Review on Kamik Rocket Weather Boys' Shoes - Toddler and Little Sizes at Boots by Charles Collier

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The band at the upper collar makes it easier to put on or under the leg

The fabric of the upper itself is waterproof, but the stitching that connects it to the waterproof rubber sole is waterproof not waterproof. I will be returning them for another model from the same brand with a "watertight seam". I should have read more carefully. It's a well thought out design that feels extremely solid. The removable liner is convenient to adjust to the child's leg and to dry wet boots. It won't come out accidentally when the child just slides the foot in and out. The cinch at the top collar makes it easy to slide the leg over or under. We had a second problem when they were too tight for my child. We sometimes buy her wide pants, which we get next from Kamik. They work with thin socks, which is fine as they feel so warm. But with the water problem and the landing problem, it's just not worth the hassle. Overall this seems like a good product if your puddles are no deeper than 2 inches. The "waterproof" upper is great for shedding snow, but doesn't hold up in very deep puddles. Try talking about it with a 2 year old!

Pros
  • Clothing, shoes and jewelry
Cons
  • The drawstring is shorter than other models
