Advertised as Universal but could ONLY fit a woman's foot. I could not even get my toes down into the boot. If you are a man DON'T even waste your time ordering these boots.

Perfect barn boot
The first time on out of the box, they felt a bit snug, but after wearing them around doing various barn chores and riding, they felt comfortable on my feet. I am 5'4 and of slender to average build, I had no problem with the fit in the calf. I also didn't encounter other reviewer's problems of the top back of the boot being too tall and cutting into my leg.
They were no more unbearable in the 100 degree heat than my leather boots, although I did notice that they breathed less, and my feet seemed sweatier at the end of the day.
The boots and lining are very comfortable, and thick enough that I don't think my feet will freeze come winter, like with some uninsulated rubber boots.
Most of all, I absolutely love the ability to trudge across a swampy field, or take the horses swimming in the river and stay completely dry. Of course, hosing them down to clean them off is a great perk too.
I would reccommend these boots to anyone asked, and possibly some who didn't.

Affordable gear
The instructor prefers leather boots, but my wallet prefers these. My friend who owned horses and rode all her life used this type of boot for lessons and day to day use. Easy clean up and when my daughter's feet grow overnight it won't break the bank to get new ones. I don't know how they wear yet. The fit is loose on an adolescent leg.

Nice, Durable Boot
I ordered these boots to use in the paddock & for riding. I wouldn't recommend riding in these boots. I'm 5'4" and the backs of the boots cut into the back of my knees. I LOVE them for the paddock! Completely waterproof up to your knees, with all the rain this summer, they worked out awesome! Just hose them off and you're done!

Great product for the price
The quality, value & durability of this boot are as it says in the description, without question. The only thing I can find fault with is the length of the boot leg. I'm average height (5'4") & the top of the boot pushes into the backs of my knees. I'm glad I read the reviews about the size difference, that helped a great deal. I wear an 8- 8-1/2, so I ordered a 9. Fits perfect. Be sure to wear with socks, otherwise you'll never get your feet out again! =)

Awesome Boots! They last n last!
I love these boots. I have had a pair of these for years and I'm about to order another pair today. They are super durable and you really can't tell they aren't leather unless you look at them a few inch's away so they look great and fit snug. They feel incredible to ride in as well and are great in the mud! The only draw back is that I always take a size smaller in boots so I can't seem to get into a size 8 (I'm 9 but in boots I take aa 8.5) so I have to go to the size 9 and that makes them a little roomy. But other than that I love these!

Dublin, quality, but not quite tall enough
If you're petite or a kid, the Dublin boots would probably work great for you. Mine arrived and I tried them on, the fit was great in the foot, and the quality was high. My being on the taller side (5 ft. 6-1/2 inches), the only drawback was the boots were too short for my calves, and didn't go all the way up to my knees, so I had to send the boots back. But for shorter folks or for kids, I'd recommend these boots.

does the job of keeping you dry and warm
narrow calf and wide somewhat long foot area
foot doesn't perspire, but around calf does slightly because they are snug which makes it really hard to remove them. I am petite with normal size calves.
I don't ride, but I do recommend them for getting through snow and mud though.

Very Pleased
I purchased these boots for my young grandaughter. She is tall & very thin, so the narrow calves were good for her & the advice from other reviews to get the next size up was very helpful. They fit perfectly! I was delighted with the quality - you really can't tell they are not leather.
