My 9yr old(with HUGE feet-size 8mens) received these as a Christmas gift, he loves them!

He loves that they are easy on/off, he says they are super comfortable(he won't wear ANYTHING that isn't comfortable). I  ordered him a size 9-1/2 because previous reviews mentioned that they ran small-they do. They look a little like he is wearing "daddy's boots," but that is what happens when your feet grow faster than the rest of you(my 12yr old daughter wears an 11 in womens, so it runs in the family even though both of their feet have outgrown mine).

They clean up nicely(we live on 111ac in the country so they have had plenty of opportunity to get dirty and be cleaned), they seem to keep his feet dry in "muck"(not sure about water, we haven't had many puddles since purchase), and they look nice enough to wear out when they are cleaned up.

Great boots, highly recommended!

His review: I don't just love them, I super-duper love them. I rank them a 10 out of 5. So I guess he likes them ;-)
