The rain boots arrived one day early and was packaged well. The color is bright and correct. The rim the the boots around the ankle is very big and flimsy but the inside of the boot at the heel has minimal slippage. There is no arch support but there is room for my orthotics. The tread is deep and should be nice on pavement and walking across grass areas for great traction. I wear a 7 1/2 and ordered the 8 and so glad I did so that thick socks and my orthotic fit nicely. Overall this boot is made sturdy and should last a long time. I definitely recommend.
