Awesome rubber boots made in Canada. They fit 1/2 to 1 size larger. I'm size 9 1/2 and ordered 9 which are still roomy
This is the perfect muck boot, in fact this is my second pair. These Canadian made boots are extremely durable and long wearing. The sole seems to last forever. These are not insulated so they are perfect for mild weather. They are very easy to put on and take off due to the large opening for the foot. I would not wear these for 8 hours on end since they are not breathable and tend to get sweaty, however of all the rubber boots I've had these ones have enough free space around the foot and calf to let air in and out the top. These boots are sized larger than expected, I'm a size 9 1/2 and ordered a size 9 boot. This size is perfect for me because I can still wear a thick sock and not feel cramped in the foot. In hot weather, I wear a thin sock which allows for air space around my foot keeping it from getting too clammy. Tip: if your concerned about your foot getting too hot over time, wear thin socks and don't tuck your pant legs into the boot or just wear shorts. I've worn these outside in 90+ weather and I can get by.

The top is wide enough for the foot to slip in easily. What’s more
These boots exceeded all expectations. They were designed and manufactured with a lot of integrity. The sole is very thick and will insulate well from slush and snow. The top is wide enough for the foot to slip in easily. What’s more, they look good!I had read one reviewer who wrote that the boots were thin. I expected some kind of tote-boot rubber. They are in no way thin. They are thick and substantial. Although, they are call rain boots, they are, in my opinion, perfect for snow as well.In my opinion, they are a bargain. There are rubber boot offered at $150 and $175 a pair which I have examined very carefully in stores here -- and they are not of this quality.Yes, the sizes run very large. It’s possible that a Size 10-1/2 foot could fit in Size 9 boot. I ordered Size 10 for feet that measure 10-1/2. The boots would still be too big without the industrial “steel-tipped” Dickies socks that I went out and bought -- because I liked them too much to risk that Size 9 would not fit!

I walked about 1/2 mile to get to my favorite fishing spot
I walked about 1/2 mile to get to my favorite fishing spot. These boots are comfortable to walk the round trip; cushy and soft on your hills.Inside lining is thin but helps for friction between your leg all the way down to the bottom. I ordered 1/2 size smaller. It feels ok with little room for air; that is what I wanted. I could take the boots off wriggling my leg instead of holding with my hands; that's a big plus; I am thinking of putting insole which will provide more comfort and walking strive for 2 miles. Overall, good boots; best I have had. I will order another one. One less star is for the lining; more lining for friction support would be nice.

A Valued Boot Option
This is my third pair of Baffins. The quality remains high and Amazon's price point makes each pair a value. As for fit and comfort, once I strap on a pair, I don't give these boots a second thought. My problem is not the design and feel of the boot, but the harsh environment to which it is exposed. For whatever reason, I keep wearing these boots around rebar stakes and catching the uppers on them. Obviously, it is not the fault of this Baffin product.With care, these boots should take one through many adventures.

Falls apart easier than a $15. Walmart boot. Cracked, ripped in 2 months.
These boots fit amazingly and feel excellent, even when worn 9 hours a day. However within the first month of owning (I got these in May) they began showing some rips, and this month (July, 2 months after purchase) the side of the right boot ripped right above the imprinted logo (about an inch above the sole), rendering the boots useless for any kind of work involving water. I work around/in streams and other bodies of water frequently, making rubber boots necessary. I will stick to generic rubber boots, they might not be as comfortable, but apparently they're just as durable and don't come with a premium price tag for sub premium durability.

Excellent waterproof boot
I bought these for fishing. I use them any time I have to wade into the water while loading or unloading my boat, as well as fishing from the bank in some situations. They live in the bed of my truck, which is covered, and are never inside. So, they're always outdoors but not always exposed to the elements.When wading on the boat ramp, I find these boots to have really good traction, even if there's slime or moss on it. They're high enough that I don't have to worry about waves while I work. They are a little stiff still, so walking on riprap or any other kind of large rock pile - common at boat ramps - can be challenging. Same goes for just any kind of uneven terrain. This is mostly due to the structure of the boot limiting how much you can flex your ankle. I don't yet know if that will change as I use the boots more. My opinion is that they will loosen up over time but who knows how much.I use these boots when bank fishing at the Falls of the Ohio, a spot which is sometimes called the 'most dangerous on the Ohio'. There are multiple spillways, a hydro dam, and a lock all in one place, with exposed rock shelves full of fossils, slick mud flats, all sorts of undergrowth, etc. Conditions there vary greatly and it can be a challenge to get around, what with all the driftwood and other floating junk that ends up on the banks of a river. These boots were AWESOME there. I always felt like I had good footing, even when standing in 12" of flowing water on mossy rock. They performed well on gravel, solid rock, mud-covered rock, and every single thing underwater. I never lost traction, but I was also very careful about my footing. That is no place to fall in the water. They didn't do so well in the deep river mud but what boot does? Overall, I was impressed.Construction on these is really good. They're absolutely waterproof, with a solid, thick, rubber upper portion and a sturdy sole. Whatever the material of that sole is, is perfect for these boots. It provides excellent traction and it feels like it's really durable. I have confidence that it can handle the rocks just fine. They fit me just fine, maybe a little large, but since I always wear thick socks in boots like this it's not a problem. Overall, a great waterproof boot that can handle lots of situations without breaking the bank.
