These are the most adorable boots I've ever owned. I bought them in the Comic book print. I live in South Florida where it rains during rainy season ALL THE TIME. There are flooded parking lots everywhere that you may have to walk through at work, the mall, movie theater, etc., many times I am the only person that can get in my car while a crowd of people stand around wondering how to get in their cars without getting soaked up to their shins with water. These boots are super comfortable and everyone always stares at them and ask me where I got them. They make me feel like a kid again while I kick and run through rain puddles without getting wet. The great thing I love about them is that I have never and I'm sure will never see anyone else with these boots because they're not in stores here. They have a very thick and sturdy bottom that make me feel safe walking around in murky water that I can't see through to the bottom, I don't have to worry about what I'm stepping on. The top is nice and loose so that jeans that are looser than skinny jeans can still fit inside the boot. I'm a flat footed size 7 1/2-8 and the size 8 fit perfectly and my foot didn't slide around, but I could still double up on socks if I wanted to. It's also in the 80's and 90's here during rainy season and my feet didn't feel unreasonably warm in them. However, in warm weather I always bring an extra pair of shoes in case the rain stops and its too hot to wear these boots. I've also worn them with shorts during the rain and my leg did not get sweaty.
