Columbia Luxey Bliss™ Down Jacket

Overall:

Perfect. Love this jacket. Kept me warm through 25 degrees today. Long enough to cover the top of my pants. Lightweight. The hood is long enough to pull over my forehead. Fleece lined pockets. Nice addition is the extra long sleeves that can be buttoned up when you don't want them long. I bought the white and it's pretty, too.

Overall:

Not sure if you can tell from the picture (I couldn't), but the shoe material is pretty thin, like a moccasin, even in the heel part. I was expecting something built more like a typical athletic shoe. But this is actually pretty comfortable. The shoes are lightweight with a decent arch support (although it's a bit too far forward for my foot) and a roomy toe box. In the past Columbia has run a little short on me (size 11 womens), but these are perfect. I ordered a box full of alternatives, including Keen, Skechers, Teva, and Clarks, but the others are going back; these are the keepers.

They are just what I wanted! Warm and well fitting, and ready for another long, and cold winter! Plenty of room for winter socks, which is great because I hate cold feet!

Love the style of this shoe. They need time to break in, very stiff. Fairly comfortable after few weeks break-in time. Size runs small, order 1/2 size larger.

These boots are awesome. I normally wear a 7.5 so I ordered an 8 like others suggested and they fit perfect. They are very warm and comfortable to wear all day. The look very good with jeans.

Reviewer: Matt C from Pittsburgh, PA

Overall:

These are great boots. They are water tight, warm, and rugged enough for my daily walks to and from the bus stop, over some light off-sidewalk terrain. I wear these boots in my casual dress office all day. I find them comfortable enough for me, although I spend most of my day sitting. I sometimes walk briskly and occasionally run to a bus I'm late. They aren't exactly comfortable for that, but it's OK for me. They're good for hiking and tromping through the woods as well. Although, I might like a higher arch for extended walks over terrain.

Overall:

These are great boots, and from what I can tell, completely waterproof. And warm, not too toasty. Good arch support, seem true to size, but perhaps just a bit wide, just wear a heavier sock. No heel slippage, great looking, comfortable! I'd buy again.

Reviewer: Victor Z from Washington, DC

Overall:

I wore the Columbia Grizztooths for the majority of a backpacking/hiking trip in South America that involved some moderately challenging mountain hikes (Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu) and some rain. During the whole trip I never found myself thinking about my feet, and I think that speaks enough for this product. These aren't the waterproof version, but I eagerly recommend these shoes for fair weather outdoor activity. I suggest wearing these with a good pair of wool hiking socks to maximum comfort.

Overall:

These shoes are awesome. I got a pair about 2 years ago and they're still going strong. I wear them pretty much every day all day. They're stylish, but functional. I just got a second pair today in another color. The other ones aren't worn out, just need to be washed, but I wanted some variety. They are super comfy for walking all day, with or without socks (though I think they look better without socks). I got my actual size, 8, and they fit great. I love these shoes and would totally recommend them.

Reviewer: Linda from Ft. Worth, Texas

Overall:

Love these boots!I ordered these boots as soon as they were available since my feet are always cold. They were comfortable right out of the box. The fit, with medium heavy socks, is good, although I'd say they run a tiny bit on the narrow side. The heater function works very well. The heat seems to start around the ankle and top of the foot and radiates down. Mine kept my feet warm the whole time I had them on. Quite cozy and toasty! I also own a pair of Uggs, which I like, but they don't keep my feet as warm as these boots do. These boots look like motorcycle boots, so they're not dressy. But they are meant for outdoor activities and indoor warmth, so dressy was not in the design. I would definitely recommend them!

These are super comfortable, warm, and nice looking. I'm a little worried about moisture messing up the suede, but treating them with something should help. They are a touch on the wide side when I took out the insole to put in my orthotics.

Love these boots! I live in Colorado (high of 20 degrees expected tomorrow), and so I needed something super cozy and warm. These cute boots manage to look stylish at the same time. I also appreciate the sturdy sole with great grip. Definitely recommend.

These are fantastic boots (even for fluffy calves)! I ordered these boots on Sunday night, and of course they arrived on Tuesday afternoon! They are fashionable and functional. I have wide calves, and they fit easily. I used to wear Salomon snow clogs (they were short), and these are just like those but with a boot leg! They are very very warm, even without socks!

