Great garden and light work shoes
We don't wear street shoes in our house so we always have a collection of various clogs and flops and whatever at each of our three doors so we have something to quickly slip on for work around the house, getting mail and so on.A couple of years ago I bought what my Wife calls "Cheap Chinese Clogs" (CCCs)These are flashy silver things which were the cheapest clogs I could find on Amazon. Worked fantastic but looked pretty dorky. I wear them shopping every now and then just to freak out my neighbors.But I decided to upgrade when my CCCs started to leak through the soles. I still use them but not in wet weather which we have had a lot of lately. So I bought these waterproof ones and they are great. Still a bit dorky with the red soles but I have gotten used to being a dork so that's OK.Anyway, The shoes are well built as far as I can tell and look like they should be pretty durable. I did take advice from reviews and went a half size over (9.5 vs 9) and they are fine although I could easily have gone with a 9. Sizing seems pretty accurate.One minor negative is the soft ankle surround, although very comfortable, it does allow for some heel movement while walking. These are not "long walk" shoes or hikers, you will develop a hotspot on your heel if you go for a long walk in these. But that is no big deal, I have worked all day in them perfectly comfortably just don't try to set out on a five mile walk in them,The neoprene and rubber uppers also keep your foot nice and cozy with socks on. In summer they might be a bit too toasty, we shall see.Oh, they are also very grippy even on my boat so that is another plus.Overall very happy with this purchase. I would recommend them.

I work in a greenhouse on a farm
So far, so good. I like these gardening shoes. I work in a greenhouse on a farm. We have fields here too. After a month of real world work, I'm satisfied with my purchase. I've even bragged on them and gotten some complements from other farm hands. The most notable quality to brag about is that these shoes will stick to the ground like glue. The tread is great and really grips when walking in wet and muddy environments. That's what impressed me most about these shoes. This review is a bit early, but I'll come back with an update once this year's season finishes and let y'all know how they did. One IMPORTANT thing I will say, that I read on other reviews before making my purchase, is that they tend to fit on the smaller side. I ordered them one size up from shoes I'd typically buy in regular tennis shoes. I'm glad that I did. They fit just right after I ordered them a size larger than what I wear in normal shoes. Other than that, the stock insoles aren't too comfy. They don't hurt my feet, but it's no Cadillac either. I glued in some nice aftermarket insoles and they've been a joy to wear ever since. Yes, they are water resistant, but I wouldn't go wading in these things. They'd be fine, but your insoles would get soaked, and that would ruin your day. I still plan on using Crocs for the real wet work. That said, these are great for greenhouse and gardening. If you wanna do field work, insole upgrades are a must have. If you plan on being ankle deep in water, get some Crocs. I'll update again at the end of our season.

Great for yard work
Because of people’s reviews I took a gamble and got these in a size too big. After putting in an insole for arch support that I need they fit perfect. Sturdy and comfortable. I bought cheap shoes months ago as I figured they’d get lots of abuse in my yard work and it wasn’t worth spending much. They were not good or comfortable. For a few more bucks these shoes are so much better. They feel like they will definitely last

Lots of bang for the buck
These are my everyday work shoes. Very comfortable and have great traction. Easy to put on and waterproof. Will purchase again.

Accurately Sized, Better looking than expected
I needed a pair of shoes to wear while working outside in the yard. I used to wear sandals as I didn't expect to be doing much in the backyard other than dragging a hose around to water my vegetable plants. This spring and summer I plan on having a larger vegetable garden and I absolutely can't stand dirt between my toes and wet feet in shoes. Then I saw a FB post where a friend had stitches on her foot because she dropped a pair of clippers while trimming plants and it landed blade down on her foot and she was wearing sandals. I went in search of a pair of waterproof shoes I can wear in the garden. I didn't want to spend a lot and I didn't want a pair of rain boots either, they are too tall and gappy and would let water and dirt in and I think people look like idiots when they wear shorts and rain boots, plus rain boots are expensive. I looked at at least 20 versions of rain/garden shoes and read so many reviews, I ended up going with these and it was still a gamble as to if these would work for me. I chose the ankle version that comes up just a little bit higher on the ankle. I love them. They fit perfect, I wear a 6.5 womens, I bought that size and they fit great even with socks. I do advise wearing socks because they do not breathe at all and your feet will sweat. The ankle part is neoprene like wetsuit material, it is flexible and snug but not tight, it will keep dirt from getting into the shoe. The rubber material is flexible, but protective enough that my toes are safe from falling tools, the sole is thick but not too stiff, it moves with your step. I also love the way they look, I would consider wearing these out in public. If I saw these on someone out in public, I'd probably ask them where they bought them, they look that decent and cool looking for being a waterproof shoe. The only downside, if you want to call it that, is that taking them off is harder than putting them on which is easy, my foot slides into the shoe with ease, removing them requires more pulling my foot out while gripping the shoe, and it makes the insole fold up and start sliding, if they had glued the insole down it would stop this but then you wouldn't be able to replace it when or if you needed/wanted to, I will probably replace the insoles at some point because these shoes will outlast the insole, I'm sure of it. I don't think you can go wrong with the cost and look of this shoe.

Very Nice for the Price
I live in a rainy climate so these were excellent slip-ons for going out into the yard. Waterproof and they slip on very easy. Love em.

Excellent
Kept my feet dry after several hours working on a golf course. So completely happy. Also a lot easier to slip on than some are saying. As recommended I bought the 11.5 size for my usual size 11 and the fit was perfect. I can see eventually putting an insert in as they don't help with my pronation. But otherwise a great shoe.

Good shoes tight fit
These are nice shoes that are comfortable and protect my feet from water but they are difficult to get on.Would be very difficult for someone with flexibility issues to get them on, but otherwise I like them.

Good garden boots.
These boots are very comfortable. The neoprene linings keeps them from chafing my ankles. I do wish I had bought them in a half size larger but I inserted heal wedges and that keeps my toes from hitting the end of the boot. I tried other boots to replace the ones I had that were so comfortable but cracked with age and were no longer available. These were the only ones that came close. So glad I found them.

Great boots but really hard to get on.
These boots look and fit as expected. The ones I got were actually a little too big for me but I found it really hard to get them on. I've got high arches - not sure if that makes a difference. But it was difficult/time consuming enough to get them on that I decided to return them.

Great value
Comfortable fit. Priced far below other brands and while I have not tried the expensive ones I doubt they would be any more comfortable. They are narrow so you might want to order one size up
