Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 8" Bean Boots

Love the quality, the style but why is the fit not true to size???

I sized down as recommended and they are still a little loose. They work for me as I just wear thicker socks in the winter. There is some quality control issues with the seams not totaling lining up, but they are still water proof and no issues, just visually you get a little upset on how much these things cost. Walking around is comfortable, but if you're not used to a narrow heel you may accidentally roll your ankle for a bit. Wearing them all day isn't an issue. For winter they are great and nice and waterproof but even with thick socks your feet will get cold after a bit. If you're outside a lot I would recommend the insulated set. The ability to get these resoled really drove to go this route.

I was surprised that they are so easy to wear. I have worn them a lot over the last few weeks other than the strings I like a lot.

Item was as described. right fit and height. they feel great when wearing them

The boots are very comfortable. I like them.!!!!!!!!

10 EE Maine hunting non insulated doesn't come in 12 inch tall ? Y had to bye in 8 inch can't tuck pant legs in

As per fitting instructions, the boots fit me perfectly. My only concern is that because the boots are not insulated, the boots are cold while wearing them outside. Good wicking ski socks helped keep my feet warmer.

My Dad bought brown Bean Boots in the 1960s. I bought them starting the 1970s and again in the 1990s. I would like to buy them again now. But, what happened to brown? Please bring brown uppers back. It's the color that matches the hunting boot. It's the color that says LLBean.

Decided to treat myself to these classic shoes for my 30th birthday. Overall, thrilled to have them. There are some apparent scratches on the boots and some fraying threads but no major problems.

Great boots but the diameter of the laces is too small and soft for quality boots like these.

Love the boots but they were too tight for my husband. Had to return them and request a wide width which is out of stock.

Great boot quality as always. 4 star only because they are difficult to get on

Sizing is, of course, weird. Too long and too narrow for standard size. I just tighten the laces and they're ok. If I find out these have been glued and not "hand stitched" (as some reviews have shown), I better get a refund, regardless of time...

Boots look good and are comfortable although they run large. i have an older pair of boots size 13, ordered size 12 and the 12's are longer than the 13's. This makes it hard to order the correct size.

The classic Bean Boot style. What's more to say? Timeless protection in wet muddy conditions. Even better if you can get them on sale. This is a 5-star boot, however I rated it as a four out of five only because it is no longer made in the 10" tan color. This was the iconic "Real Bean Boot".

Working out side in the elements @ the airport, these boots handle the wet and mud just fine. Was doubtful about ordering them a size small, but they fit perfectly.

both the leather top and the rubber foot are very stiff and have no padding in the foot. It will take some breaking-in to make them comfortable. Otherwise, they are just what I wanted in terms of fit and utility.

Great quality but sizing is tricky. I am a 10.5 in almost all shoes. I purchased an 11 and it was way too big, like an extra inch long in the toe. I tried on a size 10 and it was perfect. In the process of exchanging.

Like any boots have to be broken they are also have a little more space than Im accustom.

Sizing is way off with these shoes. They run a full size to a size and a half too big. Had to exchange for a smaller size which was fine in store. Other than that, they're great!

It is a good boot for snow and situations where you might have to be in standing water. But it has little or no insulation, so good warm socks are essential. I was surprised there was no insulation, but it is still a good boot for snow and water. So I would still recommend it.

He is typically a 10 in shoes, but these looked massive on him. He had a solid 2" of space between his toe and the tip of the shoe. We went to the Mast General store in our town and he ended up getting a different pair of Bean boots...that are a size 8... He tried on the size 8 in these and they were wayyy too small, but the insulated size 8 boots we ended up getting were perfect.

Good boot. Sales rep at LL Bean was right on in getting the right size for me. Have been wearing them to do yard work and they are very comfortable but now wish I had purchased the same boot with some lining as they get cold after a couple of hours outside. I'll put an extra pair of socks on. They should be perfect in warmer weather.
