Customer Reviews Bogs Classic Ultra Mid

Im done with leather and trying to find a stitched TRULY waterproof boot. So I was excited to try these. I'm usually a size 10. I tried size 9, 10, and 11. In every size my heel lifted up with every step like I was wearing Flip-flops. I don't know how anyone could tolerate walking around and working in these all day with such a loose fit. I suppose this is what makes them slide on and off easily, but if I cant work in them they are useless to me. I like the style, but they just didnt fit. They probably are warm and waterproof, but I will never know. Disappointed.

They are very comfortable and warm. They were warmer than my Sorel winter boots, even when wet. Easy to take off and put on when wet. They WILL get wet. I do a lot of outdoor stuff. Getting firewood, dog mushing, hiking, boating, fishing and hunting in dry, wet, cold and hot conditions. Tundra, swamp, mountaint, city, gravel, all of it. All kinds of weather conditions. I wore these boots almost every day over all kinds of terrain for half a year before they got their first leaks. They would be great for occasional use, but they are not good for constant working. The rubber wore out first on the top curve where my ankle meets my shin, then the heels went, then along the edges. I might as well be walking through the swamp in my sneakers. I threw them out today and I'm buying myself some sturdy mucks or something that's MEANT to be abused. If you want something trendy and stylish, comfortable and warm to wear occasionally, this is a good pair, but if you are working outdoors a lot, get something else.

I am a size 7 and 1/2...the 8's were way too tight. I returned them for a size 9. The size 9 fits fine but they don't keep my feet warm at all. I am pretty disappointed. They promise -40 and I can hardly go out of the house at any temperature and have my feet stay warm.

These were great out of the box--everything I wanted and more than expected. If only they would have lasted. I have had the same trouble with all the Bogs I have gotten--none have lasted more than 3-4 months of moderate wear. They start to crack along the seams. I have not had this trouble with other, similar brand-name boots. Very disappointing.

I bought my boots to wear. Although they are super comfortable, the bottom of the sole wore out within 5 weeks. It made for a very slippery boot in the water, even worse on ice. I live where it is cold and snowy. The boots are not as warm as you would think, but most winter boots do not live up to thier ratings. They would be the best boots ever if the tread hadn't worn so fast.

These boots would have been great except that the plastic cracked and split open just above the big toe area on both boots. I had only been wearing them a month when the cracks started (and only for walking the dog and riding my bicycle to work in the rain). Now, 6 months later, the cracks are huge and gaping and the boots are no longer waterproof. I am pretty disappointed. These boots cost 5 times what I spent on my last pair of rainboots, and those boots lasted longer.

I've been searching for a boot that keeps my feet warm and dry in winter that have at least a little style (i.e. could be worn both with casual and more formal wear), so I thought I'd give these a try. The boots kept my legs nice and warm, but my toes were absolutely freezing in -20 weather (the boots are rated for -40)... much worse than my previous pair that was only rated for -20!!! I think it was all the extra roominess in the toe area of the boot that allowed cold air to circulate. I only wore them once and I'm taking them back. If you're looking for a sturdy boot to keep to dry in mild (slushy) winter weather, then go for it, otherwise don't bother.

I have bogs from some years ago and they fit very well and worked great. These new ones were supposedly the same size but they turn out to be a lot smaller, not comfortable at all. Will be returning.

Bad customer service. Boots were worn a few times a week for four months during the summer in Alaska. They still look brand new. Then they were stored inside. This summer when I put them on they leaked. The seam is not the issue it's leaking from the top of the boot above my foot. The warranty expired one month before I contacted Bogs and they would not refund me. This is the second pair of boots I've purchased that have leaked. I will not buy anything from this company again.

Your boots used to be great. Now the circumference of the ankel and top opening would necessitate me doubling my body weight! So wide the ankles make me trip and the top so open that when irrigating my fields I have to dump the wheat out of the boots. FIRE your designers

despite your size chart recommendations, size 10 was still a bit too big, and the heel slips. Size 9 would be too tight,, incidentally, my wife Amy had the same problem, had to send hers back twice. Also i had problems with the "postage free return", had to pay $25 to send back. I ended up buying a pair of Muck boots.

How does bogs not make the most common size for women? The 8 is tight and the 9 is floppy. Would love these boots otherwise.

I've worn Bogs winter boots for years (daughter too). Last year I bought a new pair of classic tall, took them on holiday trip to Portland per usual. After an hour hike up Mt. Tabor, the skin on my right front shin had been worn off and walking became painful. After bandaids, then moleskin, same. I studied the boots, and realized that with the new taller rubber shaft, the boot upper was stiffer and did not "give" when I walked. Very sad, I've LOVED these boots, but literally cannot wear them anymore. Just be aware.

These boots are super slippery. NOT safe for icy conditions. First day out in them I slipped and fell. Not winter boots!

Bought these to replace my original 10 year old Bogs, which were the most perfect boots ever. Same size but my big toe rubs on these. Calf too wide, stuff falls down into the foot. It also hits the back of my calves, leaving red marks. Knitted boot toppers to address the problems when I wear breeches but when I wear jeans and just want to tuck them in, I have to suffer through.

Not worth the money. Very flimsy

I had to return this boot because the heel curves in and rubs the back of my ankle. I have two other pairs of Boggs that I absolutely love! I was hoping to love the wide calf but did not.

Was really disappointed. The boot hits several inches below the knee and I am not a tall person. And the opening is too wide. Both unattractive think Puss & Boots and not practical for walking in fields where bugs, straw can fall into the boot. I called and it seems they have redesigned the classic boot.

Did not like the way they look on me. They run HUGE. Returned them for the same size in the "Bogs snownight" boots. My new boots fit perfect.

Not 17 inches in circumference as advertised! Only 15 inches measuring from the out side! These are a Christmas gift for my daughter but I doubt they are going to fit since they are 2 inches smaller than what the description gives - so very disappointing! I bought eight (8) pairs of these boots this year for family members for Christmas - hopefully the others are as described. I bought because the ones I bought my husband last year are great and warm. I recommend the web site be updated with accurate information! I would not recommend for someone looking for wide calf - can't explain how frustrated and disappointed I am.

I don't know, Bogs. It's -5 C out, I am wearing wool socks and my toes are still cold in these boots. They were cold for most of past winter in these boots as well. And I live in frigid temperatures. Seriously shopping for a warmer pair of boots now because I don't want to spend another winter having to resort to toe warmers to feel comfortable.

I'm very distressed about THIS pair of bogs I received. I've worn Bogs for 10 years (that's how long my first pair lasted!!) but this pair seemed "short" for the size 9 that I ordered and received. (My all-time standard size I've worn for 25 years...and the same size as my last identical pair of bogs boots) Thinking they would be the same....I cut the tags off and began to wear them without realizing the right boot seems smaller than the left boot. The odd thing is...ACTUALLY my left foot is a half size LARGER than my right. There's the proof that the boots are not cut the same. I can't wear them due to getting a blister on my large toe due to the rubbing from the boot. I'm so disappointed.

The boot leaked across the front terribly. I thought it may have been a lemon pair because I have always purchased Bogs. I sent them back and the second pair leaked as well. It appears it leaks on the top of the boot around the steel toe. Would I purchase from Bogs again? Absolutely! I think there may be a flaw in the sealant, maybe? I don't know but I hope Bogs can figure it out. My husband loved this boot! He needs steel toe water boots so I'm back in the market.
