Customer Reviews Columbia Minx™ Mid II Omni-Heat™

I just love these warm snow boots. Very light and good on ice or deep snow. I did have to order half a size bigger than normal. They are also very cute.

I really like this boot. Warm, looks good, waterproof, and the sole is flexible enough that you don't feel like you're walking around on blocks. I was able to jog with my dog in the snow in these. I ordered a half size up and they fit nicely with the usual slightly thicker sock. We actually liked this boot so much that we ordered a second pair for my wife.

I ordered these boots a couple days before the East Coast blizzard. They arrived just in time and I LOVE them! They are very comfortable - since they lace up, I can pull them snug around my legs - and also warm! I was out in the snow all day and my feet did not get cold. I usually wear a 5-1/2 or 6 shoe. I bought these in the 6 to make room for thick socks (which might not even be needed) and they fit great.

I love these boots. My feet were warm out shoveling and snow blowing in below zero weather for two hours. I have not had them out in sloppy/wet conditions but they kept my feet dry in the snow. The bottom seems thin which is probably what makes them comfortable and light. I hope it does not wear out. I am used to the heavy snowmobile type boot. These so far are a much better alternative. With the quilting they kind of look like bedroom slippers from the top - still not sure if that makes them cute or not so cute but I like them enough for other reasons, it does not matter.

I love these! They are the coziest boots that I have ever had. They are very warm without being sweaty (I have rarely experienced my feet being too warm). They are lightweight, almost like casual sneakers or ballet flats. I am sure they will not last for decades like a solid pair of mucky ducks but the comfort and warmth, for me, outweighs the question of durability for daily wear and so far, they have worn well. I have only had them a few weeks but I have put them through their paces in Northern Michigan blizzards, salt, ice, and even a bit of rain. They are water resistant as well. I can wear them all day at work in my office too. They look cute with jeans or leggings or tights and a skirt.

I am someone who gets cold very easily and knew that I needed some snow boots for the blizzard that's hitting the East Coast, as we speak. I wanted snow boots that kept my feet dry, kept my feet toasty warm, were easy to walk in (rather than the usual stiff, heavy snow boots), had decent tread so that I don't fall, and were reasonably stylish. These boots arrived the day before the blizzard started and I was very pleased. They are made very well. The fur is just the right amount and doesn't look cheap like the fur on many other boots. They are easy to put on and are pretty lightweight and easy to walk in. I've been in and out of 18 inches of snow that's fallen so far and they have kept my feet completely dry and toasty warm. Because of how warm they are, I don't even need thick or wool socks with these boots - regular socks are fine. I did try then with my thick socks and my feet were a little too warm and the fit was a bit snug. So, I just stick with regular. Tread is decent but I did slip a little on icier spots. But, that's the nature of ice. The tread works well on just snow though. Overall, I'd highly recommend these boots! They are cute - I'd wear them just in cold weather. But, they are also extremely functional and make dealing with cold conditions and snow so much easier.

Ordered 2 sizes of the Minx, my size and half size larger. The larger size was perfect. Fits my foot like a shoe not a clunky boot. The boot is light and makes walking easy. The gray is a medium neutral color which compliments all my pants. It's warm and cozy and the styling sets it above your average utilitarian boot. I love the boot. Zappos return policy with free shipping both ways is the frosting on the cake.

I wish that I had read the reviews more carefully because I love these boots but have to send them back for a bigger size. They are adorable, but they run at least half a size too small.

Best boots ever to deal with Midwestern winters. They are so comfortable and feel like gym shoes. There is some "squish" when you walk on a hard surface. I have foot issues and these are remarkable! Warm too!

Very warm and waterproof. I wear size 8, ordered size 8.5 and boots are snug and right in toes area so my heel is pushed back while walking. I advice to order one size bigger.

Just got these in the mail so can't comment on weather hardiness but wanted to weigh in on size. I always wear an 8 but I bought an 8.5 after reading the reviews and that was absolutely the correct choice. Perfect fit with a pair of mid weight wool socks. So thank you fellow reviewers. Also, they are very cute, not bulky, flexible sole. Nice dark gray color. Very happy.

I bought these to wear with my snowshoes. They are perfect! They are flexible, waterproof, warm and stylish!

I was a little nervous about the price tag, but it was definitely worth it. After buying cheap winter boots for years and having to pitch them at the end of the season, I'm thrilled these boots continue to work great in their second year. These boots are extremely comfortable, warm, and a great in the snow. They get five stars from this midwesterner!