Columbia Watu®

Reviewer: Alex M from Alexandria, VA

Overall:

I have two Columbia shoes that I have been very happy with. One for Hiking and another for day to day casual "boat shoe". I was taking a trip to the Mexican Riviera and needed a shoe that was an all in one deal. The Columbia Watu was just that! I wore them on the plane, I took it hiking up a mountain, I toured the the streets all day, I took it to the beach and got them wet and sandy. I even wore them when I kayaked in Cabo San Lucas. But best of all I wore them when we did an ATV tour through the mountains of Puerto Vallarta. The toe guard really protected my feet from the ATV. I usually get pain in my heels when I wear these type of shoes, but I had no pain with the Watu. Thanks Zappos and thanks Columbia for making yet again a wonderful product.

Reviewer: Patrick S from Woodstock, GA

Overall:

I bought the Columbia Firelane Mid Omni-Tech because I needed a reasonably priced waterproof shoe for bass fishing in the rain, etc. I sprayed them with water repellant right out of the box.The shoes are very comfortable on my size EE feet. It hasn't rained yet but I've stepped into cold, ankle-deep water a couple of times. Regular shoes would have soaked through. These are completely waterproof and my feet stayed warm (wool socks) and dry. I would definitely buy these again.

Minnesota winters are brutal on my feet that are always cold, even in summer. I've discovered that shearling lamb inside shoes and boots keep my feet warm. This style is good looking enough for me to wear for nearly every occasion. I wear them almost daily.

Columbia Lafayette Street™ Jacket

Reviewer: Onehipmama from

Overall:

I\'m in love with this jacket. I needed something that was warm, well made, and dressy enough to wear to work with slacks. This was one of the few jackets that met all 3 criteria, and I\'ve gotten quite a few compliments. A few notes: the photo makes the jacket appear loose around the waist. It\'s more fitted than that, but not snug. Also, the photo for the color "cocoa" makes the jacket look shimmery. When I researched this product & color on other websites, it looked dull brown! In reality, it\'s less shiny than in Zappos\'s picture, but still has enough of a sheen to make it interesting. On sizing, I usually wear a size 4 and ordered XS which fits perfectly.

Overall:

I love the color (black, gray and purple) and style of this shoe. I wanted something feminine with good support, but didn't want that bulky look. It's very light and comfortable; however, it was a bit rough around the ankle. It's not a big deal unless you're wearing very thin socks. My feet are pretty narrow, so if yours are more on the wide side then you may find it a bit too narrow.

Overall:

This is a cool looking, comfortable shoe! The strap across the top is slightly loose but doesn\'t look bad. It just doesn\'t serve a purpose. They run wider than a typical medium width shoe which gave me ample room. My feet are a little wider than average and without socks these shoes are slightly loose. I am usually a consistent 8.5M but I ordered an 8 based on other reviews and it fit perfectly. I dig this shoe and will look into purchasing more shoes by Columbia.

Nice little sturdy shoe. Does not look clunky. Although the length (one size small as advised) is fine, the band is slightly tight as a new shoe. Would purchase again.

I was looking for waterproof boots to wear in the woods while walking my dog. These do the trick. They fit well, are warm and definitely waterproof. I wish they had a little more ankle support but otherwise they are great.

I love this shoe! Very good arch support; I usually use orthotics, but don't need them with these clogs. The fleecy insole is very cozy and comfy. The shoes held up well after getting wet with rain. They will be my go-to shoe for this Fall and Winter.

Reviewer: from Berkeley CA

Overall:

Good so far, except the laces are pathetic! Note that I just got these & haven't really worn them yet, just around the house to try them out. I wear orthotics & have very picky feet; I need a lot of firm support from my shoes. These seem to fit the bill. The sole is quite solid & I feel good arch support from these. I will replace the laces immediately, though, because they are just terrible: the laces are very thin, but the clasp/toggle/closure (don't know what to call it) is very flawed. On one shoe, the lace is already frayed (just after trying on the shoe a few times) because something in the closure piece is too sharp. On the other shoe, one side of the closure doesn't actually hold the lace, so it slips loose.
