Is the Melissa Cosmo Boot actually waterproof?

Yes. The listing marks the boot waterproof and water resistant, so it should handle rain and wet pavement. The lace-up tongue is the usual weak point, so avoid standing in deep puddles.

How tall is the heel?

The heel is mid height, listed at 2 to 2.9 inches, on a flat platform lug sole. That is lower than a typical stiletto but higher than a true flat.

Can I wear it in summer?

The listing covers all four seasons, but the PV thermo insulation and synthetic lining are built for cold weather. Expect warm, sweaty feet on hot days.

Does it fit true to size?

No size chart or half sizes are listed, so order your usual size and use the laces to adjust the shaft. If you are between sizes, size up for thicker socks.

What is the sole made of?

The outsole is biobased EVA with a lug pattern. EVA is lighter than rubber but wears faster on rough pavement.
