Great boots for kids!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I was happy with this purchase, and my new kindergartener was thrilled. They seem well made, like they would last as long as my son can fit into them. The little loops on top of the boots really make it simple and fast for kids to dress themselves. Would definitely recommend these boots!

Beautiful boots, its a pity they are made with such bad materials. they get break and lots of places by they self, like after 10 times of use and they loose the impermeable condition
Great quality kids boots

The boots came in a great box for my granddaughter to play with, she loves her boots and so does her mom. These will last a long time.
Cute but not durable
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
My four-year old needed new rainboots and fell in love with these frog boots. They are very cute, but after just one weekend of kicking around on a beach, they are completely scuffed up and look like they are a year old. My son doesn’t care, but it looks to me like they won’t last very long before they develop leaks at this rate. We have had Xtratufs for kids before, and they are by far the most durable rainboot I know of (my second son is using hand-me-down Xtratufs that are still in great shape), but they are a dull olive color and, as far as my 4YO is concerned, they can’t compete with more colorful versions.
No more struggles over Boots!

We’ve been buying Western Chief rain boots for my son since he was 20 months old. We are on our 5th pair and I’m placing an order for our 6th and 7th pairs (as I have to pay duty). Oh, and a second pair for me! Red.
I love them. My kid loves them. He would wear his boots for any occasion… if I let him.
We’ve always bought the correct size for him. The only time the sizing seemed off was with a pair of Lady Bug boots – too small. So, I just wrapped them up and gave them to a friend’s daughter for her birthday. They are just that classy – kids love them. My son has had two pairs of the frog boots, two pairs of the bumble bee boots (I have a pair of these as well and they’ve held up well to my heavy duty gardening antics), and one pair of dinosaur boots.
I’m so surprised that others have had a bad experience with these boots. I’ve found the Western Chief boots to be the cadillacs of rubber boots. I pass them down to my nieces and nephews and they are still all going strong. Well-loved. Well-used. Well-worn.
Disappointing, Very Poor Quality

I bought these boots for my twenty-month-old. They cracked and began disintigrating in one week of moderate use in Springtime temperatures, mud, and puddles. They do not come in widths, because, as we parents know, all children are the same size. Hence, they fit REALLY well (note the sarcasm here).
I’m amazed that anyone has given them a decent reveiw. What a waste of hard-earned money! I only gave it one star because zero was not an option.
Good Product

The boots were a little pricey for what they were. But my kids love them and they are sturdy rain boots. The delivery on them was super fast especially for Christmas season.
Cute and comfortable
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
These boots are very cute and seem to be holding up well through gentle use. My son has worn them about 4 times. They are nicely and deeply treaded on the bottom. Since we use them only infrequently, I gave them 4 instead of 5 stars since I can’t comment much as to their ruggedness. I bought them a little larger than his regular size, since their main purpose is for puddle jumping, and fit is not that important. I’d just as soon put an extra pair of socks on him now and get another year of use out of them! LOL
Sized Correctly
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I followed the reviews stating to order a smaller size than your child wears and was very disappointed to find that they were too small. I had just had my child’s foot measured at Nordstrom about a week before ordering these. His foot measured as an 8. I was planning on ordering a 9, but followed the advise of the other reviews and instead ordered an 8. When they arrived, they were too small. Now I have to pay twice as much in shipping to get the correct size, which defeats my savings of ordering them on here in the first place. I’d recommend NOT going smaller!!
Plan on buying a size smaller than your child usually wears!

I agree with the previous mom who wrote a review. We actually bought ours at Target as well, and the sizing is quite off. Plan on buying a size smaller than your child usually wears! Other than the sizing issue, the boots are super cute and my son absolutely loves them. He likes to wear them around the house for dress up play as well…. we don’t get much rain where we live.
Buy at your own risk

These would be great boots if you had some way of knowing what size to order. I emailed Western Chief for a size chart. I then ordered my son’s boots according to the size chart Western Chief sent me. Once I received the boots I was upset to see that the boots were over 1 inch larger than the size chart showed – this is a big deal for a child’s boot. I then called Western Chief and explained the situation and asked to get an actual measurement of a few other sizes so I could order the correct boots. I spoke with a Ms. Brewer, who was rather rude, she told me she would have to go to the warehouse to measure the boots and she would call me back. Of course that was a week ago.
I luckily found very similar boots at Target – problem solved.
How could a company have a shoe size chart that is so wrong? The bad customer service was just the cherry on top
