Detailed Review
When it comes to rain boots, the HUNTER Women's Wellington Boots stand out due to their craftsmanship and thoughtful design. The incorporation of 28 individual parts in the manufacturing process ensures that each pair is not only aesthetically pleasing but also highly functional. You will appreciate the attention to detail when you slip into these boots, as they provide a snug yet comfortable fit.
The calf-height design (24cm) is a key feature that differentiates these from the traditional tall boots. While some may prefer the additional height for full protection against puddles, the shorter length offers versatility and ease of use. Whether you're navigating city streets or enjoying a day outdoors, these boots will keep your feet dry and stylish.
However, their fashion-forward appeal does come with some compromises. For those who require a wider fit, the boots may feel a bit snug, particularly around the midfoot. Additionally, while they are well-suited for wet conditions, the lack of insulation may limit their use during colder months.

User Reviews
I searched for a week to find a pair ofHunter rain boots that were marked down. I always loved how Hunter boot looked, but I was hesitant to spend the money.When I received the boots, they were in a generic boot box. Brand new, no signs of wear.I bought size 10 based on reviews, I usually wear 10.5-11. I was hesitant to size down, I’ve done it before based on reviews and ended up returning for A bigger size. The size 10s fit perfectly, just enough extra room for a slight bit of wiggle room. They are comfortable enough to walk through the zoo the second time that I wore them.Only negative is that The buckle thing on the side is weird. It doesn’t easily lay flat but it’s not obviously weird looking either.TL;DR they might actually be worth the cost
These are the classic Hunter short (midcalf) boots, with the thickened area around the front of the ankle where it has to bend a lot. I have other pairs I bought elsewhere, and was wearing one out, so I bought these. I wish they had been the right size; they were beautiful, excellent boots with a quality sole. They are just too loose; when UK sizing is converted to US, it doesn’t always line up! I downsized to a 9 from the 10 I had ordered, and now they’re perfect… I use mine roughly, like they were intended, doing all my garden and landscape work in them. They’re super comfortable and fit me even with a pair of reinforced cotton socks; my usual US size is 9.5, so they do run a touch big if you’re between sizes. I can work in these for hours without any discomfort.
The boots were comfortable
Say no more. Great boots. Great seller.
Just switched to these shorter rain boots. First time purchasing Hunters. I love the look, but I feel they run narrow. I wear size 7.5 and ordered a 7 which fits. No arch support like most rain boots. I typically wear a thick sock for cushion and to keep feet warm.
These boots fit well in my usual size and are softer than expected. They have no arch support, so I would suggest buying some orthotics to put in them. I walked through puddles and they did not leak. They look cool.
I'm a very true size 7.5 and after reading all the reviews, which stated that these boots run big, I went with the size 7 and I'm so glad I did !!! They fit me PERFECTLY! With these size 7 boots, I CANNOT feel the end of the boot with my big toe. In other words, my big toe is not touching the front tip/edge of the boot at all. I can criss-cross my toes and still have plenty of wiggle room. I HATE it if my toes feel constricted and mashed together (weird, I know). I wear my regular Adidas socks with them and if I had sized up to a size 8, I would have had WAY too much room at the toe. That being said, when I wear these with my thick boot socks for cold weather, they are much more snug and my toes aren't really comfortable. I can honestly tell you that if I needed these for super cold weather, and mostly intended to wear super thick socks with these, I would have gone up to an 8. My intent is to have these for Spring and Fall rainy seasons and also during Summer when I'm working in the garden. So if you're like me and your foot is half sized, and you plan to wear your regular everyday socks with these, the same ones you would normally wear with your tennis shoes, then make sure you size DOWN to the next whole size. Side note** I am also about 80 lbs. overweight right now and had previously purchased the higher riding boot style from Hunter which proceeded to STRANGLE my calves. I had to return them. So I purchased these and they in no way constrict my calves AT ALL. Lots of room at the top! They are suuuuper cute too!
Stylish and comfortable rain boot.
