- I am a huge Muck Boot fan (note - there are knock offs out there - I am talking about boots made by the Muck Boot Co and under the Muck Boot brand). We use these exclusively on my ranch in Montana and have purchased just about every make and model they have from the Muck Shoes all the way up to the cold weather arctic versions and everything in between.
The neoprene uppers stay soft and are tough in the rough. They are easy on and off due to the soft uppers. I have a high arch and full length rubber boots are always very hard for me to get off. These boots, since the uppers fold down, are much easier to get off.
They work fine over the pant or under the pant. The only time I have seen them break down is when my employees ride motorcycles out to change wheel line, etc. and they hook them on the foot pegs. This can tear the uppers, so they are not indestructible. The rubber bottoms are very well constructed. The steal toe versions of the boots provide good front foot protection. Size seems pretty standard, so if you are a men's 10, the 10 seems to fit true. A typical pair of boots will last years on the ranch and I have never seen one come apart in any place. The sole will wear out before the boot breaks down. Leaking has never been a problem.
One note: The tack or scrub version of the boots has a sole that is not really made for great gripping on slick surfaces (at least that is my experience). They work fine in the barn, but if you are going to be doing a bunch of walking outdoors, over ice or slick mud, I recommend the "lug" soles.
I have worn the arctic version of the boot in very cold weather (-10 F) and your feet will stay warm with a good sock. I would not use them to stand for long periods of time in very cold weather, as there are better boots made for that kind of performance. The non-arctic versions get worn all year around unless it's very cold.
These boots are not cheap in price, but the last thing I want is wet, cold or sore feet or a boot that breaks down quickly. Muck Boots perform very well and will outlast cheaper brands by a long time.

- It makes it earier to get from the house to the shop through our backyard which becomes a swamp when it rains.
- The boot fit nicely, but it was massive. It had tons of padding that I do not remember reading about, or perhaps, in my fervor to get it at $16 instead of the $60 I would have payed elsewhere, I may have missed the text. Either way, I ended up reselling and getting a different pair. They felt sturdy and solid though.
- Very nice boot. Bought them for my father-in-law. We could not find this type of boot with the pull out liner locally. Product was just as depicted in ad.
- These are nice solid boots. Warm, comfortable, and perfect for shoveling.
I only wish I'd had them last night when I was standing in a foot of frozen water due to a backed up storm drain. These are the kind of boots that will ace a challenge like that.

- As long as you don't spend any time on wet or greasy floors, these are excellent boots. Otherwise, they are little better than roller skates. A great outdoor boot though.
