Unfortunately mine cracked at that bendy part on the top of the foot after only three season and Bogs will not do any thing about it. Waste of $100 or more

The Classic High boot was a huge disappointment after owning the Whiteout Tonal Camo. I am an 8.5 shoe and ordered a 9 in both styles. The Whiteout was perfect & roomy for an extra pair of socks. The Classic High footbed was not. The seam up the back inside the boot was rough and hurt my heels. Overall, a disaster. I am a horsewoman and really put boots to the test. I would not recommend. The Whiteout line is a better investment hands down.

I owned a previous version of Bogs boots that worked really well for me... they fit well and lasted me for several years. When the old boots finally became to worn to wear, I order a new pair - the Classic Ultra Mid boot. I'm not sure what changed, but I am really disappointed in the new boots. They do not fit well. I am between sizes, and the larger size was sloppily too big and the smaller size is too snug; at least the smaller size stay on my feet. I think part of the fit issue is the way the heel fits inside the boot. The heel seems to roomy and so does not seem to keep my foot in the boot. Even the smaller size is sloppy in the heel while being too snug in the toe box. I imagine it's difficult to create a slip on boot that allows room for sliding a foot in and out easily and creating a comfortable fit, but the previous pair of Bogs that I owned seem to find that balance. These Classic Ultra Mid boots are just too sloppy for me. Also, after wearing the new boots for a few times over a couple of months, they developed a leak along a seam in the toe box. The timing of when I discovered the leak was within the allowed exchange period, so Bogs allowed me to return the leaking boots for a new pair of the same style, which I appreciate. However, afterward I began questioning the quality of the construction. I have yet to see how long the new pair will hold up.
With the ill-fitting style and the leak, I'm disappointed in these boots. I hope Bogs will redesign this type of boot for a better fit and with higher quality construction.

They are rated for -40 today was the first day since I got them that the temp got below 0. I was outside for about 5 minutes and my feet were already cold. They do keep my feet dry through the snow and slush. unfortunately the bottom tread has started to peel off already.

High recommendations for BOGS. These boots were too narrow for me. Needed wide calf.

Love the colors but the boot itself rubs my heel too much. Can only wear for short distances. Also, wish I would have known that the calf part is so tight. Would have loved to be able to tuck my pants down into them to keep from getting snow on them.

Loved them when I first got them. After 2-3 wears that padding wore out and now they are way to big but I can't even exchange them due to their policy.

I specifically chose these boots as I wanted a pair of bogs where the rubber went higher up. I had bought the navy green white out boots two years ago and they had started to sag down around the ankle area just above where the rubber stops. Unfortunately these new boots are a bit of a let down. The rubber is significantly harder and stiffer than my previous pair (this is blatantly obvious when you touch and compare the two) and as such after about 15-20 mins my ankles start to hurt from the pressure cause by the stiffness as well as some discomfort on the top of the foot. I even compared these new boots to a pair a family member has where the rubber goes higher up (The Mesa Winter marble boots) and the rubber is not nearly as stiff as my new ones. It's too late to return or exchange them so I plan on keeping them as a back up pair, but may just buy the white out boots again. They did last a long time and were far more comfortable. Keep this in mind when shopping. Really the only positive I found is the wide calf design is nice and gives a bit more room for bulky pants or socks.

I had a four year old pair of these Bogs that were perfect for getting through mud at the barn. They finally started cracking so needed to replace. I ordered same size/style only to find out they are now sized smaller. Ordered up a size so foot fits but now Bogs are cut in at the top so you cannot tuck jeans into them and they literally cut into your leg. Why do they have them flare in at the top? I have to return and now have nothing to replace my wonderful old high Bogs with. Very disappointed with this boot.

Not at all happy with these. I've had a pair of Classic Cosmos for around 10 years now, and they really are the perfect boot for gardening, fishing, everything. But these? The second I put them on, I was disappointed. Gone is the nice, snug fit all the way up and the sleeker look. These are like....Herman Munster boots. They're big and clumsy, and the boot shaft is so large, there's a huge gap between the back of the boot and my calf. I can't imagine clodhopping around in these at all. I've been out in absolute downpours with my old pair, and the only part of me that's dry is a perfect outline of the boots. But this new pair has such a gap that water would run right down inside of them. The few steps I took with one of these on, it flopped against the back of my leg. I'm going to see if maybe my daughter will want them. If not, I'll be returning them.

