Good boots for a great price
I was skeptical about these boots based on some of the reviews but took a chance since I had an upcoming trip to the mountains. These boots exceeded my expectations. I did add my inserts to the boots based on the recommendations in the reviews so I did not try the boots without inserts. I wore them for almost a week in the snow, rock and ice. I played in the snow at a ski resort and went tubing with them. I visited a national park and hiked different types of terrain. My feet stayed warm and dry and I did not slip once. The boots are exactly as described and look great for a great price. Highly recommended.The boots do run a bit small. I am normally a 6.5 and I purchased a 7. They fit snug with one pair of socks but still comfortable. Also, the boots are not made of a stiff material. They feel like a cross between a boot and a rubber rain boot. They shape to your foot and are “bendy” at the ankle for lack of a better descriptive word.

You get what you’re paying for
Obviously being only 30-40 dollars, these aren’t going to be amazing, but I like the look of them and they appear to be water proof. I’m going to need to order shoe inserts because they are extremely thin. I ordered a half size up which worked well because I knew I’d wear thick socks with them.

Great shoe for the price
I got these shoes for an international trip to Norway. I heard it was rainy and wet there, and a waterproof hiking boot was a "must." I wore these shoes almost everyday and was so glad I got them. I didn't want to spend >100$ on shoes I may never wear again, so these were perfect. I wore them on multiple hikes, some of them in the rain. the grip on the bottom is great for wet rocks. I did read from some reviews that the sole of the shoe didn't have much support, which I'd agree with. I put in a heel insert and this solved the problem for me. Never had foot pain, even in 5-8km hikes. I was also worried about which size to purchase since the reviews are mixed. My foot measures 9.25" in a white sheet of paper, so I went with size 6 and it was perfect. I wore them with thick wool socks, and it was just the right size - not too tight but not too loose. If I had sized up to a 7, it would have been too big. (for reference, I wear 6.5 in nike and NB, but I think measuring your actual foot length will always give you the most accurate size gauge) Anyways, hope this review helps some other traveler out there!

Perfect for occasional wear if you don't mind primitive tailoring.
These aren't barn boots for daily use.Occasional rainy day use, quality for money makes perfect sense. I returned them and got some Rocket Dogs which last about 500 miles.

Comfy, light, water resistant, duck boots
I bought these boots to replace my old ones that I loved and damaged kicking the snow and ice while attempting to dig out my parked car after a few snow storms l, this winter. I figured these were going to be temporary, till I shopped around for a good quality and pricey one. Well, when I got these duck boots, I was happily surprised. They are light, made well, fit to size, water resistant l, and atva great price. I added an insole to it for a more personalized touch and I honestly find no need or reason to replace them. I really I'm glad I bought them. Thanks Amazon for great delivery and affortable good products.

Poor quality, do not buy
I knew I was buying off brand boots made cheaply but even then these are very poorly made. Loose stitching everywhere, parts are pinched, and pieces aren't evenly placed on either shoe. Threads are sticking out everywhere as well. Also where the soles are glued to the main part of the shoe it's an off purple color and it's also uneven, rubber sticking out all along the edge. They look bad as well as feel unsturdy like they'll fall apart quickly. I would have tried them on but I was sent a used pair so didn't because one shoe was missing an insole and the other came with a custom insert, probably from a return. And I don't blame someone for returning them, they are not worth the $40 being charged for them. So these are being returned as well. Again. I went and bought some London Fogs from elsewhere instead, which I should've done to begin with.

Love these boots!
I love these boots! At first I wasn’t sure. I typically wear between an 8.5 and 9 in shoes so I got the 9. When i first tried them on with thin socks they slid around alot and seemed too big. I was debating returning them. However, after reading reviews of others who had added shoe inserts to help with comfort and fit, I decided to try that. I am glad I did! I added foam inserts and wear thicker socks and these boots are perfect! Cute and comfy. I even wore them all day traveling! I highly recommend!
