Rated 5 out of 5 by orshopper2 Rainy climate? You need these.
No one in the Northwest should be without these. I slip them on all the time and they work in puddles and wet grass just fine. Seems as if they will last forever, made in Brazil. On first glance these look like shoes, so are ok for informal wear (brown) On second glance they are perhaps a little strange looking... I could do without the bow, but they work so well I really don't care. I wear a 7M and these are loose enough for socks, but not heavy socks without a little stretching. Low cut enough to be comfortable for high arches, took only a couple of hours to break in.

Rated 5 out of 5 by LillyinLiberty A Must-Have for New England climate
I ordered these to wear in NYC on a rainy day this spring, where I was going to be doing a lot of walking. Right out of the box they were comfortable! I was worried that wearing brand new shoes would result in rubbing or blisters after a day of walking the city but no worries! My feet are fine, even without socks. These shoes kept my feet dry and comfortable and are cute enough to wear with a skirt or dress as well as jeans. If you live where it rains a lot but is too warm for your rubber boots, you need these shoes.

The catalog description is accurate. The fit is a bit snug at first, but they have sufficient give and seem to fit my size 7B feet correctly. I haven't gotten them wet yet. I bought them for quick trips in the rain and snow from house to car to parking lots.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Shoegal56 Really cute and practical
I was going to just wear these to and from work but they were comfortable enough to wear all day. Everybody thought they were just patent leather shoes! Runs a little narrow in the bunion area. With time they will stretch. Purchased in black and navy. Really cute.

While they are really cute, the fit for me is far too narrow. I also found the material to be very stiff and uncomfortable. I do not think it would stretch much with wear at all. Unfortunately they had to be returned.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Windy1inMississippi Great!
Love, love, love these rain shoes. Have been searching for a pair ever since I lost those I had to Hurricane Katrina in '05. These are perfect in every way?not just for wet weather. Comfortable, stylish, versatile. I particularly like the arch support, which allows me to wear them for long periods of time. Very good buy. Look forward to wearing them for years. Typical Bean quality!

Love these! Very fun, engaging shoes...no breaking in required. Red w blue. You're not in Kansas anymore, was a constant comment. Great for rainy days, and sunny ones, too!

Rated 5 out of 5 by betchaken A joy to wear
These are amazing! They look great, and you don't even realize you're wearing them - that's how comfortable and supportive they are for your feet. Bought them for a vacation to the Pacific Northwest but I've already begun wearing them on a regular basis back in Upstate New York. A real winner - make more colors!

Rated 3 out of 5 by Mongoose1964 Black Leaves Scuff Marks
I love these shoes. I ordered red, brown and black. The black ones are the problem. They are the only selection that have black soles. I have light colored hardwood floors and the black shoes leave black scuff marks on the floor that are hard to remove. It rains a lot here in North Carolina, so the shoes are great all year round, easy to wipe off and keep clean.
