Customer Reviews Hunter Original Short Gloss

First off, let me start by bragging on how helpful and awesome the customer service I received was. The woman I talked with on the phone was extremely kind and went above and beyond to help me out. Now on to the shoes themselves. These boots are great! They are a great size (for those of us whose legs are too short for the regular Hunters) and they look very cute :) the only thing I would suggest is going probably a half size smaller than what you're used to wearing. All in all, the boots are a great product and a great investment!

These boots fit me perfectly. The boot fit nicely around the foot area, had room for my high instep and room for wide calves with an adjustable side strap.

Great boots overall! After having these boots for 2 years now, they haven't failed me through heavy rain and deep puddles. A little heavy, but all rainboots are, pretty much. I'll be saving up some money to get the taller boots in the future, but these are great too!

I bought these for my term abroad is Edinburgh, Scotland and they are lifesavers. They are really comfortable for a lot of walking and keep your feet try. Plus they are way packable than my tall Hunter boots. I do wish the gloss didn't scratch as easy, but overall they are a must.

Adorable! I bought these for a trade show that I am working in a very rainy state. Per the customer service rep at Zappos, I ordered a full size smaller and they fit like a glove.

Love my Original Short Gloss boots! I first purchased the Original Gloss Boots, but they were entirely TOO tall. I am 5'6 and the boots actually hit my knees, making it difficult to walk and look rather odd....so I sent them back and ordered the Original Short Gloss. These are the perfect height (comes to about mid-calf). Mine are the graphite color, but they appear much lighter in color than it shows online. I'm wearing them now...perfect for rainy spring days in Indiana! Very comfortable and light in weight. I purchased the short Welly socks in yellow to wear with them on colder days.

These boots are very well made and comfy. (I did add an arch support; now they're perfect.) The color is not as blue as the photo on the website indicates -- it's more gray than that -- but I'm still pleased, overall. The shape of the boot is stylish and pleasing, too.

These are adorable. I was sad that the tall boot doesn't fit a larger calf, but these are cute enough that I don't feel I'm missing out. Have to wear thin socks -- there's no warmth without socks and nowhere to fit thick socks.

I LOVE these boots!! I never write reviews but I know how valuable they are when ordering shoes online; I always read reviews related to shoes/fit. I usually wear an 8 1/2 but after reading the reviews on these boots, I ordered an 8. They fit perfectly!! I did order the Wellie socks as well and can't imagine wearing them without the socks. Keep my feet warm and dry in this unusual weather year!!

I'd never given any thought to Hunter until my granddaughter added these boots to her Christmas list. I was totally impressed with the quality of these boots. They're exceptionally well-made - a nice heavy boot with a good lining. And according to my granddaughter, they fit well too. She wears them with the boot liners (cuff folds over the top of the boot) and they look great. The best surprise was the overnight delivery from Zappos! I'm very happy with this purchase.

Great boot. Wore them in the snow with good socks and they preformed well as alternative to snow boots. No slip. Wide fit in ankle/calf area

bought these for my wife for Christmas. She absolutely loved them! The size was as other have said...runs a little larger than normal. This worked out perfectly since my wife usually wears between a 9 and 9.5. I bought these in a 9 and got her the "liner socks" which she also loves. Great styling and she loves that these have a lower heel than some other similar styled Wellies. As always...Zappos customer service sets the bar for all others!

Great color and style. I'm short so the boot height is flattering versus leg-swallowing. It's reasonably roomy for the thick-calved,fairly unfitted except for the narrow dorsal part of the foot bed which serves to anchor your foot in the boot. It was a tight squeeze to get into the boot, but roomy for every other part of the foot. Its remarkably comfortable for walking and the fire engine red color is VERY bright.

Purchased these for my mom as a Christmas gift and she was thrilled. Fit her well and function great in rain/snow/salty conditions.

Best fitting rainboots! My daughter's second pair. She loves the shorter style, and finds the high a little too snug in the calves.

I bought these as an alternative to my knee-high yellow Hunter wellies, which are classic and great for serious rain, but can be a little clunky. These shorter wellies are perfect for driving or walking around the city. The gloss makes them look like patent leather - very stylish.

Wow! Went to Nordstrom (love them); did not have this real Red color. I wear an 8 1/2 - 9 with flats, I ordered an 8. Perfect fit. Thank you for your speedy delivery - ordered Saturday reg s/h, arrived my office on Tuesday! Amazing. Love them!

They are so cute! Not as comfortable as they should be. A little pricey but they are my second pair I love them!

Love these boots! The fit like a glove. I wear a 9.5 and order a 9 in them and they are perfect. I also ordered the socks (boot liners) that go with them, I don't recommend them. The seems are quite big and hurt my toes and every time I would pull my foot out the sock would com with it. Quite inconvenient!

Great boot - never owned it before, but I heard great things so I ordered them for school. Read that they ran small so since I am a half size, and they don't make this boot in half sizes I ordered a full size larger. They are way too big in length and width. Very nice gloss, and great height on my calf. I am rather short, 5' 3", and I ordered the shorter boot because I felt the knee length one would be too much for me and swallow me whole so to speak. My last words on this product: great quality, runs very large, order a half size to full size smaller than usual.

These are the most durable and comfortable rain boots I have ever owned. I usually wear between a 6/6.5 and I ordered these in a 5. They were perfect. I now have a few colors to coordinate my rainy days!

This boot was true to size and very comfortable. I like the gloss, it is sharp but not too catchy.

I got these boots despite the fact that I live in Arizona, and it barely rains. I lived in Upper Michigan for 15 years so rain boots were a must have. They are very stylish for rain boots. They are also amazing quality, you don't need to worry about loose stitching because it is all rubber. Remember to wear a thick sock with these. The rubber is very solid, so the top of the boot stays in place. The only negative is the price, they are very pricey, so I'll probably only be wearing them twice a year, so I got the short ones. I really hope you consider getting these great shoes!

This is the best rain boot on the planet! Love, love, love everything about them! They are functional, comfortable, and the style is just timeless! Highly recommend!

I had tried several less expensive pairs of rain boots before I decided to splurge on these. It was worth it! They are super comfy and the color is great. With the Hunter fleece socks they are great, but they are great with regular socks too. I am 5.2 and found this shorter height to be just right (taller boots in the past have been very uncomfortable).
