Review on πŸ‰ Merrell Ontario Hiking Dragonfly Little Boys' Shoes: Designed for Outdoor Adventures by Fred Meeks

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Really NOT waterproof

They fit well and cover the ankles well but other reviews put me off saying they aren't waterproof so I decided to try that before letting the kids put them on Path. . I used a garden hose to mimic a rain shower. The first drops were repelled by the fabric, but very soon the paper I put inside got wet, especially where the suede meets the mesh. I didn't even need much water from my artificial rain to get wet. They will never survive a real downpour or "survive" by stepping in a puddle. Too bad they look very breathable and therefore comfortable.

Pros
  • 100% suede
Cons
  • Brief instructions
