Customer Reviews Bogs Classic High

Love the boots but the size is smaller than average. I’ve always worn an 8 in Uggs, this 8.5 was to tight. I had to return them and order a size 9. Now it’s taking 7 days to get a new pair a half size bigger. Zappos used to always have my orders delivered within 2 days. Not sure why these are taking 7 days?? The snow will be gone by the time I get my new boots. Next time I’ll probably just go through Ugg.com.

These boots are very heavy, so returning them.

About average

I wear a Men's size 11. Unlike most boots I have tried, I found these to be on the small size in terms of length - at least 1/2 size short. They were plenty wide for me, even with two pairs of socks on. Couldn't really evaluate walking around comfort, since my toes were jammed up against the end of the boot. Was also looking for a little more shaft height than this model provides, for wading creeks. Ended up returning them.

So these boots were warm and waterproof, however for the price point, I would have expected them to last more then 2 winters in the PNW. The outside is cracking in two places comprising the waterproof exterior and warmth. So I would buy again, but I am disappointment at the price point for something that didn’t last..

I bought these locally b/c I was tired of ordering Bogs and having a defect, either one boot larger than the other, or they leaked! This way I could return them easier if there was any problem. (I don't know what's up with Bogs and their quality control lately, but some of their boots were one boot larger than the other, or they leaked!) At any rate, these I really liked at first, b/c the shaft fit close to my skinnier legs, and they were warm: if my feet were warm and I put them on in the house with my feet warmed up first before going outside. But - If my feet were cold when I put the boots on, I found they would stay cold outside, but if I let my feet warm up while inside first, then they stayed warm outside. I wear 8.5 to 9, and tried on the 8's and they fit in the width, but my toes ran into the end of the boots. The 9's fit in the length but a bit wide in the front part of the boot, b/c it is rounder. This was fixed with thick socks. But they run tight in the arch, which keeps your foot in place and your foot does not slip inside the boot, but because of this I could not wear even a thin comfort insole to help with the fit b/c then the arch was too tight. I wanted to see if they would be warmer with boot socks and they were, it was wonderful! But then the darned arch was too tight! And I do not have high arches. With the fit problems, I then noticed the right boot was slightly larger than the left, enough that it was noticeable when looking at them, and one boot fit better than the other. Then to top it all off I came home with mud on them, and rinsed them off in the tub, careful to not get any water into the tops of the boots. And did the waterproof test: I felt the inside of the boots - the heel portion of the boots was quite damp on one boot, and the toes partially damp, noticeable enough to feel. I was confounded that this happened with yet another pair of Bogs! This had happened with the Plimsol style, the Classic style, the Camo style, and now with the Classic High style. 4 times I had to return Bogs boots that I really liked well enough to keep, b/c of these problems!!! Augh! So while I really like the look of Bogs, the comfort, sturdiness, and thick rubber soles good for traction, and that they "look" waterproof, I wish they had better quality control because they would be really nice winter boots if they did!

The first pair of 15 medium had a problem with being too narrow in the ankle arrow and too snug just with the left boot, but not for the right. I ordered a 2nd pair and the left boot was fine this time so I think somehow they have deviations in their manufacturing. If it doesnt feel right return it and try a second pair, especially if one of them is not the same as the other. I would have given this a 5 if it hadn't been for this manufacturing deviation.

Surprised by the fit on this boot. I normally wear an 11 in an athletic shoe, and an 11 in a boot is usually plenty large. But this boot, although marked an 11, fit like a 10 - my toes were up against the toe of the boot. Nicely constructed boot, felt well made. I think a 12 would be too sloppy on me, so had to return these and will try another BOGS model to see if this fit was typical of the brand.

Ordered for my 14 year-old son. Just ran a little too short. Order up!
