These fit well, are easy to get on and off, and I love the shiny black color I ordered. I can’t wait for it to rain!
Very happy . Comfortable
These are real Hunter Boots. They came in perfect condition in the box. I got the shiny red boots and I love them. I usually wear a 7.5 but I ordered a 7 in these boots and they fit great. They shipped and delivered quickly. I am super happy with the price I paid as well
Very nice boot happy with purchase
The boots are very nice and beautiful. I wear a size 8 med in most footwear. My daughter-in-law owns a pair and we wear the same size so I tried on her boots with thick socks. They felt comfortable so I ordered my normal size (8 US size) though I read many reviews that mentioned size running bigger. When boots arrived I put on with thick socks and immediately questioned myself if I should have sized down :(. I walked around the house with boots on, hoping I would feel differently. The other issue I have is that my calves, though not fat, they are more muscular causing me not to wear higher boots. Thought I could get away with mid/low calve boot. I should say the boots are NOT tight in the calve area and I could fit two fingers space in this area at calve area, however, for me it was too close for comfort. So I knew I would not be comfortable sizing down to a 7. So I returned.
I love these boots. These are my first pair of hunter boots and I am so excited. I am very impressed by the quality! The grip is great. They look great.I am normally a US size 6.5 to 7 in women's shoes (EUR 36 - 37). I sized down to a US size 6 in these boots. The fit is perfect when you account wiggle room and some space for warm socks. I strongly suggest measuring your feet exactly as per Hunter official site's guide and you can't go wrong. I could have done better with a size 5.5 but too bad I couldn't find half size in these boots. But that's okay, because this gives me the option to wear thick socks or extra fur soles. I could really use that.The only things that bother me are the buckles. They are the only reason I deducted a star. I am not impressed with the quality of the buckles I think they are made of quite flimsy material (probably just plastic) and I really hope that they hold on for as long as the rest of these boots do.Overall, a good purchase.
Great rain boots. They fit perfect and are very comfy. Light weight, thus good for walking. The wide shaft is awesome as it‘s adjustable.
First of all they are real, so no scam here, they are sending everything including the certificate and the red is not so bright red red color it’s cherry but shiny not so long, I am 5,5 and people are like it’s make you look taller
