Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Bean Boots 8" Fleece Lined Insulated

With as many complaints I saw about sizing with all the L.L. boots, I opted to roll the dice. I lost. Why on earth are boots made so wide at the top, that the leather has to overlap to even come close to snugging at the ankle and above?! That tells me the fit of this boot gets even worse over time, as there is no adjustment left for tightening once that leather stretches. Furthermore, why can I buy boots from brands xxxxx, xxxxxxxxx, xxxxxxx, xxxxxx, and the list goes on, and never have to be guessing what will fit me? So, my advice to LL Bean, do more than read the reviews, fix the problems customers complain about, as they all say the same ole story. Outright stupid to be ordering boots 1 1/2 sizes different than any other boot made In America or from around the globe.

Received the boots they looked very nice good quality. Wore them next day archery hunting. problems started to surface after walking about half a mile to one of my climbing tree stands the right boot started cutting in to my ankle causing discomfort. after posting for a few hours i decided to still hunt a big circule back to cabin. Big mistake by the time i got to the cabin i could hardly walk the right boot was rubbing me raw, I took of boots at cabin and looked inside the boot . the rubber was sewn too far down in the boot the rubber bottom was sticking out like a wedge against my ankle. these boots should have some sort of leather covering the area where the rubber is sewn to keep the area flat. after a few hours I had my old rockies at the cabin so I put them on ; what a difference soo comfy compare dto your boots. and yes the rockies are much lighter too. I sent back the boots as I couldn't use them . even though the materials are quality the inside design is 1910 you got to up date that rubber to leather area somehow.

Over priced and cheaply made, extremely uncomfortable boots. I guess people pay so much money for these because they used to be good, Idk but these are the most expensive and most uncomfortable boots I've ever purchased. Steering clear of bean boots from now on.
