got these just in time!! Boots were great until the kids played for a long time in the snow. We were in a winter park and these don't do good when exposed to puddles of water. Some of the snow was melting at the bottom of the hill so we had to walk through the puddles to go back up the hill, when we got to the car, my 4yr old son complained that his feet were cold. I took off the boot and realized his sock was completely soaked! We got to the hotel and i had to dry the boots with the blow dryer so we could use them the following day. Even though that happened, I am giving the boots 4 stars because they worked well with the snow...but they are not completely waterproof.
