The shoes are well made. Unfortunately for me the D width was too narrow and the EE was too wide. Not a fault of the shoe.

Best thing ever. I own the tall boots and needed something to slip on and off quickly to bring my two puppies outside quickly. Just perfect. Fit is great and very comfortable.

The current purchase is a replacement for the L.L. Bean Tex 2.5 which is no longer available. The Tex 2.5 were slip-on gumshoes with no tongue. They were more convenient, comfortable and did not let your feet get wet when you are in water that is near the top of the boot. The new L.L.Bean Boots, Gumshoe has a tongue that allows water to get in around the tongue. The tongue also inconveniently folds into the shoe when putting them on. If the tongue were longer and made of heavier leather, this most likely would not be a problem.
I would recommend the boots to friends but would ask them to read my comments.

I needed a pair of water proof boots for work. I looked around and could not find any that felt good on my feet and have the arch support I need for my back. A couple months ago, my wife found these on L.L. Bean and I sent for a pair. I usually take a 12 E, but the 12 D width fit better. Very good workmanship, very comfortable, looks great. I am 6'3", 275# and can be hard on footwear. I did not want insulated boots. Some days I work in the office and many days out in fields in all types of weather. I have been wearing the first pair ever since they came. These boots keep my feet dry, heel does not slip, has good traction. When you find great fitting footwear, best to get a second pair. That is what I did recently and I am set for a couple years.

I needed a good pair of waterproof boots for my daily chores. These boots fit the bill. I do think the cut is a bit on the large size and the tongue slips a bit but nothing serious. I would recommend them for outdoor work where the environment is wet.

Should have purchase this a long time ago. Ideal for working in the garden and around the yard. I order the right size which was suggested one size down of my fit.

JIvar Love my gumshoes!
Got my gumshoes April 6th, manufacture date on tongue says 032213. These are some fresh shoes. Added shearling insole, and they fit and feel perfect. I followed the LL Bean fit recommendations in that I normally wear a 10, so I ordered 9's, and with the insoles they are an exact fit. These will be by go-to shoes for the Alaskan spring season.

Great outdoor boot for all the tramping around we do with our dogs in the fields. The only issue we had was that my husband is generally closer to a 9.5 size, and we ordered up to the 10 and he was swimming in these, so his wear was delayed due to making an exchange for the 9. If it is possible, perhaps they can provide this guidance in the purchasing info about the suggestions for 1/2 sizing.
Otherwise, the construction of the boot/shoe is solid and we know with LLBean reputation these will last for years to come! Thanks

I wear these almost daily. I have had several pairs over the years because they are so comfortable and handy.
