Overall:

These are sturdy, comfortable, roomy -- though they are not as warm as my sheepskin boots (which are not suitable for snowshoeing, the reason for buying another pair). They do appear to be waterproof, have good traction. My husband has the heavier, -65 Bugaboot and says his feet always stay warm. If warmth is a big concern, I would get those.

I love this site! I love the fact that I can order shoes and if they don't fit, can be returned for FREE! I haven't had to return any shoes but its really nice to know that I can if I had to. Super fast shipping! I recommend this site to everyone I know all the time!

When I chose this pair I had 5 boots from Zappos to try on. I only needed one pair but liked these so much I kept a second. They are a good looking boot and made for wide feet like mine. There is some great tread on the soles. A little much for trying to fit into my snow shoes, so I'll use a different pair for that. The zip is nice and easy to slip the boots on and off. Great boots. Highly recommend. So comfortable.

Overall:

I bought these for our impending El Nino rainy season, and I'm so glad I did. They DO seem to run pretty small. Normally I am a size 9, but I ended up ordering a size 10 which fit perfectly. I wear them with fairly thick socks. Somehow they make your feet seem smaller...amazing, since they looked rather clunky in the photos. Super comfy and toasty warm. Great traction, although it took awhile to realize that the tip of the toe part seems slippery, so I kept thinking I was going to slip in them until I realized that the entire rest of the sole is completely secure and grips just great on any wet surface. One review said the zipper falls down, but I just make sure that the zipper tab is securely in the down position after zipping up. The one time the tab came down I didn't even notice because the shoe is so secure on your foot. You will love these. Enjoy stomping through puddles! I LOVE Columbia shoes. I am 55 and have developed various foot pains, including that the cushioned fat pads on the balls of my feet seemed to have disappeared (I suspect they migrated to my hips), leaving me feeling like I am crushing bones on nerves when I walk. All of Columbia\'s shoes solve this problem for me. For added comfort, I usually swap their insoles with The Walking Company\'s signature insoles. The Bugazip didn't require different insoles.

I bought these boots for a trip up north to play in the snow, and they worked great. They kept my feet very warm, provided a good amount of traction in the snow, and still felt very comfortable at the end of the day. I ordered the next size up to accommodate a thicker sock.

Overall:

The Columbia Bugacross is a lightweight, comfortable hiking shoe that provides very good protection from the elements (light snow/rain) on the sides and front. It has form fitting comfort akin to a driving glove, a very stylish look for work or play. Definitely not a winter boot for the more snowy regions of the USA. Laces up easily and just as easy to take off. Colors are true to the pictures presented. A little pricey but oh so comfortable.

I love these boots, true to size. I had another pair of Columbia boots and wore them for ten years. This year they had a hole and I though Id never find another pair like them--not so these boots are just as good in snow and good traction on slippery roads. We have A GSD who needs to be walked every day. The boots are perfect...

Overall:

Good shoe. I wear a size 12 and I’m sticking with the size 12 I got... there’s room for thicker socks if needed. It’s got good ankle support which is important when walking on ice. The height of the boot makes it feel a little funny when walking, it kinda digs into my calf, but it doesn’t hurt or anything, it’s just going to take some getting used to after months of wearing (non-waterproof) Uggs. I’m sure they will soften up the more I wear them.

Hiked Mount Adams this past weekend (1/23-24/2010) wearing this boot. Good points - warm, dry and rugged. Design held crampons well and lace system is good. Bad - the foot bed is awfully uncomfortable. After several miles and elevation gain with a 40lb pack, each step hurt. Tried different layering of socks and changed original foam foot liner to volcano and still no improvement. Conclusion -This is not a good shoe for serious hiking. It is good for clearing snow off the driveway and a short, leisurely walk in foul weather conditions.

Great boot so far. Worn it a couple times in Wisconsin’s snow/slush and my feet were kept warm and dry. The tallness of them makes them rub against your leg a little bit like rollerblades do, but they aren’t uncomfortable. Overall, I feel confident that I purchased a great product that is durable, good looking, and will last a long time. I’d recommend these to a friend, and can’t wait to get some more use out of them.

To start, I was shocked that these boots ordered late a few days before Christmas arrived the next morning. What a wonderful surprise and gift. These are truly the cutest and warmest boots that I have ever purchased. I read the other reviews and listened to the recommendation to buy a half size larger. Glad that I did as the zipper does not allow for a generous opening. They started out a bit tight and I wore thin stockings and had no problems. They are so warm, I doubt you need stockings. So far they have been through very cold and very wet. I, however, have remained warm and dry.

I love these shoes. I tried and sent back a lot of shoes before I found these. I needed something comfortable and warm that could maneuver over snow and ice patches. These fit the bill. They are attractive as well. I wear them everyday (winter). I love the furry lined Merrells, but they are worthless on slippery surfaces.

I love my Columbia Bailey shoes. I usually wear a narrow shoe so was reluctant to order, sure glad I did. I wear a size 11 and fit well. I would order more Columbia shoes if available.

They look cute... but none of the reviews mentioned anything about the weird crunchy sound they make. Like they’re made out of something you would make a dog toy out of. They look like a shoe that somebody attached a crunchy sleeve to. Just being honest. I have to say though, even though I’m returning them, I’ll have to look at more Columbia products, because they are super comfortable.

Overall:

Comfortable and Fashionable - These are very comfortable flip-flops! I can feel the cushion in every step. I also love that they are not the typical flip-flop design - they are a bit more dressy casual. That means I can wear them in more situations and not worry that my shoes look sloppy or too casual. Also, if you are a half size, order a size down. I wear 9 1/2 and sometimes a 10 in athletic shoes, but a 9 in these shoes fits great.

I purchased these boots for my husband before he left for cold Germany this winter. He definitely had a chance to test it with extreme challenging weather; snow and minus temperature. Worked in the city as well as in the mountains. He especially loved how easy it was to slip it on and slip out of it. Even when he got back to LA he kept wearing it in the rain due to it being water-proof, and he loves its warm coziness.

Overall:

After years of searching for a cute, supportive walking shoe to wear with my work clothes when I go out for a walk at lunch, I finally found these, and I think they saved my feet! I walk three miles each day, and have done serious damage in the past wearing the "wrong" shoes. I have been through DOZENS of pairs up till now, but couldn’t find anything as cute and low-profile as it was comfortable and supportive. These have FIRM soles, which are ideal for me, and the sides are high so your foot stays in and has the right support. The only drawback on these is that the suede/leather is a little stiff at first - I made the mistake of wearing them without socks before they had loosened up and wore off a bit of skin.
