They were not the shoe for me...they made my foot look weirdly. The material was not suitable for a winter boot to me.

The boots fit very snuggly and are tight. It’s difficult to wear thick socks with them, which are needed as these boots don’t keep my feet warm.

First, they did not fit. I take an 8.5 to 9, so I ordered a 9. Still way too small. Second, the way the Omni-heat is stitched into the lining is not well thought out. When you put your foot in, it catches the loose lining and pushes it under your foot making these boots very uncomfortable. You're standing on quite a bit of lining. You can try to hold the lining in place, but it's complicated.
I returned these boots.

Fit half size too small (bought size 6), No support at all. Super cute and I might have ordered diff size but there’s this super scratchy Columbia tag thing on the upper tongue with hard creases and sharp edges. You can’t remove them and I knew those darn things rubbing against the top of my foot were a deal breaker. Ugghhh too bad, so cute and had good gripping bottoms.

Unfortunately for me, the fit was too tight and I even went up a half size! The boot was light, cute and not clunky.

I really wanted these to work. I have a different pair of Columbia boots in the same size that fit well. However, these felt very narrow. (I have wider feet but I don't usually need to buy a size wide). I recommend ordering a size up and if you have wide feet, these are not for you.

I usually wear an 8 or 8.5, after reading a lot of reviews saying they run small I got a 9.5 to be safe. They are still too small. Then they want you to pay six dollars to return them. Ridiculous.

The soles of these boots are so slippery - it's scary to think that they are meant to be used in snow and ice.

Once I get my feet into these, it feels like they're shrink-wrapped onto my feet. Sadly, I have to return them.

The boots were perfect size(7.5) but too narrow. I had on Smart Wool thin wool knee highs and my feet felt squished across the top of the boot. If they made a W width they would have fit perfectly. Why boot manufacturers don't make wide widths is beyond me. Who wears a winter boot without some sort of thicker sock?
I went to Boscov's and bought BareTraps ankle high boots in size 7M and they fit perfectly.

I ordered a 1/2 size bigger as was suggested by other reviewers. However, these boots still felt too small. Also they are very narrow at the toe and it doesn't feel like there is much padding in the sole. I returned them.

This boot was too big and it isn't very comfortable. It was waterproof, so that part was good for 3 days in the Sierras to stay dry during rainy and snowy conditions.

I was excited about wearing these bootties all winter because they looked cute and warm, but unfortunately they did not keep my feet dry or warm. After two months the fabric started ripping and cracking, which let even more dampness into the tie box! At the end of winter I had to throw these boots away because they were falling apart. Would not recommend for serious winter wear.

Was optimistic but disappointed. Looked for an "in-between" outdoor/indoor warm winter boot but should have paid more attention to previous review about it being narrow in the front and lack of arch. I am a 7-7.5M average foot so I was surprised when even the 8 felt tight. Returning and trying another brand

This boot runs small and narrow. I have wide feet and generally wear a 10.5, sometimes a 10 to 10 wide, and sometimes because my feet are wide I'll have to buy a size 11 even though an 11 is usually a little too big. I ordered these in a size 11 and they were too small and narrow. They have been returned and I will not reorder. A size 11 shoe is never too small on me. So, I would recommend ordering at least a half size up if you have medium width feet and a full size up if you have wide feet. Columbia's sizing doesn't seem to be consistent. I also ordered the Columbia Loveland Mid Omni-Heat in a size 10.5 and these felt slightly bigger (while still a bit too small and narrow) than the size 11 Columbia Heavenly Shorty Omni-Heat. The furry collar on the Columbia Heavenly Shorty Omni-Heat is bulky so you would have to tuck your pants into the boot. Since these are short boots I would not recommend using them for shoveling snow.

IF you have narrow feet, you might love these. I have medium to wider feet and these fit like narrows to me and I put them on barefoot and the bottom is too thin - you can feel everything. Back they went.

After reading the description I had high hopes of warm boots that could handle the snow and ice for ice fishing. I put them on and noticed instantly that they are narrow so I had to go up an entire size so that I could wear thick wool socks with them but they were still comfortable enough. But when I walked out on the snow and ice I instantly felt the cold. They say they rated for -32 degrees and that definitely isn't accurate. They felt ok during the day, but it was in the 30s but once the sunset my feet were freezing. Disappointed and will be returning them.

I bought these to replace my old Omni heat boots that I loved so much I completely wore them down. But these do not fit at all like the old ones. Same size, but these were very tight, especially in the heel. Had to return.

Really weird fit. Felt as if someone had put extra length onto the toe box - like I was wearing a clown shoe. Too bad because the boot looked good until I put it on.
