Short people and Hunter boots

[amberlyrose]

I want a pair of Hunters but the ones I'm looking at are not in stock at my Nordstrom. I'm short, so I worry that they'll go to my knee or over and I won't be able to move around without looking like a robot. I measured and it looks like it could go either way. 

Any short people have issues?

What do you consider short? I'm 5'5", maybe a smidge shorter and the classic height is stiff and goes to right under my knee.

Extra Petite did a comparison of the kids vs. the packable ones. She has lots of measurements on there that might be helpful. I don't own a pair, so I'm no help.

I'm 5'3" ( really 5'2.75") and I wear the regular ones with no problem. I got them at Costco so they were cheap

[amberlyrose]

I'm 5'0

I am 5' and I got a kid size 5. I wear a women's 6.5 usually. They are pretty high on my calves. There is no way I could do the regular women's Hunters.

Ok, looks like I may need to just go find a store with the kids and the packable. The calf circumference is just slightly larger than my calf, so I'll have to try on with socks and/or jeans to see if it'd work at all

I'm 5'1 and I have no issues with the regular Hunters.

Curse my big feet! I want kids Hunter boots! I wear a size 7 - 7.5 in Women's though. Ugh.

[marlenabell]

5'2'' here and never had a problem! I do think they are wicked uncomfortable to wear and never used them!

You do know that they make women sizes right?

Yes, but I want a bargain and I don't want boots that come to the bottom of my knee.  But mostly I want the discount.

I'm 5'1 and I wear the kids ones. I really like the height of them.

[scorpio72]

I'm 5'2" with size 9 feet (no kid sizes for me) and have no problems. They come a few inches below my knee. I do have a lot of space in the calf but that's the only issue.

I'm a little taller than 5'2 and have no problems. I wear size 9.

This exactly except I'm a women's 5.5 and got a kids 4.  :-)
