So not sure if warmth is really essential. I always get our Hunter boots large and pair them with thicker socks to wear when big, and thin socks the following year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-rain-boots#post-2324437 Sat, 17 Oct 2015 18:26:35 +0000 regberadaisy 2324437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No clue about their sizing but I know Hunters run big so I bought some boot socks and with those they fit just right. Will definitely last her two seasons. I'm not sure the socks are necessary for warmth in SoCal....?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-rain-boots#post-2324304 Sat, 17 Oct 2015 14:29:57 +0000 Myicitygirl 2324304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We live in SoCal and with predictions of a very rainy winter, I want to buy rain boots for my 18 month old and 3.5 yo. </p> <p>Anyone have good experience with Stride Rite rain boots? (The brand is Western Chief.) Will rubber rain boots be warm enough or would you buy lined or winter boots? </p> <p>The website says to buy a full size down. But I want these boots to last until at least the spring/summer. Should I buy their current size and just use thick socks? </p> <p>Help! </p>
