Thought these were going to be an answer to my waterproof footwear. They fit and even fit my orthotics comfortably, were really comfy when I checked them out around the house before leaving for a monthlong biz trip in Europe. Unfortunately, the first day I wore them out in the rain, they leaked right into the shoes and even soaked the toe part of my orthotics. And this was in light rain. Total bummer. Had to schlep them all around Europe in my suitcase but couldn't even use them. I am hopeful that this was just a bad pair and the rest of you have not had waterproof issues. Would like to hear if anyone else has... if not, I might try ordering a new pair.

Bought these boots in 2 other colors. For some reason this pair did not fit as well & was not as comfortable as the other two so I returned them

These boots are so pretty. They look dressy even with the low heel. The suede makes them soft and comfortable. Bought them in tan and gray. Loved the blue but for some reason the pair I tried weren't as comfortable. Already had compliments on them.

This is a great navy boot! I'm between a 7.5 & 8 but based on reviews went with the larger size, it fits perfect! I initially wasn't crazy about the looks (wanted a plain boot) of these but they are the perfect height and color. They've grown on me and have already received compliments after my first wear. :)

Love these boots. Bought them in tan & gray. Good for casual or more dressier occasions for those of us who need the lower heel.

I wear a solid 9 shoe with moderate width - to a wide wide.
I will tell you all I do not own ANY shoes in an 8 1/2 or 9 1/2 - I never deviate from a 9.
I had such a hard time getting these boots on. (Black pair)
Not only that but I was so scared I was going to break the zippers - they were very delicate.
Once I shoved both my feet in the boots they felt very comfortable walking around my house.
But once again, taking them off, I thought I was going to break the zippers.
If you have narrow feet - go with your normal size.
Wide feet - size up 1/2 size and/or try 1 full size bigger to accommodate for socks.
I have severe back issues and these felt very comfortable.
As far as waterproofing - buy a spray at your local store and make sure to spray them very night in the winter to ensure they will STAY waterproof.
I'm going to try a 9 1/2.

Like the style and fairly comfortable. Hard to get on and color comes off around ankles. Have not worn them in rain yet.

I really love these boots and how they look. At first I thought they may be too pointy but I decided to keep them as I like the wood look heels and ribbon design. Got used to them and now they are my go to favorites. Will be ordered in midnight blue.

I wore these to my son's football game. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy to be wearing booties since we had had a ton of rain and the field was very wet. At the end of the game all the parents wearing tennis shoes were complaining about their soaked shoes/feet. I smiled and said "Mine are completely dry!" They had grass clippings all over them, but the next morning they were dry and I brushed them all off. The booties looked basically the same as before the game!!! Comfortable, too!!

These booties are so comfortable - I absolutely love them. I've loved Jacks sandals for years but these were my first pair of boots and I'm super happy with my decision to grab these!

These are super comfy and stylish booties. I got them for day to day at work and love that they’re waterproof too for those rainy days. The fit is a bit narrow so that may not work for some people. I couldn’t get my foot in a 7.5 even though length wise they may have been fine. I got the 8 and have no issues at all.

The fit was a little tight. I ordered size 9 , I wear a size 8.5. Shoe looks great, however it appears by the discoloration that the boot has been tried on several times. I have not worn the boot as of yet.
Trying to debate if I should send them back because I really like the style. I will probably send back because they were a little pricey. If anyone decides to purchase order a half sizeup.

Nice suede, low heel. Cute toe shape. Not much lining. I'm wearing a low cut sock inside for comfort . Bought them for the color.

Very stylish look. Braid makes them attractive. Lack of arch support and padding but I place a inexpensive shoe insert in and it makes a big difference. Although is says waterproof I always spray with a suede protector since the gray is on the lighter side.

Very pretty bootie! I felt it was a little narrow in width which was great for me. The top of the bootie was a bit large around my ankle. The decorative stitching is very attractive.

For me, this boot was a little too high. Unfortunately it hit my ankle a bit above what was comfortable when walking. But so cute, I hate to return them.

These booties were cute but run very large. The color (navy) was lovely but the sole of the shoe didn’t look very sturdy

I have many Jack Rogers booties in my closet. They always fit right out of the box and are extremely comfortable! I have this style in gray and get compliments all the time. But the tan color is more yellow-tan than brown-tone-tan, and not pretty. I got them on final sale, so now they're mine. Doubt I'll wear them.
