Classic slip on boots.
Perfect to slip on to take the dogs out, head into the garden or into town to run rainy or snowy day errands.

Terrible.
Ordered these for my husband and we know his LL Bean fit. These are so wide and absolutely goofy. Terrible fit! Bummer. Going back to the Original Bean Boots.

My best shoes since I discovered them in 2011.
I already have 2 pairs of this model with laces, so I bought this model without laces.

Great Boots
The boots are well made and will last for a very long time, hopefully. The fit was a bit loose for me but fixed that with some inserts which made a big difference.

Too wide
Ordered size, based on sizing guide. One size under my usual. Still too big in the heel area. The heel box is almost an inch wider than my foot. I’m taking them to a local shop to see if some padding can be added. Thick socks don’t help. I’m really trying to like these boots, due to easy off/on.

Good boot choice on my part!
I needed a new pair of outside shoes for when the ground is wet from rain or dew and I was going to get a fourth pair of Bean's Gum Shoes but decided on these 6.5 inch Chelsea Bean Boots. Great choice on my part. The best part about these boots is that I can slip them on on the porch when I have to take our dog out (or whatever), I don't have to try and tie them before I leave the porch and they are comfortable. I have worn them with different weight socks and so far all do well in these boots. I can highly recommend these slip-on boots to keep your feet dry while easy walking or simple chores outside in the damp in the Finger Lakes region of New York.

Well Made. Awful design
First off, my sneaker size is 11.5. My redwing size is 10.5. I needed a size 9 in these boots to get the right length.
Even when properly sized, they feel way too loose around the ankle and heel. I cant imagine what these would be good for. They are way too wobbly and loose to be suitable for anything but short walks on perfectly flat surfaces.

Heels float around making wearing them awkward.
Horrible fit. I purchased these to replace an older pair (8 years of wear) that were a bit higher and had the zipper on the side. So I ordered the same size in this model. The heel area is so oversize that it makes wearing these a joke. Their advice to wear thick socks doesn't work for me because the thicker, and I mean thicker, enough socks cramp my toes. And what appears to be the elastic side panels have zero elasticity.

Heal is way too loose.
I ordered this in a size 11, and it was too large. I returned it for an exchange to a size ten. This seem to be the correct size except the heel area was very very loose. I think there are something wrong with the way. These are sized as the heel is way too loose and I have to send these back.

Disappointed!
Was disappointed that the boot wasn’t the same as others I have gotten. Much shorter and the sizes are way off.

“THESE BOOTS WERE MADE FOR WALKING and WORKING
My previous boots lasted several years and finally walked away to boot heaven after many years. The new ones are very comfortable, fit nicely and they look forward to at least ten years AND the new ones have a MUCH larger hole for my fat finger to fit in to. LLBean continues to ‘Raise the Bar in every thing they do. Keep on Keeping on. .

Nice boot, but…
I bought these boots about six months ago, and despite trying very hard to like them, they are too big for me. They are a nice boot, and I ordered down a size as per the instructions, but even with heavy socks, my feet slip around in them. I will be returning them shortly.

The ankle is really big so the heels slipped
Nice boot and nice fit in the smaller size but, the boots were too big in the ankles and his heel slipped out. Returned them for some lace ups.

Fall off feet
Was way too loose. When I put this on and walked (with sox) it was falling off my foot. Bean boots are good, but get the laces dagnabbit!

Not what I expected
TLDR/sloppy fit, poor execution of chelsea boot, reduced quality of materials.
Just got these a couple of days ago and I am somewhat underwhelmed.
The lower seems to be of the quality I have come to know with bean boots.
The upper however leaves a lot to be desired.
The leather is thin and too soft. It is definitely not up to the same specs as my old bean boots.
Also, the upper is poorly executed. It fits like a Wellington but with elastic added to the side as a fashionable adornment that serves no purpose other than to allow water into the boots. I expect the top of a chelsea boot to be tighter and provide some retention to the foot. These do not do that.
I will be returning these. Probably just get a couple of pairs of Grundens for the price.

LL Bean no longer re-soling duck boots
This boot has gotten too expensive and LL Bean no longer re-soles them, which is a big disapointment.

Lounger Boots
I had the old style that were all leather uppers for 20 years and had new soles put on them one time. Bottom line is you just can’t beat Bean quality. I wear them hunting to and from my spot. I can wear heavy Sox and slip out of them and into my waders. Wear them every morning taking the dog out. Order one size down for a perfect fit.

Don’t waste your time and money
These boots are very disappointing. The heel cup is way too large. You can literally kick this boot right off your foot. I’m actually shocked LL Bean sells these as they are. I returned mine and went with another brand. Your loss LL Bean. I cannot recommend this product until it is completely redesigned.

Nice looking boot
Horrible fit. Tries 1 size smaller than usual as suggested. It was way too large in both length and width. Returned for next size smaller, nartowest width. It was way too short, and way too wide. Tried thick socks, double socks. These boots are not made to fit. Seems like a pack boot molded bottom without the packs. Incredibly poor design. Waste of money shipping back and forth. Sorry Bean. Never again.

Size, Heel feel, comfort in my new 'Bean Boots' NC
The previous reviews are correct, order a size down (if not 1 1/2 sizes down, if you are not going to be wearing thicker socks with them). I wear an 8 1/2 size shoe and the size 7 Bean Boot fit well. The heel is small, and I am getting used to it, but have 'slipped' to one side a few times, which I didn't on my previous waterproof boots. They are comfortable, and keep my feet warm and dry. And, they look great! Would recommend this boot.

Sizes run really big
The sizing is not even close. I ordered the size (13, he normally wears a 14) recommended on the sizing guide for my husband’s Christmas gift. The boots were so large that they flopped when he tried to walk.

AWESOME BOOTS
Bought these boots as a gift for my husband & he loves them! He has lots of lace-up boots, but wanted something he could easily pull on & off. These work great & are very comfortable. LLBean does it again 👍👍

Way too big
I order a size 10, too big and very sloppy fitting. Sent them back. My husband has order other style boot size 10 and was very happy with the way they fit.
