Customer Reviews Columbia Ice Maiden™ II

I got these about two weeks ago, just before we got a foot of snow! Excellent purchase! They are very comfy and super cute ( I got the red). I ordered a 1/2 size up to allow for thick socks and that has worked well. I have worn them every day for the last week and a half and they are great in the snow. The boots have kept me warm and dry. They are VERY ease on and off, which I love. The toe box is spacious and the boots fit my pretty big calves well. I highly recommend these.

This boot is so comfortable and is very true to size They keep your keep nice and warm but after having to submerge my feet into deep snow in NYC last year some moisture did get into the boot so I have to take one star off but it was lots of deep slush and before that snow storm they held up in regular rain and kept my feet nice and warm

These boots are fantastic! I was on the fence about buying them because I live in Georgia, where the winters are relatively mild, but I'm so glad I did. They don't make my feet too hot, just nice and warm. It's been in the 40s lately, and raining nearly every day, and these have kept my feet warm and dry. My size ranges from 7 to 8 (usually 7.5), and these (size 8) feel about right. There is plenty of room in the toe, but they don't feel too big. They are very easy to put on and take off, and they're comfortable for walking around.

These are SOOO CUTE and comfortable... I normally wear a size 11 and got a 10.5 and they are perfect

Excellent

Overall this is a good boot, nice and warm. Waiting for a good snow storm to walk in. I usually order boots a half size larger to accommodate warmer socks, these I ordered a full size larger. They are a very simple design with simple colors. I usually like a little more pattern and color but I wasn’t finding any comfortable/warm options. These will do! I walk my dog 5+ times a week, even in the winter so these boots will get their use!!!

I had a pair of LL Beans boots that I owned for over 5 years. It took this long for me to realize that the boots might be too big for my feet, which makes walking very difficult and it gets cold when my toes submerge in the snow. I bought this pair to replace the LL Bean ones, and I would rate it 4.5/5 for its warmth, fit, and comfort. The shoes are really warm, which is hard to find for me because my feet get so cold in the winter. The style is a lot slimmer and it makes walking a lot easier and faster. The boots are weighty and the traction is great! I am usually a size 6 to 6.5, and 6.5 fit well overall with slightly thicker socks. The comfort isn't amazing but it's not bad either. I do find it rubbing on my left ankle bone a little, but that seems to be the case for me with most shoes. However, it's not bad enough to blister. Though there is not much arch support, it doesn't get too painful without insoles.

Love, Love, Love These snow boots, they are perfect in every-way; they are comfy, cute, and stylish. Also ordering from Zappos was easy, shipping was absolutely outstanding and perfect! Will definitely order from them again.

My daughter loves these. She wears them every day at recess in the snow. Her feet stay warm. The color is great.

I agree with other reviewers:these are warm and comfortable. I did not test them in the ice and snow but I believe they will deliver. There’s good arch support their overall lightweight and flexible. I did buy a few other pairs at the same time and found another pair of Columbias that I liked better. I bought the black in these, and for me they were to monochrome and harsh looking. I think it would be much cuter in other colors. I have a black coat so I need some black in my shoe. I guess I just didn’t find the right aesthetic. I plan on returning them. If for this price point they are wonderful if you can find a color and look that works for you.

Nice boot and light in weight, but I felt it ran narrow in the toe box. Even with a half size larger than I normally take, it was not roomy with medium weight socks.

I normally wear a 6.5, but I wanted something a little bigger so I can wear thick socks and/or a custom orthotic. The size 7 is perfect. (Sometimes the extra plush makes boots a full size smaller, but these don't have much plush in the foot area.) They come with a thick foam insole with no shaping, so if you want your feet to have more support, an orthotic will be better. These boots are attractive, comfortable, and should be good once it gets really cold. I might change out the shoelaces. They're way too long, and will get caked when walking in deep snow.

I think this boot runs a half size small. I ordered the same boot in the slip on style in my normal size 8, and sent them back because my toes were right up to the end. Decided to get the lace up style, instead, and bought size 8.5 which was a much better fit. Wore them last weekend for my trip to Vermont and they were comfortable and warm! I like the versatility of the laces so I can either tuck my pants in easily, or wear them over the boots, and adjust the snugness for comfort. LOVE how lightweight the boot is, while still being rated for below zero temps. I gave 4 stars for Comfort because I would have liked more cushioning inside the footbed, but it's not a big deal! Very happy with my choice!

Although I ordered a half size up in this boot, it pressed on the top of my foot and very uncomfortable. Doubtful if another half size up would remedy the way it fits.

I bought half size bigger considering that I wound need to wear wool socks and I should not have gone 1/2 Size up. It is big now . Would be changing it for the true side
