Customer Reviews Columbia Bugaboot™

These boot feel tight in the toe. Another reviewer said the boot liner was too tight, and I agree. They also do not flex very well when you walk due to the amount of rubber in the sole. I ordered a pair of North Face for more from Zappos and they are way more comfortable. The boots do look nice in person.

I wear a 15EEEE in New Balance and these 15EE were a little short and a little narrow. I like the look and construction so I will try the 16EE next.

I really like the boot; I wished I could have kept it. Unfortunately, it ran small and VERY narrow. I was tempted to get a half size larger, but the fact it ran so narrow I didn't bother. Overall it seems like it would be a decent boot, but it is extremely narrow. I never have purchased a wide shoe in my life and standard width from most brands fit me fine.

Great looking boot, but the fit was not comfortable. Sizing seems to run small, I went a full size up and still not comfortable.

I read the reviews and they said that the boot ran a little small. I ordered my normal size, and they were a little too small, so I am returning them.

I live in Jackson Hole and needed a warm rugged boot. The traction is great, tall enough boot but not that warm. Toes were always cold. The worst part is after 1 1/2 winters all the eyelets either torn or are half way torn. It cost some money an eyelet to get fixed. I called Columbia and they keep repeating on the phone and in emails that the warranty has expired, and I'm the one that told them that from the start. They could not even tell me if they could fix them. Said it would take a few months. I can't have them busting on me when snowshoeing. Now I did use them a lot but they should have lasted longer. So I trashed them and bought North Face. They fix everything for free no matter how long you own it. No questions asked.

These shoes seem well made but under the pad of the foot it is very hard and uncomfortable. I tried them for a few days but my feet hurt too much to try again. They are a waste of money.

Very comfortable boot! But they have a serious flaw with construction. I've had them about 2 months. When bending down or kneeling, the straps that hold the laces break! They broke the first week I wore them, and have been steadily breaking to the point I have to buy a different pair. Make sure to pass on these-they are a waste of money.

My husband tried three pairs of the Columbia Bugaboot. Following the fitting guide, we ordered an 11 wide. The boots were enormous and we returned them for a smaller size. The 10.5 medium was sized completely differently and was too small. Our last attempt was with an 11 medium, which sadly did not fit correctly either. Too bad, because it is a nice looking boot and seems well made. We have moved on to another brand that fits my husband's feet properly.
