These are the absolute best garden shoes I've ever had - truly comfortable to wear and your feet stay dry all day long. Absolutely love the elasticized trim. In addition to keeping out dirt, stones, mulch and the usual detritus that used to work its way into my shoes, it greatly adds to the overall comfort.

You can tell that a lot of thought went into these shoes. Even the tread pattern works well - it provides good grip in mud or on wet grass, but does not allow the mud and dirt to cake up like "waffle" tread shoes do. Yes, some mud will stick to the bottom after you slog through the muck but just let it dry, then bang the shoes together the next day and they are clean and ready to go.

Very easy to slip on. With some practice, you can slip it on without using your hands - gives you the benefits of a shoe but the easy slip-on nature of a clog.

Runs a bit large. I wear a mens size 11 that fits fine in a sneaker or regular shoe. The Muck Boot size 11 was a wee bit large - 10 ½ would have probably been perfect, but they don't sell half sizes. It does not distract from comfort, but if you normally wear a half size, you probably would want to order the next size down. On the other hand, the greater roominess allows me to wear heavy socks without any problem.

If you garden, you gotta get these. I'd give up my Felco pruner or my Hori Hori knife before I would give up these! (Well, maybe not, but it would be a thinker as to which is more valuable.)

I have had two pairs of these MuckBoots garden shoes and absolutely loved them. But both pairs lasted only one year - then cracked where toes flexed. I bought second pair because they are great shoes - both summer and winter - but the second pair lasted the same length of time - one year - and now are not waterproof. I am looking for an alternative as I won't be purchasing any more of these.

I take the dog out for a walk every day...about 2 miles. I figure I walked about 2000 miles in my first pair of Muck shoes, all on blacktop, before the soles finally gave out. I immediately bought another pair.

I wear them on hot summer nights and in rain, slush, snow and single digit temperatures.

Super comfortable, warm in winter, cool in summer and totally waterproof. I especially like just being able to step into them. I'm about to buy a pair of taller boots from Muck boots for when the snow's a little deeper.My highest recommendation.. Not the greatest looking shoe in the world, but in my opinion, by far the most practical, comfortable shoe on the market.

Muck shoes work fine while they last, but two problems:
1. Tear up work socks very fast just over the heel.
2. Cracked at the lateral toe flexion area after a little more than a year.

Have had Muck boots for years and love them. Not sure I'd get Muck shoes again.

These are the best garden shoes ever. They are so easy to slip on and off, they stay on even my narrow heeled foot, which is usually a problem for me, and are as waterproof as they are claimed to be. They seem very sturdy, and will really last. I would recommend these to anyone who wants a comfortable, waterproof very well made shoe.

I have had a pair of MuckBoots for years and know that the quality is great. So I purchased this pair as a Christmas gift for my Mom. The only challenge was the sizing. When I initially ordered them they only had unisex sizing...so when I received them they were men's size. When I looked it up again, the sizing had been changed to reflect men's/women's. I reordered and they were a perfect fit. My Mom loves them!

The MuckBoots are very comfortable and easy to pull on and off. I have worn them for many hours at a time whilst working in the yard and they have never felt uncomfortable or difficult. The MuckBoots are easily washed, fully waterproof and still breathable. This makes them ideal for wear on walks. (Although no ankle support, so some terrain may be too difficult for them)I would recommend them to any gardener, whether professioanal or amateur or whether you spend a few minutes or many hours in the yard and garden.

I agree with the other reviewers about the comfort and convenience of these shoes. My first pair wore out on my shovel foot, but I read that they had improved the sole so got a second pair. The rubber on the upper cracked (where it flexes near the base of the toes) during their second season, so they were no longer waterproof. I thought for the price they should have lasted longer, and wrote to the company with my dissatisfaction, but the reply I got simply said "these are warranteed for a year", i.e. tough luck. So, Muck Boot Co has lost a customer.

Everyone but one fellow said that the sizing ran big. So I got my regular size, I'm a 8M. Shoes came in well packed and but far too small if I wore any socks and there is not any lining. So I returned the item and got hit with a 20 dollar return -- 5 for the UPS shipping and another 15.00 for some promotion that I didn't know of. Amazon owns Endless and Zappos and as these shoes are notoriously unpredictable in sizing so I would recommend one those places instead of Amazon.

To be honest totally honest though, Crocs does the same thing for half the price, with a removable lining, and the sizing is always true with Crocs. I really wouldn't recommend this brand.

I have a pair of the Muckboots Jobbers, size 6, which I love. I wear a 7 in other shoes. I thought the garden shoe would be the perfect solution for summertime quick runs out to the barn or kennels, but a 6 was way small, and a 7 flopped off my heels. Alas, not the solution, despite paying for shipping twice. submitted by Bill's other half.
