"Chooka was once my go-to rainboot brand, but after purchasing these boots, I will not be a repeat customer. After wearing these boots only a handful of times, a hole developed in the sole of one bootie, rendering them completely useless. The soles are not the same quality as my previous Chooka products. This could have been a fluke as it took my other boots several rainy seasons before it affected to bonding and effectiveness of the boots, but I am no longer confident in the manufacturing quality."
