Is the Eastland Edina boot actually waterproof?

Yes. The leather upper is listed as waterproof, so it handles rain and wet sidewalks. The laces and seams are the spots to watch in deep puddles.

How tall is the shaft and heel?

The shaft is 12 inches from the heel, so it reaches mid-calf. The heel is 1 inch with a 0.25-inch platform.

No. The Edina fastens with laces only, so you tighten and loosen it along the front of the leg.

It gives more calf coverage and warmth than an ankle boot, and the lacing adjusts the fit higher up the leg. The trade-off is slower on and off.

The upper is leather and the lining is textile, with a foam insole inside and a rubber outsole.

The heel is low at 1 inch and the platform is thin, so it walks close to flat. The foam insole adds some cushioning.
