Nice quality but these shoes run really small. I could not even get my foot through the opening

Bought the size 7, a little too big and back tab ripped off first time I tried on. Returned and got a size 6, a little too small and back tab also ripped off first time I tried on. I kept them cause I desperately needed gardening shoes and they have solid arch support. Please work on securing the tab and would love to see half sizes!

Pull tab on back of shoe that is supposed to make slipping on easier broke at second wear. Disappointed. I did not inform bogs or request a refund or replacement. I'll continue to wear the shoe, which so far is pretty great otherwise, but what a bummer!

The material they are made with is different from previously. The new material is a stiffer rubber that doesn't have any give to fit comfortable.

These use a different last than the usual bogs boots. I was hoping for something easier to slip on and off, which they are, but the narrow toe box pinches and hurts my feet.

The shoes are cute and comfortable, but they are really, really hard to get on. I wanted a shoe to just slip on before I took the dog out for a short outing. Putting these shoes on always turns into a production.

This shoe has problems ! Its very comfortable but develops a white film over the top of it after wearing only 3-4 times ! They replaced them but the second pair did the same thing ! Looks bad - but the second time around was enough - im done with Bogs !

Shipping was quick and shoes are comfortable. Will not be purchasing again because the shoe started separately from the sole the 3rd time I wore them. Poorly made.

I absolutely loved these at first, but the sole started to split away from the shoe less than two years in and I can't even walk through damp grass without ending up with soggy socks. I really expected more from this brand, will not purchase again.

These are fine once you get them on, but definitely not slip-ons. The opening for the foot is very small, and you either have to bend down and tug them onto your heel, or (as I do) use a shoe horn. I wanted to use them as by-the-kitchen-door shoes for going in and out multiple times a day. These don't work so well for that. I can't find any other product that is better, though, so I'll keep them.

I have only had my boots for 1 rainy season and they are already leaking from the widest part of my foot where the rubber meets the sole. I would also say a main drawback is that after wearing them for a workday my feet get sweaty then feel cold about 4 hours in, so their moisture wicking technology doesn't work too great. My feet are not extra sweaty, so I've never had this issue before. I probably will not buy these again, which is a shame because I liked how they fit and they were overall pretty comfy otherwise. But the sweaty then cold feet and the leaking issue after one season is a dealbreaker for me.

Exactly what I needed but had to return. They don't make them like they used to. Roomy toe boxes are gone, and the quality is poor. No half sizes. I have 2 older pairs that I loved but sadly they are not the same anymore.

I've had such good luck with past Sauvie Chelsea models but the latest version is too narrow. Bogs has shrunken the toe box a lot, unfortunately. Since the rubber is so sturdy on these, the customer service rep said it won't stretch. So I had to return them. I have no idea which Bogs will accommodate my feet now. I don't want to go to a full boot because it's hard to travel with those. BAH!

Too narrow! This is the third time I've bought the Sauvie Chelsea so I thought I knew what I was getting, but Bogs has narrowed the toe box considerably since my last pair. These are squishing my forefoot to the point of pain. SUCH a bummer. I'd really come to depend on these for the fit .

I bought a pair of these boots to replace a beloved pair of the identical model. Unfortunately, Bogs has changed the fit significantly. They are really NARROW now. If you have a bunion, be prepared for a painfully cramped toe box. And, inexplicably, the heel feels a bit longer. BUMMER!

The tab at the back of one shoe was not attached properly, so the 3rd time I went to pull it on the stitching pulled out where it is attached to the heel area. I'd say the QC dept. is lacking as well as the worker doing the construction. For as much as these products cost, this should not be an issue!

Tough to slide/slip on. Have a similar size in tall boot with no issues. This, however, too hard to get on and not comfy. Will order something else a lot easier to slide on in a garden shoe.

The lining is tight at the top & it hurts, after little time it rubs blisters on the top of my feet. In order to wear these for any amount of time I have to wear high socks which look silly. I have very small feet so I don't think these would do well with larger feet/ankles.

Very uncomfortable! I bought them to walk the dog and the top of the shoes hits the top of my ankle and is stiff and hard and digs in. I have only worn them twice and really hate them. Can they be returned? I will not wear them again.
