text: These boots are cute and fit a tad big as most rain boots do. Aside from the cute design though, these rain boots just don't cut it. They didn't hold up well at all. My 9 year old wore these as backyard shoes daily to walk around our property looking for frogs, toads, lizards, etc. and within the first couple of weeks one of the buckles and the strap tore off completely. Not quite 3 total months later and the top part of the right boot came completely off of the back half of the sole of the boot. She can no longer wear them. They just disintegrated, and weren't overused, she didn't do anything that would cause such wear and tear in such a short amount of time. I've bought my girls rainboots in the past that have gone through both my girls and then even handed down to a friend's kiddo and still held up great through years and several kiddos. Won't buy this brand again, and I don't recommend these boots.
