Ok, these are fabulous! I've been searching for adult rain boots for ages that actually look adult. I didn't want polka dots, flowers, or dog bones on mine. However, I do love bold colors and statement pieces. These satisfy both criteria for me. I bought the fisherman-yellow ones because the bright pink weren't in my size, and I love them. They match the color shown exactly, and the black trim accents the bright yellow sharply. As others have mentioned, I recommend ordering a size above your normal. I'm a half size, and I ordered the next size up vs. next size down, and they fit exactly right.

They are not quite opaque, which is one reason I detracted a star. I have a variety of wonky socks (I guess if you have a bold personal style, people assume you want outrageous socks as gifts), and I don't always bother to match them. Under these boots, I have to either match them or wear solid colored ones. However, I can live with this just fine considering the quality, comfort, and the fact that the company will recycle the boots once I can no longer use them.

One caveat: if you have large calves or typically need more room in your boots than the "average" fit, these probably won't be for you. I have slender legs, but not thin ones by any stretch. These boots are a perfect fit--and by perfect, I mean that if I tried to tuck anything but the skinniest pair of jeans in them, they'd be too snug. I use them for walking my dog in the rain and snow, and I typically tuck leggings in them, so this is not an issue for me. It's another reason I detracted that star, though. This issue, combined with the lack of opaqueness, made these boots fall *just* short of perfection for me. However, I am very pleased with my purchase, don't regret my choice at all, and feel comfortable recommending this to others.