While my old Bogs - classic Cosmos high with handles - are still my everyday go-to boots for everything after the better part of 10 years, I wanted to get another pair because of the fit, quality, and performance of my other pair. What happened? These are like Herman Munster boots & gone is the nice, snug fit all the way up. I have an almost 2" gap between the back of this new pair & my calf, & I have pretty muscular calves. I was very disappointed with these, and am hoping I can figure out if they still make one with the identical fit of my old pair. As a florist who grows hundreds of her own flowers every year, I can't imagine clodhopping around in these & having the back of the boot flop against the back of my leg all day. My old pair, I've been out in a downpour and the only part of me that stays dry is a perfect outline of the boots. But this new pair leaves such a gap that water would pool inside of them. I'll see if my daughter wants them; if not, I'll be returning them.

The boots are awesome and feel awesome in the foot, although a little wide in the foot (that's OK; leaves room for bulky socks.) Unfortunately the size around the top (inside of boot) was 2" larger in circumference than my calf. Customer service told me that the calf circumference specs are 15". I believe this spec is in error, as my calf circumference is 15" at point of top of boot.

I bought a pair of the classic ultra high boots a few years ago and they were perfect - better traction and foot support than normal Bogs, fit great, and held up for multiple years of farm work. When they finally died this spring, I bought these, but discovered the design has changed: now the rubber comes up significantly higher on the boot. While I understand the reasoning behind this (my previous boots wore out at the ankles where the rubber meets the neoprene), the new design were simply not comfortable for me at all - they rubbed on my ankles just walking around the house. I sadly had to return them.

I have 4 pair of ladies BOGs purchased 6-12 yrs ago. Love them, live in them when working outside in the yard, and even running errands in wet weather. Wear my old classic highhandles in the middle of winter and my toes have room to spread out and thus stay warm. Both the shorter boot and the classic high handle have been reconfigured in the ladies boots - the toe box is distinctly tapered torpedo style at the end and now they are very uncomfortable. I have sensitive feet and any pressure on the sides creating scrunching of the toes just causes pain. So, purchased a men's version of the classic high and it works thank goodness, but it definitely looks like a farm boot. Not so good for looking stylish while out and about. A shame. Why not at least offer wide?

I really wanted to like these boots but the back portion (where the two different fabrics meet) keep digging into my calves and bruised them.

Very disappointed! I have had for less than three months and I already have a stress crack on top. Spent the money for "good" boots that I thought would last. Obviously not the case.

I ordered my bogs and got the wide calf.. They appeared to be regular calf, so they were to small for me. I gave them to my daughter and she loves them.. I was disappointed but she was thrilled! Great boots for calving season!

Too heavy and clunky. I have the ankle high Bogs rainbow and loved them. Waterproof, comfortable, perfect for walking my dog on rainy or muddy days. But these were just not what I was looking for.

I have strong athletic legs with big calfs so naturally I would want to order a wide calf boot. The size is very true to side and the calf width is perfect EXCEPT that this width extends down to just above the ankle so I have a boot that fits perfectly on the foot and at the calf with this AWKWARD large space between my calf and ankle. The only people this boot will fit perfect for are those whose leg is 17" wide from the ankle to the calf. I'm going to sacrifice the wide calf boot (meaning they will always have to be worn under the pant) in order to have a boot that is comfortable walking around in and serving a functional purpose.

I found this boot to fall short of my expectations. Considering I'm a US W 8.5, the 9 felt oddly short in the footbed. The shaft of the boot didn't flatter or comfort the curve of my calf. I like the look of the boot itself - it's sporty and solid - just not for me. Fortunately, I had ordered the Whiteout Fleck for comparison. The Whiteout Fleck was a total win. It's more of a 'looker' for town errands and social activities, but appropriate for winter sporting and mucking about, too.
