Dr. Martens Women's Nellie BootReviewsThese are so much fun. I got them in Yellow and Black. They are extra warm, but they are not water proof. These are not Wellies. The label says so too. After a few bad feedbacks I read, I still wanted them and got them from AUTHENTIC PRO SPORTS. They are lovely. I love monochromes and these are for my collection. TRue to size. You wear boots a size UK7, you order these in the same size too. The floppy top makes it easy to tuck jeans in. NO zipper needed. Hmm....lovely! THanks to the team at Authentic Pro Sports for sending me these and everything is correct, size, style and color! ;-) I read all of the other reviews and decided based on those to give these boots a chance. It is true that the shaft is a little larger for those of us with larger calves (yay). So they passed the first test; I can pull them on over my pants. Now for the big question; many reviews said that these boots weren't waterproof, but noone said to what extent they were. What is a girl to do? Field test! I pulled on these suckers and went for a walk in the woods. I waded thru puddles and even stood in a few half-way up the shaft of the boots or more, and what did I find out? They are not waterproof. I waded thru 3 large puddles and stood in 2 for 10 seconds or more before they started to leak, but it was just slight leakage. My socks got a little damp. So, onward I went after several more deep puddles all that happened was my socks were a little more damp. I am going to try sealing the seams and see if that fixes the slight leaks that I encountered, but unless you are hoping to be able to stand in a foot of water and stay dry I wouldn't be afraid to use these boots in wet conditions. I don't believe that they would leak under normal conditions. I really enjoy the boots, very comfy. The green is even more vibrant in person, hahaha, I love them! Not really waterproof, but I've not gotten wet feet trudging through all this snow in PA. I bought these boots last week and love them. There about the fun-est boots on the market I've seen. Haven't worn them in rain as I read not fully waterproof. I have worn them in snow a couple of times already and no wet feet and a sure step soul,did not feel like they were slippery on snow.I have serious back problems and Dr. Martens to me are the best shoes I've ever worn especially for the back , knees & the feet. I put these boots on for the first time and fit perfect. I ordered my reg size I would normally wear cause wasn't sure how they run and had no problem. I can wear a thicker sock or a thin sock and they fit great. Like another person review said they fit the larger calf, and they do.I have a high arch and had no problems getting into them.They come off very easy too.I loved them so much I bought another pair in the red as mine were the black I just wore all week.I've had many women walk up to me to say how pretty and fun they look. So don't be shy,wear them with confidence,your gonna love them too.Plus u see many eyes look your way.I don't think your going to find this comfort any where else (period) Average Rating:![]() |

Nellie is what happens when you cross your favorite rainboot with a classic Dr. Marten style. The coated fabric shaft features a floral print, while the patent leather panels bring more shine and durability. |
