Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 8" Bean Boots

Good looking and seem to be well made. I like the fact that they are made in Maine, USA. Do seem to be quite expensive for boots that have no lining or sole pads. Hopefully they will last longer than their Chinese versions.

The size was true, good fit, easy on and easy off.

Love the colors, but the bean boot material is much softer than my winter bean boots. Overall, love the bean boot like my other bean boots

Never had the stitching on a pair or boots last more than a few years unless you put em on and take em off with great care. That's not how boots work.

Got these for my husband for his birthday, he absolutely loves them. They need a little bit of breaking in, but once the are, theyre very comfortable. I have a pair myself! Walking in rain or snow, my feet were completely dry!

I was a little concerned that it was recommended that size 8 1/2 I should go to size 7 and it did seem a little tight for a first couple of days. After a few days it was very comfortable. I was very impressed with how comfortable it was after standing and walking all day. This my new favorite boot. I even wear it when its not raining. Lol

Always been pleased with all the Bean boots Ive purchased. Bonus is that they are still made in the USA.

Ive worn LLB Duck boots for 50 years, and this pair is my all-time favorite! The color combination; orange soles, black boot and brown leather upper has no comparison.

I bought these because somehow my old pair had been lost during the last move we made. I normally wear a size 10 1/2 shoe and that always gives me a great fit. The LLB boot fitment guidelines recommended that if I wore a 10 1/2 shoe I should order these boots in size 9 if I wore wore light weight socks. Yes, it said to order a downsize of 1 1/2. because there are no half sizes in these boots. That seemed bizarre to me so I ordered a size 10 which should have been on the roomy side of fitting my feet instead of a recommended size 9. UPS delivered them yesterday and I tried them on this morning. and they were too tight and I wasn't really surprised because I do wear size 10 1/2 shoes. The sizing fit guidance was wrong, but there was another issue to deal with. The amount of full width leather they put where you normally encounter a tongue in other types of boots and between the two rows of shoe lace grommets is excessive between the instep and ankle. This causes a loose uncomfortable area when laced up. I needed to over tighten the laces at the top to prevent my foot from moving around. Uncomfortable, and I think it would have caused me blisters! Suggestion for LLB. Make these boots in half sizes. If size 10 1/2 were made they would have fit me and I would have been able to keep them. My last pair of these LLB Boots were great. Unfortunately, these had to go back.

I havent worn these much yet, but I love the way they look.

Owned a pair of these for years. this new version is not as comfy on the feets. The size seems a bit larger as well

I've been buying Bean boots for over forty years and have always been happy with the quality of the product, how it fits, and how well it holds up. (I have multiple pairs in different colors.) I just purchased my nephew's first pair, and he's very happy with how the boots fit and how well the boots're made. This is a great value for the price.

Great winter boot, very comfortable, wear them as much as I can. Enough room to wear thick socks when its cold, but still comfortable when wearing regular socks

Ordering a size lower than I wear worked well for me. I wear a size 10 boot and I ordered a 9.

I love these boots. I was thinking about not getting them because of the price but they are totally worth it. They feel good and I can even run with my dog in them. Also I took the advice of another reviewer that mentioned ordering them a size smaller for a better fit. That is the way to go. They run large.

love it, still breaking it in though. I took their advice on sizing and went one down as I don't anticipate wearing it with heavy wool socks, but still there's some play for a sock of medium thickness. only reason I removed a star is that the play worries me a little. otherwise stoked about them

The instructions state if you are a 9 1/2 shoe go down one size on the boot and on another set of instructions it says to go up one size. MAYBE it is me, but I found it confusing re-sizing boots that's why i returned them they were just too tight

The boot runs big , They are not the warmest boot. They are a good water proof boot. On cool days

I purchased the basic 8" bean boot size 14. Mainly for snow and rain occasions. I read a ton of reviews and even went on to YouTube and watched videos of people reviewing these boots. I normally wear a size 14 so I was concerned if they would fit or if I needed to upsize as recommended. I am comfortable in the size and have adequate room. I read where many people wear multiple socks for warmth in these but the few times I word them in extreme cold temperatures I had on a wool dock and felt comfortable. They're not uncomfortable but they are not comfortable to me either. I will replace the inserts with a more comfortable set soon. Keep in mind I weigh 370 pounds so there is some "extra" pressure on these dawgs. Quality looks great and the only thing I did before use was condition leather uppers. Boots seem to have enough grip on soles as I did not have any issues slipping on asphalt when clearing snow. These are not fashion or everyday boots for me. I bought them to keep my feet dry and so far so good. I would recommend these to anyone looking for s good quality boot. Do your research on various styles and there is some great videos online to point you in the best direction based on your needs. Appreciate the fact it's made in America too.
