This product is true to size, it's very durable, and it's keeps my sons feet warm. Very good product. Glad I purchased. Because it's durable it's also heavy on his feet. However overall it's still a good boot.

I've owned many pairs of Columbia Boots, but this was our first purchase for our kid. The boot, while the same style as the adult version, doesn't seem to be made of the same materials. Does that mean it isn't a good boot? No, it seems to be good and my son just spent 3 hours in 16f weather and didn't complain about the cold nor did he get his feet wet, so it still is a decent boot. It's just probably a notch lower in quality than the adult boot.

I bought these for my son to wear to school, he needs something heavy duty since we walk. He loves these boots, they are comfy, warm and dry and very easy to get on. My only complaint is that it's very hard to tell the left boot from the right. They do run small, I bought a size 1 and he normally wears a 13.

Bought for my 3 year old grandson but way to small he couldn't get his foot in them and they don't tie like normal boots I didn't realize they have like a bungee cord type of shoe string and when when I pulled it out the best I could he couldn't get his foot down it them. But they are very nice boots I love the look of them and how soft and they felt it's just they're narrow in the arch part.

The boots would be perfect if there was a zipper on the side. These are so hard to get on my kiddo - we all get super frustrated. The bungee and lack of zipper are not friendly for my kiddos feet. She said they're super warm and loves them but getting them on is so hard

The boots run very small. They look nice, but with warm socks they won't fit.

I wanted my son to love this boot because the style was great, the look was great and they were nice and light. But once he tried them on, they were so uncomfortable because of where the rubber meets the fabric that we had to return them. Thanks to Zappos for the more than amazing return policy!!!!

We bought 2 pairs for our 2 and 3 years old for Christmas. They are NOT waterproof. They can't even walk in wet grass without getting soaked not to even think jump in small puddles. They are thick and takes for ever to dry. The only good thing is that they are warm so if where you are is cold and dry, they will suit you perfectly. But if you leave in Oregon don't get these, you will regret it.

These are so stiff. At the opening. With all my strength I could hardly pry them open wide enough for my son's foot to begin to enter we got to his ankle and it was no use. I have never ever seen boots made like this. My son is approaching 3.5 size but for lined crocs or boots that we need may wear thicker socks with, we size up to 4 and things are usually fine. So now I have to wait for tracking to update to confirm it is delivered. Then request return. I fear I'll be paying for return and I'm still out boots. So disappointed from Columbia. They are the only boots I wear and only ones I buy for my family or gift or recommend. This was wild and idk how they ever got past inspection I'm guessing he'd need a size 7-8 to get his foot inside the boot. Maybe. I'm not sure they were sooooo stiff. But then they'd be too big/long inside. Sad face.

Unfortunately, this did not work it. Went snowshoeing once and my daughter complained her toes were cold. We were out there for just 4 hours. She also said it felt quite heavy and hard to put on.

Eight year old cannot get them on his feet! They don't untie and are extremely difficult (even for me) to get on. Very disappointed!

Bought two pairs, both the size my kids JUST started wearing. Nope, too tight, their toes are at end. Now I have to pay to return them. Not going to exchange - just bought new from elsewhere. Same sizes and run a bit big, room to grow.

To small. Impossible to get the foot inside without breaking a foot or a sweat. Laces would be better.

I bought these for my 8 year old son. We love the way they look, but his feet get SOAKED every time he wears them and then they take literal weeks to dry out. The insole isnt removable which doesnt help with the drying out process. The last time this happened they started to turn sour because it took so long for them to dry. Comfortable, great looking, but not functional for Chicago winters.

These shoes are very difficult to get on a toddlers feet. He doesn't even wear them because they are so hard for us to get them on his feet.
