These haven't been worn extensively yet, so I can't speak to the waterproof claim. They are very cute and easy to get on and off, after you "massage" them a bit. At first I thought they were too small, but after I fooled with the boots stiffness, they went on fine. My little one likes them and they appear substantial, as they should be for the price.

I previously purchased another set of Timberland boots, different style and they held up well.
