DRYCODE Men's Waterproof Work Boots with Steel Shank - 6mm Neoprene Insulated Anti-Slip Rubber Rain Boots (Size 5-14) - Ideal for Construction, Farming & Outdoor Winter Work

I didn’t expect much, honestly, being Chinese knockoffs of more well known (and overpriced) rubber boots. I wear about a size 12 1/2 so some shoes fit well in size 12 and others in size 13. I ordered 12’s. The fit is good, plenty of room with thick socks. Boots go on and off easily without a struggle past the narrow ankle area. They have a small loop on top to pull on and also have a “nub” on the back of the heel so you can get a toe-hold with the opposite foot when removing. They are lined inside so a sock slides in easily and I even slipped them on easily with a bare foot. I was very surprised with the comfort. Other than feeding the chickens or wearing in other muddy areas in the yard, I’ve only worn them once out hunting arrowheads on gravel bars in the creek. Multiple wading in over ankle deep water was fine, zero leaks. While roomy they don’t flop on the foot and were great on this “hunting” trip in the river which included maybe 1/2 mile of hiking the field edges bordering the river. While they wouldn’t be my choice for a 5 mile hike, they are very comfortable with a steel shank arch support and soft feel footbed. I like that the rubber portion extends above the ankle protecting the neoprene from wear at that point. The neoprene tops can be rolled down to expose the blaze orange interior lining.So take this one day test for what it’s worth, just a one day sample. I bought these specifically for hunting gravel bars and when it’s mucky and wet, so if there is a need, I will come back and update.
