After a long search I'm glad I settled on these. They are warm so you wouldn't want to wear them all day just to and from where your going, come up just below the knee (I'm 5'3" & don't have particularly large or small calves) fit true to size purchased size 8 (I'm 7 1/2 -8),bought the black comes w/ 2 pairs of ribbons using the  black and blue polkadot ones now - adorable. They are large enough to wear sox, need to push them off with the other foot but thats ok as no water or cold can get inside. After purchase discovered they come w/a lifetime guarantee from Bogs although if that guarantee applies only when you buy directly from Bogs.com or when you buy from Amazon I don't know. Now I'm ready for next freezing gold slushy snowy puddles that line B'way at the curb cuts every time it storms. They can be up to 3' around and 5 inches deep w/ ucky black ick from the road, gas film etc. Problem solved!
