I wanted rain boots which were fashionable and comfortable and I think these fit the bill perfectly.  I ordered a 1/2 size larger and I'm glad I did, because the boots feel snug but not tight.  The are high enough so my pants don't get wet or muddied when splashed by passing traffic.  Best of all, they don't weigh me down.  You can buy cheaper rain boots, but I think these are worth the price.
