I just bought Burberry rain boots and they were $180. They haven't been delivered yet, otherwise I would post pics. Does anyone know how these run? I wear a size 8 so I figured a 38 would be the safest bet....I hope they fit.
 
i've always wanted a pair to wear during the rain caus eit rains so much here! i want a pair with a funky print... really like the cupcakes one~!!! so cute... too bad theres no target here. but always i find them kind of uncomrtable when i tried some one... it was very hard and especially the longer ones... its kind of heavy and hard to walk in... i see someone people in the hunter ones around here... but the black and green ones look like fishing boots.

I am normally an 8 and I think they fit true to size. The ones I bought were a tid bit shorter than the ones you bought, but I don't think you will be able to tuck your jeans in your boots. I was told if you want to do that with longer boots you would need to go up an size. I really like the boots you ordered. I was going to buy those because I love the horseman, but I saw the candy check first at the outlet. I think you have more options with what you wear with yours!
 
I wanna get these Burberry boots:

Only problem is I don't know if they would fit over my jeans.

If you can try them on in the store with a pair of jeans. I was told the smaller shaft would not fit over jeans at your true size and that you would need to go up a size. If you go to the Burberry forum and search rainboots, there are some threads talking about their sizing. Cute rainboots. I love the horseman.
 
I thought Keri Russell looked adorable in this pic.

they're HUGE!!! i'm usually a us sz 9, so i got a uk size 7... and they were still SWIMMING on me, so now i'm gonna have to return them :push:.
i went to the store and tried on a pair of UK 6 too, and they were still pretty huge... so u do the math! :yes: should definitely size down!

That's because you got your size conversions all wrong. I'm a US 9 which is a UK 6 and you need to go one size down which would mean you should have bought a UK 5 :smile1:
 
I have two pairs of Wellies, both from JCrew and they are absolute lifesavers. I got the plaid pair last year b/c whenever it rained my undergrad campus would become a giant puddle and got the pink ones this year when I went to Grad school seems it seems to rain/snow here almost daily. I generally wear them with skirts or dresses b/c they are a bit hard to fit over jeans smoothly.

hunters are trendy now and of course angelina made them look sexy. i think they are very reasonably priced. i just wonder if they are comfy? the rubber soles seem uncomfortable.

I have a pair of Hunters in aubergine that I love! They are, by far, the most comfy wellies that I have ever owned. I typically have to walk 5 long blocks from the Metro to work, and the soles are very flexible and I think the cushioning is great. I've owned Tamara Henrique and Ferragamo rain boots (I think some posted them earlier), and time and time again, I grab the Hunters.
