“Lighter than my gum boots, but just as waterproof. Was concerned with fit because I am short with large calves. They fit well, nice and snug with minimal foot movement within the boot. More importantly, I am still able to undo or do up the zip with minimal fuss. Just need to run a finger up the inside of the zipper to ensure the inside material does not catch. Even though I wear thick Marino Sox, with the zip undone, I can slip in and out of the boot without a fight. So far, so good. Impressed by the grip on different terrains up and done steep inclines.”
