Super cute boots! I actually ended up ordering these directly from Columbia because Zappos didn’t have my size (12). These fit well and are fairly easy to slip on. I bought them for general winter running around, so I added some extra spray-on waterproofing for snow/rain protection. So far, they’re really comfortable, warm, and cute with jeans!

I was looking for a slip-on boot for short trips out with my dogs. It is difficult to find slip-ons that are suitable for narrow feet like mine. These are great. They stay on my feet without slipping around and I can get them on and off quickly.

This is my first winter boot purchase and I really like these boots. I wanted something that was comfortable, warm, and wet weather proof - good traction. I think that these shoes definitely apply, at least so far for warmth and rain. I am anxious to see how they hold up in the snow, although it tends to be pretty mild snow here. They are not really fashion forward, but I think that they are cute in a simplistic way. They are definitely casual boots.

Comfort, warmth, and support. These boots have it all. The only negative is they are sometimes difficult to pull off with the only opening being the corded back. After a few wearings, they loosen up, and it is no longer an issue. So, I love these boots now, and wear them in Upstate New York where they are tested fully! What more can you say about Zappos?! Order at nine o'clock in the evening, at my door the next afternoon! Wow! Plus the Customer Service Rep helped me decide based on what I told her. She was awesome. Thanks Zappos. The Best on the Net.

These boots are really cute but if you have a high arch and instep, choose another style. I couldn't even get my foot into them. It's sad, but true.

These boots are very cute, they are shades of gray and black with purple. I liked them except they were very hard to get on and the strap at the back was hard to reach. I would have kept them if they were easier to pull on, but sent them back seeing myself struggling with them every time I had to wear them!

These are cute and relatively lightweight, however, the shaft is very narrow, and I couldn’t even come close to getting my size 12 foot with a high arch through the shaft into the boot. Too bad, really.

Warm and comfy! Great for rain and snow. Took a few tries to get used to getting in and out of them with the drawstrings, but I appreciate that they help to make the boots even warmer and drier! The sneaker-like soles make me much more agile than regular snow boots and are really comfortable to walk in.

Orange is one of my favorite colors and I love this color combo. How cool that Columbia sells boots for us size 12 ladies! Unfortunately, I have flat feet (over-pronate) and these boots felt like my feet were falling inward. I also had a difficult time putting them on. I spend a lot of time trying on and sending back. I’m just glad Zappos makes that process so easy. Back to the drawing board.

These boots are super cute and very comfy. I read the other reviews prior to purchasing and wondered about the problem others had getting the boot on. My feet are very narrow so I did not have a problem. I can see how there could be an issue for others. These boots have a more streamlined look compared to other Columbia boots. That’s a good thing for my size feet. I hadn’t already gone wild with boot purchases this season, I would consider buying these in an additional color. For now, the aqua blue trim on these is perfect. As always, Zappos came through with the speediest shipping ever.

I was looking for an inexpensive pair of jeans to wear and probably ruin while working in the studio. These are perfect. I have narrow hips and have hard time finding pants that fit. Although they stretch out within a short time of putting them on, they fill my need for something inexpensive and okay to wear in public.
