Comfortable, stylish, durable! I live in upstate NY and these boots can survive our winters. The lace-up style fits all ankle/shin sizes. I love that they don't require any water proofing as well. I was also amazed at Zappos' kind and personalized customer service. My recommendation? Buy them.

I live in Alaska and these boots are the nicest that I have owned. They are just high enough, stay dry in snow and slush and are toasty warm. I have a high instep and the laces allow even my feet to be comfortable. I have only worn them this past weekend and received several compliments already! I did order half a size larger so I could wear my wool socks but I think I could have ordered my normal size and been fine.

After spending tons of time looking for quality winter boots to hold up in Midwest winters AND something cute - I finally found these! It hasn't started snowing yet so I don't have winter experience yet. However, when I first tried them on they were SO warm. And they are very comfortable and quality which is hard to find for a decent price. They are still cute enough to wear once you are inside. I like the grey color because they will go with everything. If you have a range in your shoe size I would order the larger range. Love these! I feel very prepared for winter.

I have been looking for a winter walking boot for a while and ordered this one based on the reviews and the price. I am a size 8 and I ordered an 8 1/2 because I always go up a 1/2 size in boots to wear a heavy sock. I am pleased with the fit and they are very comfortable. They are warm and have good tread on the bottom. I live in WI and walk all year long. I would recommend these boots.

I searched high and low for a boot that was practical and warm, as well as safe for the Alaskan winter and these are a true gem. I wear normally a Australian 7 or a USA 7.5 or 8, I took the risk and ordered the 7.5 and they fit snug with thick socks. I would buy these again definitely.

Cute, comfortable and well worth the price. I had tried at least a dozen boots and 6 or so brands at stores in person. Nobody had these. They are exactly what I was looking for. I will definitely add arch support insoles in them but otherwise they are perfect. They really run small, however. I'm technically a 7.5 on the Brannock but I typically wear an 8.5 or 9 to accommodate my high instep and wider foot. I ended up with a 9.5 in these and they are not too long. In fact they are barely long enough - just right. And they are plenty roomy in width when I normally buy "W" if I can.

I live in MA, and I was looking for a warm, comfortable, stylish snow boot. After reading the great reviews, I had to order them. They fit perfectly, I purchased a 8.5 and I sometimes wear 8.5 and 9. The 8.5 was great, even has a room with a thick sock and room to tuck snow pants in. I can wear them all day, my feet are so cozy. They are soft inside, easy to slip in and out of, just the right amount of arch support (I have an average arch), they are great in the snow and ice, skid free. The coldest I have worn them is low teens while at the ski slopes, standing outside. My feet never felt warmer. Not too clunky either. I love them, highly recommended!

I love these boots! I wore them two days in a row to work all day for the very first time. There was no need for a "breaking in" period and they were so warm! I didn't even wear thick socks with them and they were great! They looked cute with my jeans and a skirt, too. My foot tends to run wide through the toe box and these did not pinch my pinky toes!

I have looked a lot for a cute, versital,comfortable cold weather boot, and this is it for me. I have trouble with many boots being sloppy. These have laces that are easy to adjust the fit. The foot-bed is very cushy and comfortable. These are well-made boots.

I love these boots! Not only are they cute, but I recently wore them to a very cold, windy, and wet football game. After 3 hours, my feet were the only part of me that were warm and dry! Better yet, they were comfortable right out of the box!

Like the style if these a lot however they are not good to wear if you have a high arch. They are extremely flat and even regarding the sole. No arch support, etc. But very cute, which is why I gave it 4 stars.
