Customer Reviews Columbia Ice Maiden™ II

Bought for these for my wife who loves the style, fit, comfort, and warmth. Seems true to size (despite ordering them a half size larger since she prefers to wear two socks).

I’ve been looking at these boots for a couple years now, but decided to buy them this year when it started to snow here early in October! I think they’re really comfortable, stylish & fits true to size. I prefer bungee closures to laces, but at this price was willing to go with the laces.

I found these boots to run a little on the large size if wearing tights but since I wanted to wear thick wool socks, they were perfect for me! With the lacing, you might be ok with tights, but I'm opting for warmth of thick socks! That being said, the fuzzy lining means I can slip them on to run to the mailbox and still stay warm. Real plus!

These boots are great and a really good value. I was looking for new winter books to replace a pair of Sorels I'd had for years that were falling apart at the seems (literally). I was dreading spending $200 or more on a pair of boots and happened to find this pair in my search. All the high reviews were promising and I can say that in person I definitely love them. They are a LITTLE bit on the clunky/chunky side, but still feel like they're stylish enough that I will happily wear them if I'm doing anything that involves being outside in the Minnesota winter for an extended period of time. I love the color combination on the Elk/Red Velvet variation that I purchased. These feel really warm and like they're definitely going to be good for snow and avoiding wet feet. I ordered my usualy size (a 7.5) based on true to size reviews and kind of wish I'd gotten a 7. To me they feel a little too large, but only minorly so. I'm sure that would be resolved by wearing one-two pairs of thick socks with them.

I love these boots by columbia. This is the second pair I have bought. The first pair lasted me many years. The brown color is darker than appears in the picture.

It's rare to see an item have a unanimous 5 star rating. These boots truly are super comfortable and work well for wide calves. Unfortunately one of the boots came with a manufacturers defect but Zappos quickly remedied that and are sending me out a new pair. I got the Elk color and they are really nice.

I can’t wait to wear them. Beyond being warm their very stylish.

Love love love these in red. Even cuter than expected. I wear 9.5 or 10 and went for 10 in these, no problems at all. Soft on inside and waterproof indeed! Good for mushy muddy late fall walks and I am guessing there is a good winter ahead. Columbia is hitting it out of the park for my particular foot/calves: thick calves, weak ankle from injury, previous torn Achilles, slightly narrow foot. Third pair of Columbia shoes in three years and they all hold up fabulously.

So comfy, big enough to wear with woolly socks. Feels like sneakers!

I read reviews and ordered a 1/2 size larger to accommodate wearing a liner and wool sock together for my trip to Iceland. My feet and toes had all the room they needed to be comfortable wearing these boots all day. This was the best purchase I made. The boots look exactly like pictured, they are super cute and super functional. They are also waterproof just like they say. I hiked in wind, rain, sleet and snow plus walked up creeks to waterfalls. My feet were never cold and they were never wet. Awesome, awesome boots! Will definitely purchase again when this pair wears out.

Wanted some boots that were reasonably serious winter footwear without looking clunky. These look quite nice for insulated winter boots. They also have soles that seem fairly sticky and good for icy conditions. I wore them around the house for a while and forgot I had them on which is a good sign. The insoles are comfortable if not super cushy. A good choice for a winter boot that looks okay as street wear too. There are more expensive brands in this category but it's a type of boot at which Columbia excels.

I really like these! They are sturdy and comfortable at the same time! They did great in the snow!

Super comfortable and as described, looking forward to wearing them in the snow!

This fit pretty well but I also got tried the next size and prefer it because I'll be able to wear thick socks.

Excellent fit, especially in such a small size-5. Cushy, and my wife loves them! Waterproof will be tested soon in Ireland....

Love these boots - but had to return them because they are "too warm" for me. I live in Georgia and wanted these for a trip to Alaska, plus be able to wear at home too. They are very cute and comfortable, but just a little too much for a Georgia girl. If you live in very cold weather - I highly recommend!

I love them!

Extremely comfortable and very warm. I worm them out of the box to as all day ski competition. It was very cold and my feet stayed warm. Love these boots!

Love these winter booths. best I've ever owned. they kept my feet warm during the winter months. Bought another pair as a gift

I bought these boots for a vacation to the east coast in case it rained or snowed there, and it served the purpose very well!

These boots are very comfortable, warm, waterproof and attractive. I wore them in deep snow in the country, and tramping city sidewalks. A great solution for snowy slushy winter weather. They are fairly light, and the quality is quite decent for the moderate price range. They were a little on the small side - I exchanged my usual size foe 1/2 size larger to accommodate winter socks. The boots are well lined and warm, but I wanted room for socks. The laces are a bit annoying - they slow down taking on and off, but on the up side they do allow custom adjustment of the ankle and calf fit.
