We've just had about 8 inches of snowfall here in the UK...which I took as the perfect excuse to purchase a pair of Hunters 
I'll post pics once they arrive!

So I just got the new Chanel black rain boots but they run small on my calves, I wear size 5 1/2 but I got them in size 5 because Chanel don't make them in my size and I thought 6 would be to big, they fit fine not big at all but they are small on my calves did anybody found that problem with them ????

I consider myself a fairly thin person. My foot size is a size 6/36, I'm 5'2" and 105lbs. My calves measure 13"-13.5"
HOWEVER, the chanel in size 36 was SO SMALL on the calves.... Perhaps I was a bit swollen that day from all the walking but still I thought my calves were not huge.
btw, I have a question for you all. I'm going to seattle soon and I have a BRAND NEW pair of burberry wellies I've NEVER worn because I feel silly wearing them when it's barely raining..
do you girls wear your wellies and THEN change for other shoes or just wear them all day? Or only when it's pouring rain? I'm so confused!!!
thanks!!

^ Wear them all day, I love wellies!
I have a pair of Burberry ones but I love the style of the original tall Hunter boots. Unfortunately I'm only 4'11! I'm really skinny and I'd like a tight fit around my calves so the Huntress is out of the question.
Anyone around my height have pics of them in their Hunter boots?

Hi Ladies,
Not sure if this is the correct thread to ask. I purchased some short gloss Hunter Wellies from Ebay and they arrived today. I'm worried they are fake. The inside of the boot does not have woven pattern and stamping (Property of, Telephone) on the inside of the boot. Mine are different, have different stamping.I went to the Zappos site, clicked on the black Hunter Gloss and watched the woman give her demo. Mine are different from hers as well inside. Also the small silver metal buttons that are next to the outside buckles do not have small H logo on them.
What do you think? Do I have an older version of short gloss or possible fakes? I wasn't aware of fake Hunter boots.

I am currently searching eBay for a pair of navy ones. I think they look great ! Especially with the tall socks
Hi, been wanting to buy some hunter boots in classic black, but I'm only 5 feet tall and have thin legs and I cant decide on the short or tall version. I'm afraid the tall might be too tall and the short might look too wide on the legs. Any advise; anyone here short like me and have a pair? thanks
Do an image search for "mary kate ashley hunter rain boots" & you will see photos of one of the twins wearing the tall version. Mary-Kate & Ashley are 5'1". I am also 5'1" & went for the Huntress (a tad bit shorter than the tall) since I don't have thin calves. I did try on the regular/tall version & they were okay. I probably would've bought the tall ones if it weren't for my calves.
Ok NOW i so scared after reading bout the Chanel rain boots. I just place an order and now im super scared my boots wont fit me bc of my fat calves.... Oh my goodness i will be so so heartbroken if i cant wear it! 
I have been LUSTING after these for so long and finally decided to get it...

Calvin Klein 'Ava' in Fucshia
Calvin Klein 'Ava' in Fuchsia. I'm tall, so it's awesome that they come all the way up to the knee. Perfect for trudging through several feet of snow unscathed. Very comfortable foot bed. They also come in black, navy, red, and brown.
Currently eyeing the Hunter "Watling" in Ice Blue.

Don't worry - mine fit perfectly around my calves with room to spare. I don't think these run tight (like some Hermes boots, etc.).
Good luck & hope you enjoy them! They bring a smile to my face every time it rains
