CLC Rain Wear R23013 Over the Sock Black PVC Men’s Rain Boot
This pair of CLC Rain Wear R23013 rain boots is also popular among men because of its strong and sturdy design, as well as its simple design and affordable price. But it may be too plain for many people who like their rain boots to be a bit flashier than this pair.
Features:
- Made of PVC material
- Over-the-sock design
- Men’s sizing used
- Cleated outsole
- Scalloped design on the top line
- EVA foot form feature for comfort
The PVC material used on these boots may look cheap initially but when it’s seen up close, such an initial impression is dispelled. In fact, the material has a great look and feel about it, although the simple – all black with no noticeable embellishments – appearance makes it more practical than beautiful. But men who want durable and practical rain boots will like the simplicity of the pair.
Men also like the over-the-sock design of the boots. This makes it easier to wear and remove the boots, a must for men who cannot be bothered with complicated features. The larger opening also means that these can be worn with thicker socks, which adds to comfort and warmth – and, thus, prolonged wear (i.e., all-day wear).
Traction is also assured with the cleated outsole. For this reason, most men who buy them say that these boots are suitable for more rugged work than a few of the rain boots mentioned in this review.
Pros:
- Simple design that most men like in their weather protective gear
- Thick sole with good traction on rugged terrain
- Easy to clean material from the shaft to the soles
- Easy to wear and remove, thanks to the large opening and easy-slide material
- Fits well over the feet, calves and legs
Cons:
- No padded insoles
- No insulation features
Summary:
The CLC Rain Wear R23013 rain boot is also a great choice for men who want practical boots that can withstand the wear and tear of daily use during rainy seasons. These may be too plain for people who want flashier boots but they work well for people who just want a pair of basic boots. We suggest buying aftermarket padded insoles and wearing thicker socks, if necessary. The padded insoles will provide more comfort when wearing the boots while the thicker socks will add to the warmth.
