Customer Reviews Columbia Ice Maiden™ II

These are gorgeous boots but they run really small - full size small! My daughter got the grey color and was a little hesitant as the descriptive color included "raspberry." However, we saw no trace of a pink/raspberry color in the boot. They are a stunning grey boot with a light grey fur. Very attractive and comfortable if you order a size up!

I have wide feet and am regularly an 8.5. After reading reviews that said it was true to size, I ordered an 8.5. I was concerned that it might be too narrow as most shoes/boots are that aren't sized for wide feet. I've worn them for a few weeks now and they are very comfortable, but they fit width wise which means if you have normal/narrow feet, these might be a bit wide for you. They also seem to be a tiny bit larger than an 8.5. I've worn them with and without socks to test the warmth of them (I live in New England) and they definitely keep my feet warm even when standing outside for hours. Overall, great boot. I would have ordered an 8 had I known they would be this roomy, but it's not that big of a deal. Satisfied and would definitely purchase again.

I usually wear a size 8 but I ordered size 8.5 because I have a lot of foot problems like plantar fasciitis. When I first wore this it felt so stiff but after wearing it a couple of times for a few minutes, it became so soft and comfortable for me. It was indeed bigger for my feet but when I inserted my orthotic it was perfect. I love the style too. I just haven't tried it on a wet snowy day yet because it hasn't snowed that much here in Philadelphia. But overall I love it and I would recommend it to anyone.

Comfortable, affordable, quality snow boots. Plus they’re kind of cute! What more could you want? I needed a pair of snow boots for a ski trip. I’ll only wear these on occasion, so I didn’t want to spend a fortune, but it’s important that snow boots keep your feet warm and dry. I’m happy I found this reasonably priced pair from a reliable brand like Columbia. These feel right-sized to me and will accommodate slightly thick winter socks.

I absolutely love these boots I had bought a different style Of Columbia’s in size 8 and they were so tight I couldn’t wear socks. I exchanged them for these In size 8.5 and they are way too big, especially in the ankles. I think they’re a slightly wider boot then just medium with. So if your foot runs a little wide or you have big calves and ankles I think it will be very happy with these boots. I’m going to return for an eight and try that hopefully they’ll be a little more fitted; but not too small.

The boots fit nicely comfortable and warm

Love the boot. I wear a size 7 in a shoe but always order a half size bigger in a boot to accommodate a heavier sock. The Columbia Ice Maiden is a perfect fit. Not only is the boot stylish, it is comfortable and my feet were warm on a chilly winter day.

Usually wear a 7, ordered 7.5, Was too small. Returned for a 8, fits perfect.

Cute boots, would have loved to keep them but they felt like they had no support. I have very flat feet so i need good support.

Best boot for price

I am very happy with these boots. Very comfortable. Great service from Zappos!

I am returning these boots for two reasons. First is I am replacing a pair of Ulu boots that I used for dog walking for years and these Columbia soles just do not have traction in icy alleys where I do most of my walking in a northern suburb of Chicago. Second is that my feet felt cold even though I had heavy socks on. They are rated for below zero weather but the Ulus were lined with Shearling and these just did not feel warm. FYI I did not need special insoles with the Ulus but I put my Superfeet insoles in these. Having said they did not work for me the price cannot be beat as regular snow boots.

Love these boots! Stylish and cute while warm and functional. Living in a ski resort in Idaho and walking to and from work in the snow, I needed something to replace my old Sorels and these were it. I am a Columbia fan now.

I ordered these first in a Size 10. Since I wear 9.5 in shoes lately I figured a 10 would be good with thick wool socks. The 10 felt really big even with the thick socks so got the 9.5. Even these feel plenty big but I'd rather have wiggle room in the cold than too tight for sure! They feel a bit more like I'm walking in shoes or hiking boots than snow boots. I liked some other styles (Boggs) but they seemed a little loosey goosey (comfortably so). I've yet to wear them in cold weather, snow, or mush so I can't say if they will be warm but I sure hope so as that's what I got them for--winter walking outside. Will be testing them out soon hopefully. They are very lightweight. Hard time choosing between these and the Kamik cute red ones (MomentumLo)! Decided these being a bit taller will keep more snow out. Hopefully they will live up to the warmth rating! I live in the midwest where winter is harsh. It was such a tough choice for me so I'm hoping it's the right one!! Some of the other Columbia's were very narrow and tight--cute but just too tight. I have a slender/avg foot and thin calves so I can't imagine who those slender ones would fit!

I usually wear a size 8-1/2 to 9. Recommendations were to size up so I first purchased these boots in size 9-1/2. They seemed a bit wide even with thick socks...so returned and re-purchased in size 9. They are warm and stay dry. I pre-treated fabric with silicone waterproof protection spray prior to use.

Comfortable enough for long walks, and nice and warm for the winter!

I love the fit of these!!
