What customers say:
The L.L. Bean Duck Boots are praised for their excellent craftsmanship, durability, and ability to keep feet dry in wet or rainy conditions. However, sizing can be tricky, with some customers needing to order a size down from their normal shoe size. Additionally, the included shoelaces are reported to be too short, requiring customers to purchase replacement laces. While the boots are generally well-suited for wet weather, some customers wish they were available in more color options beyond the standard blue.

Overall disappointed in the quality

The tongue of the boot is too short, and tends to disappear into the shoe when I put it on. The shoelaces supplied were too short, so I had to purchase a longer pair. The shoe do

Nice boots - sized down for a perfect fit . . .

I can’t stand walking around in wet shoes. These are perfect for a rainy day and very comfortable if you are on your feet a lot.

Well made rain boots
Well made boots. But seams slightly irritated my foot. Maybe with thicker socks this wouldn’t be an issue.

I find these shoes to be quite comfortable. Not like cushy running shoes, but still fine. As LLBean says, they run large, so be sure to follow their advice on size. Since they d
