This shorter version is easy to put on
Very comfortable and easy to put on. The leather upper flexes well, so that my footing feels stable on uneven ground. I've had the taller bean boots for many year and I'll still use them. However, this shorter version is better for daily use as it is easier to put on.

Fit for high instep and chubby ankles
Ordering shoes and boots online is a challenge for me. These 6” Bean boots fit my high instep and not so slim ankles nicely. I debated between sizes and ended up ordering the larger of the two recommended sizes. The first few attempts at putting these on were a bit of a struggle. The more I’ve worn these boots the easier it has become. The leather has loosened up and they are comfortable on my feet and ankles. I’ve worn them about 10 times in the last two weeks and I just need to tug on the leather loop at the back of the boot to get my feet in quickly. I cannot wear a thick sock in these boots yet, but they fit my needs for a waterproof boot for walking my dogs and gardening with a thin sock or barefoot sometimes. I’m very happy with the style, function, and fit (after breaking them in).

Best Boots Ever!
I've been raving about these boots to everyone! They're precisely what I needed. With our small farm, I'm constantly outdoors, so keeping my feet dry and comfortable is essential. These boots deliver on both fronts! They're incredibly comfortable, allowing me to work outside all day with ease, and they provide excellent protection for my feet. I couldn't ask for a better pair of boots!

Worth the Purchase
Perfect fit. I love that I could order a narrow. Comfortable too. Great quality. The laces tighten up nicely with little effort.

Great boots!
I love this boot! It took a little while for my right ankle to adjust but now they feel great! I wore them in a Canadian snow storm and they were awesome!

These boots are made for walking...
It took a week or two of wearing these boots every day before they felt comfortable. The upper edge was stiff and pressed on my ankle. I experimented with socks and my orthopedic inserts. I am now wearing two pairs of socks and everything feels fine.

I cannot get my foot in the shoe!
These boots have a tongue that is stitched down all the way to the top the shoe and does not open wide. I cannot gt my foot into the boot! Sadly returning.
Never got my foot in so I cannot answer your questions regarding fit but cannot post until I answer...so bogus information.

Best boot ever
I wear my Bean Boots while doing my yard work. It is so nice to have dry & comfortable feet! Who would have thought a pair of boots would make you happy. Best yet the boots are made in the USA!

Sizing is not dependable
I really wanted these to work because I need a pair of waterproof boots, most reviews were positive and I have a lot of llbean items that I love. I ordered a size down as suggested and they were too small. Normally a 7.5 and ordered a 7. I would have tried a different style but returning can get expensive! Sizing is undependable.

Best boot I've had
I love this boot. If I could have tried on for sizing, I could have gotten a better fit but since I have no stores in my area, I had to guess size. They are a bit big for me, but work great anyway if I use bulky socks and tighten laces completely. I use them for walking every morning through wet grass and muddy areas.

Didn’t like the tongues
The tongues were angled into the top of my foot and made it quite uncomfortable. I also wound have to wear insoles so I didn’t feel the ground below. I returned them.

A great shoe for wet weather. Fit is true to size with a heavy sock.

Usual size works only with HEAVYWEIGHT socks
I wear a size 10 and that's what I ordered. They fit perfectly with the Bean Boot sock (heavy weight) coupled with a liner. So, logic tells me that if I preferred to wear a lightweight sock, I'd need to size down to a 9.

Fits good, slippery soles
Fit is good with thick socks. The soles, however, are extremely slippery. Having this same boot previously never had a problem and I’m sure I’ll wear once the weather is better. Disappointed that the soles prevent me from wearing them now.

What are waiting for?!
I am officially the proud owner of bean boots! After reading countless reviews I was skeptical to move forward with my purchase, the thought of having to size down from an 11 to 10 and a possibility the boot may have a defect, these are hand made after all, was enough of a deterrent. Then, the boots went on sale and it seemed like too good of a deal to pass up. These boots are everything I expected and more. I did size down as recommended and the fit is spot on. These are so comfortable to wear in the snow, mud and on trails. I can’t recommend these enough!

Just like the old ones, only bigger
The boots are a moderate height- adequate for all but the rare snow storm (climate change) in Indiana. The boots are also good for wet, muddy situations. My new boots are just as well made as the pair they replaced (15+ years) which were only replaced because my feet have grown.
At first, the front of one boot pushed into my shin, but after bending the leather and wearing the boots for short periods, they are now comfortable.
The one thing that was slightly disappointing is the quality of the laces. They seem thinner and wimpy compared to the old shoes’ laces, and the lace tips are not solidly sealed so they may soon start to fray. Overall though, excellent boots.

Terrific, purchase/great value
Sizing recommendation from L.L. Bean was helpful. I normally wear a 9 1/2 and sometimes 10 and the guidelines indicated to size down which was perfect. Quality is everything I remember from my last pair, which I bought many years ago.

Went with the tumbled-leather instead
I returned these. I wasn’t a fan of the sewn-in tongue, and the hard collar rubbed uncomfortably. I went with the tumbled leather instead. They were well worth the extra expense. They’re easier to get on/off, and the padded collar doesn’t rub.
I typically wear a women’s 9.5W shoe. I’ve found that a size 9 is best for me in Bean boots. The medium (B) width is fine—no need to go with the D. The 9s are a little long, but the 8s are a little short. I wish they came in half sizes.
Please always keep Bean boots Made in Maine!
