Customer Reviews Columbia Ice Maiden™ II

I bought these boots 2 years ago and they are super comfy and they look good as well. After wearing them for one winter and a little bit during really wet weather the rest of the year I was excited to get them out of the closet for for winter again. About halfway through the season when the snow got real slushy and melty I ended up home with wet feet... After investigating, the wear on one sole had opened up a little area inside that wasn't solid and it acted like a straw sucking the water up into the footbed. The boots are still great for cold weather, but I can't wear them when it's wet anymore... These boots get a lot of positive reviews for a reason and I'm tempted to get another pair for this year and just hope that my old ones were defective rather than it being a design flaw. Even at $80 I feel like I should be getting more than 2 solid seasons of wear out of a pair of boots.

These are so cute and comfortable. I had foot surgery last year so my right foot swells slightly at times the wider toe box is great. Tried other styles and my foot felt cramped. Can wear for hours with no problems.

I needed my first winter boots for my first real winter in Canada. I bought these a year ago and they've held up well. These are great for everyday use, maybe not the best for hiking or for work. They keep my feet warm and dry. I have annoyingly wide feet and these fit me well, no sliding or cramming my toes. Loved these so much I'm probably going to buy more from Columbia again.

I bought a womens' size 12--the largest these come--and have found them to be a little snug in length and width. A friend who bought a pair says she wears them without socks, so I'll try that and see if they feel closer to size. They seem warm enough but hmmm, without socks? I'll find out soon enough! There is very little arch support so I have put in a set of Dr. Scholl's and that helps. The good thing about these is that they are lightweight, unlike a lot of winter boots. They are also pretty cute. All in all I like them but they aren't as good as I hoped.

This was the best of the winter boots I ordered . I returned the gray /dark raspberry and will reorder in black . The color next to the gray is a very faint “grayish purple “ which looks ok but I prefer black . The best thing about this boot was the roomy (depth as well as width ) toe box . Room to wear a warm thick sock and still wiggle my toes ! Although this says it’s waterproof , I wish there was less of the suede fabric on the boot because I’m not sure that will look good after it gets wet . But for comfort these were good

These are incredibly comfortable. Bought them for my upcoming winter in Chicago and hoping they'll prove to be worth it.

These boots were just delivered today so I don't know much more about them then, they are comfortable for the amount of time I wore them in my home. They are really a nice style but, the part that blows me away is, I ordered them on the 20th of October and they were delivered in the morning on the 22nd. Lightening fast delivery. If I remember I'll add more to my review when I've worn them in the cold. So far, I'm satisfied.

These exceeded my expectations! Light-weight but warm and so cute!

This was the best purchase I could have made. Walked all over downtown Minneapolis without any problem. Wore them to a football game in nasty weather conditions...feet were nice and toasty! These were worth the purchase. I've purchased a lot of shoes with Zappos and I believe my first review!

These boot were comfortable right out of the box. I wear an 8-8.5 so I bought the 8.5 figuring I'd probably wear them with thicker socks then most of my shoes, and they fit perfectly. I have plenty of room for a thick sock, but the boots aren't too big with a thinner sock. They are really cute and I like that you can lace them up to get the fit you want.
