Kamik Pink Swirl Boot Review

Must Have Monday

If you have narrow feet or calves you may find that most rain boots are frustratingly sloshy—too wide—goopy—etc. If this is the case you need to check out Kamik brand rain boots. They offer basic to fun designs in an overall trimmer fit.

My pink/purple swirls brighten up the gray wet days of winter. It is so nice to have the shaft of the boot fit secure to my leg avoiding rain water sneaking in over the top of the boots. The soles of these boots are durable and flexible. They could stand to have a bit more cushion at the fore-foot but a pair of cushy socks do help. They do have nice shock absorption in the heel delivered by a deep rubber grid underneath the insole that also creates the slope for some gentle arch support.  Kamik's are made in Canada and are recyclable. Awesome!

While I mostly wear these boots in the rain; my other favorite use for these boots is dog bath time. My reluctant pooch knows its bath time when I pair these boots with the garden hose. He is always thankful when the travesty is over and I am thankful for protected dry feet.

Find your favorite Kamik designs at your local Kamik retailer...otherwise check them out at these online stores: zappos.com and amazon.com

Fitting Notes:

U.S. sizing. Whole sizes only. If you are between sizes go up in size. The footbed is removable and thin orthotics may be accommodated. Again, these boots best fit narrow-ish, low volume feet and calves and offer a trimmer look compared with other rain boots on the market. There are some styles offered in wide--Kelsey, Naomi and Ellie.
