I love these Merrell's. This is my second pair so I have a spare. I will admit they finally did leak recently...albeit I was drenched in mud and rain working outside doing my very glamorous job.... Merrell said they would possibly replace them so I might send the leaky ones back and they'll give me a new pair (hopefully). They are so cute and I get compliments on them ALL the time. I even wear them when it's not raining! No one can believe they are rain boots. Merrell has an updated version called Captiva Launch which look exactly the same but cost $175 so I bought these again here on Amazon for less $$. That's why we love Amazon!!
