These boots seemed at first to do the job fairly well of keeping my feet dry and comfortable. But after only a few weeks of wear I noticed that my feet were getting wet inside the boot. Upon inspection I noticed that areas on the sole of each boot had worn completely through and were leaking moisture. To be completely fair, I work in newspaper delivery and get in and out of my car 150+ times per night, but to have boots last only about a month even with heavy use is unacceptable. The soles are much thinner than they appear to be and wear through very quickly. So unless you plan to use these boots only on rare occasions, I would avoid them. They have no durability.

I still love these boots and they are the best I tried on; they fit well and are super cute. But somehow my socks are a little damp in wearing these; I can't exactly figure out how the water is getting in near the tops of the toes. The ankle area of the boots fit snug, in a good way, and are usually under my pants anyway; so i'm not sure how my toes/tops of my socks are getting a little damp. But I mention it in case it helps others. I honestly don't know where to find good, solid, comfy, lightweight rain boots... I would still recommend these, I just don't know why my socks are damp Lol

Love this rain boot! Been looking for something like this for a while. When I say true to size, I mean, without socks (barefoot), it's just a little loose fitting, but with socks, perfect! Hugs your foot!

I am very happy with these rain boots! They have extra room in the toe box which is exactly what I need, especially in rubber boots that do not stretch to fit your foot. So much more comfortable that any of my previous rain boots! The black and white contrast is also nicely funky and the boots are cute on.

Even with wool socks these felt loose. I’m a 7.5-8. More importantly NOT WATERPROOF!! I wear them to work, I work in a lab, I walk 1 block from my car in the rain and they started leaking immediately. I’d give them another star just because they are so cute, but a rain boot that isn’t water proof like a car that won’t turn on. What’s the point??? Also the bottoms are super thin and my feet hurt after a day of use. Go with hunters or another brand.

These are adorable! Rain boots often have a sort of weird shape on, but these are very cute and I think as flattering as it's possible for a rubber boot to be on my size 10 feet. I got the green/yellow, and the colors are nice and can go with black, navy, etc. -- very versatile. There's no arch support to speak of (the soles are flexible rubber, and I don't think there's a steel shank or anything), but on the flip side I'm not planning to do any major hiking; for going from my commuter train to subway to a short walk, these seem like they'll hit the mark, and they're delightfully less expensive than some of the similarly styled items out there.

I typically wear a wide width, and these shoes are wide enough for me. They're pretty snug around the ankles but not enough to make we wan to return them. I would not want to wear these all day because of their weight, but they are fine for what I need them for.

This is the second pair of Rocket Dog rain boots I bought and the second pair I have to return. I bought these in January and have worn them less than 10 times and they leak! My left foot was swimming in the puddle in my shoe! I DO NOT recommend Rocket Dog for rain boots because they are not made very well. They are super cute, but only made for a run to the store or a mall outing. Not made for the actual elements or longevity.

I loved these.... however, I only bought them in April, and while I have worn them a lot, it seems a bit soon for the heel to have gaping holes in it. So bummed. Buyer beware!

These boots really fit the bill for me at the design and price points. I have always been happy with rocket Dogs shoes and I am glad that I found these. I am a 9 1/2 and I ordered a size 10 and they fit fine. I have been wearing them around in melting snow and ice, mud puddles, and general muck and my feet have stayed dry. I have also been wearing them on concrete as the melt winds down. all the while my feet have been comfortable, no blisters or aches. There is not much arch support at all and there is wiggle room to add some in.
I like that the boot seems to fit tighter around the ankle, keeping mud and water out better. The rubber shaft goes all the way around the shin, even behind the elastic, which again is nice to keep water out. I tried to take a picture of that.
I really like the design of the toe box. I did not realize that it was a broader rounded toe until I opened the box. This design is more flattering with my body and wardrobe than a pointed or boxy toe, so that was a nice bonus.
I have also stayed upright on ice patches, which is nice because they are not designed to be ice grippers but they do ok.

This rainboot is just what I wanted to be able to take my dog out on rainy days. It is for warmer weather as there is no insulation. The fit is good and true to size. Just woulen't wear it for any long walks.

The boots fit true to size and are very comfortable. The only problem I had was trying to put them on. It was difficult for me. I needed to sit down and use a shoe horn. Otherwise, they are great.

I have size 10 slightly wide feet, and these were still very wide on me. Slightly long, but not enough to warrant sizing down. No arch support.
I'll add inserts and wear thick socks. I needed something quick to slip on to walk the dogs or run out for errands on a rainy day. These were inexpensive and will do the job. They aren't amazing, but are good enough to not bother sending back and needing to look for an alternative.

Pulled them out of the box, and immediately put them on and gave them a test run in the pouring rain! Just what I needed. I bought them a half size larger and felt like it was a good call for fit and comfort especially with a thicker sock.

The boots themselves are super cute and I've got a lot of compliments on them. They're very comfortable and I have hard time finding shoes that are. The disappointment lies in the fact that I bought them 5 months ago and they already have two holes that leak and make my feet wet. So for that reason I wouldn't buy them.

So I got these rain boots in an 8.5 and am REAL happy! They have some space - not a 1/2 size larger but bigger. Perfect for thicker socks in the PNW weather! The toe is wide which is so good for my aging feet! They're comfy & stylish for this almost 61 year old gal. They don't hurt when I go on 1-2 mile walks with our dog. The top can rub a little where it hits but hasn't bothered me much. I like them!

I love the fit, which is perfect for my slightly wide feet. They're sporty and trim, and a fabulous value. I'll be swapping out the insoles for something with a little more arch support.

One of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I’ve ever put on my feet. They’re super flexible and move with your foot, not stiff like other rain booties. So comfy, all my toes have room to move!

These boots are very comfortable and they look nice. They have a thick rubber sole but are not heavy. The toes come up a bit. The navy is nice dark blue but does not look black like the picture. Pretty easy to take on and off. They are a bit wide for my foot so I sent them back for this reason. The width looks sort of like a croc. My regular to narrow feet were swimming in it. I really like these boots, very nice looking.

I obviously bought these for when it rains, and they work really well. I like that there is plenty of wiggle room for your toes (round toe) and there is a snug fit on the ankles. Great purchase!
