Customer Reviews Hunter Original Short Gloss

I am 5'2," so most rain boots are too long for me. These are the perfect length, and very cute to boot. I got them in the graphite gloss, which go with almost everything in my cold-weather capsule wardrobe. I find that rain boots in general are a little difficult to walk in, and these are no exception. However, they are as comfortable as rain boots can be.

I absolutely love these boots! I typically wear a size 12 but was told that these boots run about a size big. I ordered a size 11 and they fit. I have always wanted the tall version of these boots but my calves are too big. I ordered the shorter pair and I love them. They are very comfortable and have great traction. I have received several compliments when wearing these boots. This was my first pair of Hunter boots and I would definitely purchase again. I love Zappos! Fast shipping and awesome customer service!

This is my 1st pair of Hunter rain boots and I will never own another brand. These keep my feet dry when I am walking all around campus. I wore them the day I got them. I had no problems whatsoever. I wouldn't suggest wearing ankle socks since they don't stay up too well. I am 5'1 and the short boots fit me much better than the talks I tried on in store. Can't wait to buy another pair! So worth the money.

I absolutely love these boots! I chose the short style because I have wide calves and was worried the tall style wouldn't fit over my calves. These hit just before my calves start to get wide (about the same spot where Classic Uggs hit). They are a little more stiff than rain boots that I have had in the past, but I found these to be easier and more comfortable to walk in (I would not recommend them for any sort of distance, but they are perfect for my work commute on rainy days). The only downside that I have experienced is that the top digs in ever so slightly (likely due to my wide calves. If you do not have wide calves this will not be an issue). Not enough to be unbearable, but enough to notice it.

My daughter picked this color out. She loves the lavender color! These are well made and fit more like a shoe in the sole. They run slightly big, but allows for a thicker boot sock. My daughter prefers to use her own socks over the Hunter boot socks which are ok but nothing special. Love Zappos because they ship so quickly and exchanges or returns are so easy!!

Best boots! I hesitated for a few years because of the price but, now wish I had just bought them. They are really comfortable and so stylish. I usually wear a size 9 but, I ordered an 8 after reading other reviews. They fit perfect with enough room for jeans and socks. Definitely order a size down from your normal shoe size. I ordered the grey.

I have the Hunter boots in green, tall version and love them. I felt the short red would be better for me for work. Usually, I wear a 7.5 and ordered the 7 based on live chat. The fit is perfect , even with the felt liners.

I am very impressed with Zappos. I have never had a problem. The boots arrived the next day and the fit was perfect.

Love em! Wore out my last pair after years of use. Great fit and classic style!

These boots are pretty comfortable, considering they are basically big hunks of shiny rubber with some fabric lining on the inside. I am 5'8" and they come up to my mid calf, nearly the largest part of my calf. I have big calves (we are talking 14" over here) so I was worried they would not fit, but they do with some space to cram my jeans down them or wear them with leg warmers inside the boots and my jeans on the outside. One drawback is that if you do not wear leg warmers, boot socks, or jeans crammed between your legs and the boots around the top edge if you have larger calves you will likely get a friction burn on your legs where the top edge rubs your legs as you walk. Not a problem if you plan to only wear them with one of the Hunter Boot Socks though. I usually wear an 8½ or 9 in most shoes (Sanuks, Toms, New Balance) but an 8 in the Ugg Cardy boots, so I ordered the 9 as recommended by the Hunter website and there is enough space to comfortably wear two pairs of socks or a pair of Hunter Boot Socks and another pair of regular socks. I think size 8 would have been too small, but I also like my shoes on the looser side, so take that advice with a grain of salt.

I love my grey patent rain boots! They are perfect for year round in the south where knee boots would be too hot in the spring. The grey acts as a neutral with a little bit of pizzazz.

I absolutely love these boots! They fit perfect and they keep my feet nice and dry and are so cute! I will definitely buy another pair when they come out with plum again!

These are awesome! I bought them as my daughter's birthday present. She was thrilled! I even want a pair now!!!

love my boots! I bought for rainy days and to work in a garden. They fit well. True to size. Good quality. I would buy again!

After much going back and fourth, I decided on the short gloss boots. I am so glad that I did! I am 5'1" and think that the tall boots would have more than cut off my legs. These run big - I wear a 7½ and went with the 7 and there is room for thick socks. These must be worn with socks, otherwise your foot will flop in it and there is not enough insulation inside. The buckle on the side does not adjust; it is just for show and it comes undone easily but is not a deal breaker.

Love these boots. Hunter boots have been a staple for many years. I particularly like this glossy grey this year. I live in an area of cobblestone and dirt or uneven footpaths. Frequently t's foggy or damp. These are terrific for those conditions but what really makes them indispensable is when they take me right down to the beach. I find that with other types of shoes and boots, I just don't walk on the sand down to the shore. With these on, I have no reluctance and head straight down there. Without them, I begin to miss my beach walks and find that I have to plan well with other footwear, not with these. I am glad they do not offer "arch support" because I cannot stand the feel of anything under my high arches. I frequently wear them with wooly socks.

Took a long time for me to decide to buy pricey Hunter rain boots,but then of course I wanted them immediately! Zappos delivered before the next rains came. My first Zappos experience. Just what I wanted and nicely packed.

After receiving these, it was obvious these boots were well made. Rubber is thick, shiny and boots are comfortable. I believe it's money well spent, that these boots will last a long time. My feet haven't gotten wet yet and don't expect that they will in my lifetime while I am wearing these. I'm in my 50s. I wear these when running the dogs in morning dew or just plain wet ground.

I have always wanted a pair of Hunter boots. I am plus size and was not sure if they would fit! But they fit great with plenty of room for jeans to be tucked in! I love the height of these boots because I do have chubby short legs so these boots are perfect! I usually wear 11 and the 10 is perfect! And they fit with chunky socks on!

Love these. Pure quality. Bought them for the garden, washing the car, et al. Perfect fit; replaced my old Hunters I literally had for decades.

Love those Wellies!! They do run a bit big, so I ordered a 7 even though I wear a 7 1/2 and they fit great!

First let me say ZAPPOS customer service is simply the best. After a different retailer order was cancelled (without them letting me know) and no response to my email, i kicked myself for not buying these from Zappos the first time around. When you shop with Zappos, there is never a glitch or issue they cant immediately rectify. I ordered a size 10. I wear 9-9.5 and the 10 leaves plenty of room for thick socks. Boots are super cute on! My only concern is the quality reviews now that they are Imported. I guess I'll find out in a year if these get cracks or lose the straps.

I'm so glad I sized up to an 8 in these even though I read reviews of them running large. They actually run small in my opinion. I usually wear a 7.5-8 in most brands and the 8 in these fits like a 7.5. They're quite snug putting them on but once on they fit well. There's a lot of extra room around my calves but my legs are quite thin. I'm 5'3" and 106lbs. Overall I love the look and height of these boots. The color is slightly more blue than a true grey. I haven't worn them out yet so that's why I didn't give the comfort rating 5 stars, just because I don't have the experience wearing them much yet. I'll also add that they are a bit heavier and more sturdy than I imagined they'd be, with a nice thick sole.

Great color, they did run big. I ordered one half size smaller than I usually wear, they felt a bit big but with socks are good. I ordered a second pair in a size smaller than the first order, just to make sure. They were definitely too small.
