I wore these once on a cold snap and they were warm but a little flat footed and stiff. I could see these being helpful in the snow. I bought these because they cover more of my foot than my other boots but still may reach for my Danners if I am walking a lot.

Shoe is warm and comfortable however does not have arch support, needed to add one. After looking at reviews, ordered a size larger and was glad I did, they run small

boots are extremely difficult to get on and off until you wear them in and if you don't get snow where you live, you're not going to wear them in.

I read the reviews before I purchased but realized after receiving the merchandise the reviews were not very helpful. I wanted these boots because they look really good, don't have zippers or require shoestrings allowing you to put on and remove easily and are supposed to be waterproof (I cannot speak to this feature because it has not been tested). This boot runs a bit small. I usually wear 8-81/2 in boots and needed a 9 for this boot. The footbed has no support and the heel drops significantly. Both of these issues can be corrected with an insert which makes the boot considerably more comfortable.

The boots are great, they just don't have enough tread for my needs. Regretfully I have to return them.

I got these boots for our trip to Minnesota. This is my first pair of winter boots. It was -7 while we were there and I never worried about my feet. My only 'complaint' is that they come up pretty high (almost up to my knees- i am 4'11). Any future pair I would buy I would opt for something shorter because I tend to sit criss crossed and it was just a bit too tall and bulky for that. But it did it's job well and was at a good price.

Great boot, only problem is with the lack of coverage by the laces, you just have the leather to keep you warm.

Everyone said to size up, but I did not find that to be true. For me, ordering my regular size would have been best. I went up 1/2 a size and I regret it. They are comfy and warm, but not as comfy as other brands I've had. If you can find them on sale, go for it.

The boots are very comfortable and light considering the style (I was afraid they would be too stiff and heavy, but the are not). However, they do come off a bit on the heel and I am afraid that the fiction could cause pain as you walk around, so I will have to return. I did not care for the fur on top, I thought that was a bit too much - but this is certainly personal.

This is my first pair of snow boots, and at first I wasn't sure they were going to work out. Super cute, but the lining on the right foot was a touch snug. It also sort of felt like I'd been given two lefts. Having large feet (12 in women's) makes finding a good fit difficult, and I was worried I'd have to exchange for men's. After taking some time to break them in, I am happy to say things have adjusted and I'm in love. Definitely not for situations that require precise fo and a bit clumsy, but that more or less describes me to a T so it works.

I have flat feet and these didn’t feel like they would give me the support I need for extended wear throughout the day.

I returned because it was too small. Reordered a 7.5, I usually wear a 7 but was a little nervous about getting the 8... The boot was warm, felt great and I liked the sheepskin liner as opposed to all the fluffy ones. I would feel better if I received the notice stating they acknowledge my return...

Love the look. I had to send them back twice before. They run very small. Still a bit tight at 1.5 sizes up, but will make them work! They are pretty!

The boots are attractive and warm, but are a little stiffer than I expected. Maybe they will relax with wear. Reviews said they run big but I think they are true to size. I would have gotten a little bigger if I had known. Overall satisfied with the boots.

Good fit, but it's hard to get your feet into them, especially if you have a high in-step like me.

Reviews said it ran small - wish I'd have listened. They were snug. Returned -- no exchanges and they charged for the return! I bought again and sized up. I'm swimming in them but going to just thicken my socks. So the sizing is inconsistent, I've decided. They were on sale so I'll just keep. If I'd paid retail, they'd have gone back. Yep, another fee. I'm spoiled with Prime :)

Very happy with these boots, I ordered my regular size and they fit, you have to unlace them to get them off better.

I bought a size 10, my normal shoe size, but they’re too small. Wanted to exchange them for 10-1/2 but none available. They’re an amazing pair of boots, really well made, so I’m disappointed that the 10-1/2 are sold out. If not for the size issue, I would give them 5 stars.
