I love wearing these shoes for rainy days. They faithfully keep my feet dry. My only complaint is that my pair discolored slightly after a couple months of use. They still look nice enough and I love wearing them. I wore them for an entire summer of travel and they fit great, held up great for miles of walking in the rain and in the heat of the Caribbean and Southern Italy they were more breathable than I expected for waterproof shoes. I recommend wearing them with very thin, lightweight socks.
