Oh, where have these delightful dandelion dreamboats been all my life? These DKSUKO tall rain boots in “Bright Yellow” are, quite frankly, the cheeriest pair of puddle-stompers a lady could ever slide her feet into.Let’s begin with the colour—it’s not just yellow, darling. It’s mood-lifting, sunshine-on-a-grey-day, Paddington-Bear-approved brilliance. I wore them out during a dreary drizzle and was promptly mistaken for a walking ray of hope by two passersby and one rather confused golden retriever.Comfort-wise, they’re splendid. Not the slightest hint of pinching or clunky dragging, which is rather a feat for wellies. The sole has enough grip to navigate slippery sidewalks, muddy gardens, or an impromptu sprint across a wet carpark after your dog decides he’s chasing a squirrel (true story, thank you Nugget).Waterproof? Naturally. My socks remained bone-dry despite wading through a minor urban lake that had once been the Whole Foods parking lot. And the charming buckle detail gives them just the right flair—like a bowtie on a particularly dashing gentleman farmer.In conclusion: Practical, radiant, and just the thing to make a rainy day feel like a jolly good time. Buy them. Wear them. Be glorious. Five stars, and I’d give a sixth if I could.

Three-Year Update
I’m in my third year of maintaining several wild-bird feeder posts and had not realized that all of my twice-daily walking among them had cleared away most of the original grass that had grown there earlier. Somehow I must have intuitively known that I might need a pair of rain boots this year because I ordered my pair of DKSUKO Women’s Rain Boots before the end of November just before several periods of multi-day nonstop rains began. Never had I expected to see such deep amounts of standing water and mud around the feeding area, especially in front of the table where I place all the containers of birdseeds for the daily renewals of the feeders. These boots have saved me this year!I usually wear a size 7-1/2 M shoe so I ordered a size 8 of these boots. I have such high arches (pes cavus) that I have to be careful buying any boots at all, but my feet slid right on into these and stayed there snugly. I absolutely love them! They feel terrific on my feet and legs, and it’s such a joy to be outside, sometimes in the pouring-down rain, knowing that I’m covered by these lovely shiny boots almost to my knees. I’m 5’7” tall and have long legs that prevent these from being knee high for me. My boots end at least 3” before my knee. After I’ve tended to all the feeders, I empty and refill six birdbaths, four of which are on a paved area. Yesterday I stepped into one area of mud into which the majority of my left foot sank. I was even more thankful for my month-old boots then! It’s incidents such as this, though, which leave mud trapped between the bottom treads of the boots, so, before I go up to the paved area and mess that up, I set the garden hose sprayer to “Jet” and go about dislodging the trapped mud on the soles of the boots. My gratitude, again, for the design of these because, yes, while I may accidentally spray ricocheted water onto my dress or gown, the water never goes down my boots. (Casual dresses/gowns due to a spinal injury.) I’m still very excited to have them because they are so much needed here. We’ve had two or three rain-free days but the mud and water have yet to dry up, and I believe rain is also forecast for the next couple of days — but I’m as well-prepared for it as I could be! I so very highly recommend DKSUKO’s Wellington Boots — especially to birders who, like me, never gave a moment’s thought to the necessity of regularly reseeding a highly-trod area of their lawn.UPDATE, 11-21-22, @ 3-year Review: I just recently bought a new pair of these rain boots, same color, same size — not because I necessarily needed a new pair but because I wanted a new pair “just in case.” The first pair of rain boots is still in use, its only “flaws” being that (1) the sole top pad inside has come loose from a lot of sliding in and out by my foot or perhaps some dampness inside at one point (I just put the sole back into place) and (2) I’ve let up on my daily showering off my boots, so they’re a touch mud-streaked now.These rain boots have not failed me once since I bought them. My feet still slide into them effortlessly. The fit could not be better. The height is good. I’ve walked over some questionable surfaces, but the boots have withstood it all without piercing. How can one not highly recommend an outdoor shoe, used at least once daily for three years in sunshine, rain, mud, and snow, without a single “serious” flaw? These are more reliable than any footwear I’ve ever owned, and, wow, do I ever highly recommend them!

Adorable
I have really big calves and most boots don’t fit over my calves. The barely do. It isn’t uncomfortable. I’ve received a bunch of compliments on them. They are cute. I’m glad I went with the matte. I wear a size 7 us women’s shoe and purchased the 7. Fits wonderful. There is a smell to them. I read that in the reviews and it is true. I haven’t tried anything to get rid of it yet. I would recommend these boots. You can see how tight they are. The jeans in the photo are skinny jeans.

Great boots
They fit well with socks. A bit big in the calf area but otherwise they are very comfortable. Easy off and on and great in the rain…waterproof 👍🏻👍🏻

Good Boots But Super Stinky
Ordered these rain boots to muck around in the garden. The boots themselves are good quality, fit as expected, and totally comfortable, even cute; however, the smell! Gees. I had to put them outside to air out. I hope the smell goes away so I don't have to leave them in the garage. Otherwise, a definite recommend.

Love them BUT really CHEAP insoles! You'll need to buy better replacements
I wear 8.5/EU 39 in normal shoes but I prefer a size 9 in rain boots for the extra length in the toe box. Even without socks, the width seems narrow but since I sized up, it's perfect. My heels don't slip off. My calf is 14.5" and fits the boot perfectly--flush enough to not show gaps but not so tight it's suctioned against my skin. To me, the boot height description "Tall" implies "to the knee," but it's not like that. It hits several inches under the knee but over the calf muscle, just like pictured on the models. I keep getting bark stuck in the treads but it's been very easy washing off the debris using the outside faucet. I bought "Bright White" so I can see the ants crawling up my boot. The boots stand up on its own. Due to the material, if you touch the boots together, they will stick and you have to peel them away. My only complaint are the cheap, removable insoles. They measure 10-1/8 inch long and although brand new, they arrived already curled up and shifting in the boots. It was necessary to buy better insole replacements (I recommend Pedag leather insoles, size Womens 40 for this Rain Boot 9) but despite the extra costs, I'm pretty happy with my new rain boots.
