproof but thin enough to be flexible and not rub on my ankle anywhere. They are easy to slip on and off at the door. I love the ? and the contrasting yellow sole that makes these boots just a bit cuter than the rest.

Was very disappointed when I opened my shipment. One of the boots was very scuffed - almost as if it had been worn. Boots fit really well and I loved the look but I expected a product that’s in NEW condition.

This is my second purchase. My first purchase was of my regular size (size 7) and it was huge- even big socks didn’t help, so I ordered a second pair a whole size smaller (6) and they fit perfectly - with plenty enough room for socks. So, order a size smaller than you wear. They’re cute and fun and I love them.

These boots fit so fabulously, right out of the box. I purchased these to take on vacation where it would be very cold…and very wet. These boots kept my feet warm, dry and were so comfortable, walking all day long…they are now my comfort walking boots!

I usually wear 7 1/2 or 8. After reading reviews, I bought the 7 and they fit well. Looking forward to wearing them in the garden this coming spring.
