I was skeptical when I pulled these boots out of the box - they are very lightweight and didn't have the "heft" I expected for snow boots. Had I tried them on in a store, I probably would have passed. Because of the price and because I needed snow boots for an impending 2 week trip to Alaska, I kept them.
Because of packing limitations, these were the only shoes I took on my 2 week trip. The temperatures ranged during the trip from -17 (Fairbanks) to 41 (Ketchikan). I spent several hours outside in 8-18F weather; my feet were never cold.
In addition, traction was great on the snow, there were no uncomfortable rubbing points and there was plenty of room for bulky socks though I also wore very thin ones at one point. As a bonus, they're cute!
I was (obviously) thrilled with this purchase.

Love this boot! Haven't had a chance to wear it in cold or snowy weather (I'm buying it late in the season), but it seems like it will do the trick. Very comfy. I normally wear a size 8 and the 8 was a little snug, so I ordered up a full size to a 9 and it's perfect. I got in the Cordovan/Siberia (brown) and the color pictured is accurate.

These are incredibly comfortable. My feet are warm, and not wet from the snow. They are a little stiff-looking but that doesn't seem to affect the comfort at all. I'm happy with these boots, I would recommend them for someone looking for comfort, snow protection, and style.

These are the best! I live in the Hudson Valley, and as Stella Blizzard was heading our way, I got out my old snow boots, & they had disintegrated (at first I suspected a mouse, but it was the material....it had crumbled away.) So I quickly ordered the Columbia Ice Maiden boots & am completely pleased. They are great in deep snow, because you can lace them snugly around your calf, they are warm, extremely comfortable, and, best of all totally waterproof. You can trump through deep puddles and wade across shallow streams. Lovely. I highly recommend them.
I ordered 1/2 size up, so I could wear heavy socks if necessary.

Bought these for my 10 year old daughter for a recent trip to NYC after a snow storm. She absolutely loved them and didn't want to take them off! Would like it if they also had a zipper down side to help get the boots on and off quicker. Can't really tell if they are waterproof because we were careful to avoid puddles.

Warm, comfortable boot. I wore these all day watching my kids ski and never once thought about my feet, so that's a good thing! They do run small. Got the 10 and they were the same length as the other 9.5 boots I ordered. I could easily fit my orthotics in them and still have wiggle room. Only thing is I don't think they were as supportive on the sides as the North Face ones I was comparing to.

Adorable graceful snow boot. So light! Haven't bought snow boots for years and headed for Quebec so will write again when I get back. My last Columbia's lasted 20 years.

My shoe size ranges between 7 and 7.5, and ordering these in a 7.5 was the right choice, especially since I could comfortably wear them with insoles as well as thick socks. These are not too heavy, cute in style, just the right height, ... and perfect for getting around after a major snowstorm!

I have had these boots since 2014 (3 years). They are consistently warm and comfortable. They have stretched out a bit in that time, so I have to wear bigger socks now. Great support in the arch.

I recently needed a pair of boots for the snowy mountains of CO. Researched this site and found these great fashionable boots for a great price! Since my feet range in size depending on style I ordered the 9.5 and 10 to try. I found the 9.5 fit me best. Made it so snowy CO and the boots worked great! We were in 6+ inches of snow sometimes and my feet stayed toasty and dry. On the icier areas the boots had great traction...however one always needs to be careful on ice no matter how good the boot traction is. Love the return policy on Zappos...makes trying on and returning so easy!
I also recommend cuff boot toppers. Cute way to keep calves warm without over stuffing your boots with thick socks and jeans.

Wonderful winter boots for keeping your feet warm and dry. I live in northern Michigan and frequently visit buffalo NY (my home town), so when it comes to snow boots, I know a good boot when I see one! Very comfy great support and very cute style.

Super stylish compared to other utilitarian-like snow boots, nice cushy inside, very warm. Actually went snow shoeing in Utah in these (strapped into the snow shoes). Might have been my feet, but one was slipping a little bit, but the issue was only there when snow shoeing.

LOVE these snow boots. I had a trip to Colorado and knew I needed some warm snow boots - as I don't need them living in Georgia! Not only are they super cute in person, they are warm. They are roomy enough where you can where super thick socks and still be comfortable. They are a little wide and definitely had extra room - but not so much extra that your foot is too loose when walking around. If you don't want all the room, you may want to order a half size down. Went tubing and dog sledding in these and my feet were warm the whole time.

These were great straight out of the box. My foot is wide with a high arch. I was a bit hesitant since they only came in a B width. I got a half size larger and they fit like a dream. Room enough for thick socks. I haven't had a chance to wear them in the snow but after 2 hours of mostly standing around the house the arch support hasn't given me any trouble. Great boot at a good price.

Really warm and comfortable. I didn't even have to wear a second pair of socks in 10-20 degree weather. Slightly bulky but griped the ice well.

These boots are the perfect combination of style, comfort, and price. These boots keep my feet toasty warm in the Wisconsin winter. I am normally between a 7.5 and 8 - an 8 in these boots fit me perfect and I am comfortable wearing them with thick wool socks or regular socks.

These boots are very cute, but there's not enough arch, cushioning or warmth/fur in the footbed.

Great winter boot. Comfortable, warm and looks cute on. I walked in shin deep snow yesterday with these boots and my feet stayed nice and dry. I really like these boots and the price was just right for such a good quality boot.

These are absolutely darling boots with both fashion and function. It's a boot that actually makes your feet look smaller, while dry and warm for work and play. I am usually a 7-7.5 and the 7 fit nicely.

Super cute boots that are extremely warm. Love the all black ones with the black fur, and the height on my calves is perfect. You can wear them indoors as well without feeling like an eskimo. They're super light weight but still sturdy and durable!

I purposefully ordered 1/2 size up so I can wear thicker socks with these boots. I have been very pleasantly surprised at the waterproof properties since I walk dogs in the most disgusting of weather including snow, rain, a mix of the two, and when sidewalks are submerged in a few inches of snow-melt. My coat, pants, hat, gloves, and scarf may all be saturated but my feet have remained warm and dry. Speaking of warm, this boots have granted me the luxury of toasty toes despite sub-zero weather. On behalf of my feet & my husky/shepherd mix rescue dogs, thank you!

I have been looking for a comfortable yet stylish pair of snow boots for a while now. My search finally ended with these Columbia boots! They are warm, comfortable, and keep my feet dry in shin to knee high snow and ice. They are also as cute as snow boots can be with their lace up front and fur collar! The best part as far as I'm concerned is that they are EASY to take on and off. In the past, I've owned some boots that were so hard to get on and off that I felt like I got an aerobic workout trying to do it. Not these. I can slip each off as soon as I enter my apartment by simply loosening the top laces and using my opposite foot to ease the boot off. I normally take a size 9 in a regular shoe, and sometimes a 9.5 in a boot depending on the style. For these I ordered a 9.5 and a 10. The 9.5 fits very comfortably with room for a pair of medium to thick socks, so I'll be returning the 10. I love these boots so much I may buy them in the shorter style as well. With all the snow here in the Northeast, I know I'll wear them frequently. Would suggest going up at least a half size from your normal shoe size.

These are all gray, not sure why raspberry is in the name of this colour.
They fit great, are very comfortable, amd look cute. Wore them tonight when snow was blowing and our driveway icy, and didn't slip at all.
They keep my feet warm outside, and are not too hot when I am inside.
So glad I decided to buy these!
