Well stupid costco didn't have my size in black (only grey, which I didn't like!)</p> <p>I hope I can find them in my size/color combination. They have them online, but the online versions aren't glossy whereas the ones in store WERE glossy, and I definitely like the glossy better </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-are-rain-boots-supposed-to-fit#post-1062194 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 20:41:45 +0000 Von 1062194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hate wet legs, so I'd do Knee high -- water on my calves + wet pants legs are my two greatest peeves in life!</p> <p>To attach a photo, just upload it from your computer using the add photo link.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-are-rain-boots-supposed-to-fit#post-1062185 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 20:30:26 +0000 tammyw 1062185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never attached pictures here. How does everyone normally do it?</p> <p>The Kamik's aren't knee high - they are more mid calf. They aren't tight on the calf AT ALL. I ran over to Costco and tried on the knee high glossy hunters. They were fairly nice. What's better? Kamik or Hunter? Knee high or mid calf? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-are-rain-boots-supposed-to-fit#post-1062157 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 19:55:35 +0000 Von 1062157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you have a photo of how they fit?&nbsp; I have been looking at Kamiks online for two weeks now, but according to the measurements on almost all of them, I need the wides. And the reviews for most say they calves fit extra small. </p> <p>I have yet to try a Kamik pair in person, but I'll tell you that with 15 1/2 inch calves, I had to fight to get off the last pair of regular tall Hunters that I tried on. They were skin tight and had suction like you would not believe.&nbsp; According to my cheat sheet (don't laugh...), The Hunters are 15 inches cir. at 16 inches shaft height, where those Ellies are 16 wide at 12 inches tall.&nbsp; I havent found any Kamiks between 15 and 16 circumference though.&nbsp; I'd rather have them loose than the way the Hunters felt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-are-rain-boots-supposed-to-fit#post-1062133 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 19:15:00 +0000 tammyw 1062133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just received these from Amazon. I ordered W because I thought it would help with "easy wearing". They are a little bit big and my heel pulls up a little. But is this how they are supposed to fit? I'm wearing thick socks with them.<br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00599Z9J4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ.....#038;psc=1</a></p> <p>Also these Kamik's have a pretty wide calf, so I'm wondering if they'll let in too much rain that way?</p> <p>I'm also thinking of going to Costco to try the Hunter boots they have in stock there.</p> <p>I've never worn rainboots, but think they could definitely be useful since the only winter we get is rain.</p>
