The zipper gets annoying because there is a piece of fabric that holds it together, it doesn't bother me too much but overall great product. I do happen to own another pair of north face snow boots which I LOVE! I bought these to add some variety.

These boots are a little clunky but of all the boots I ordered and returned or tried in stores, they are the closest to what I wanted. My feet have stayed very warm, I'm plowing through slush and puddles, and they are pretty easy to get on and off. I don't like that they still require a zipper to get them on and of, but it's not as bad as laces and the zipper, now. that I'm used to using this one correctly, isn't bad.

So far I've used them twice in a little bit of snow, but worn them walking around work all day. They are comfortable and are higher than the original North Face zip up winter boots I had. They're also cute with the fur on top so look nicer than winter boots. I also like the side zip as opposed to the back zip of my old ones.

I purchased these as a replacement for boot I purchased 7 years ago. I loved the quality of my last pair and was looking for a comparable replacement. They aren't the same as my old boots I loved in regard to comfort and warmth but are getting the job done. I feel like they are in need of some breaking in. I have used them so far for tromping in the snow and out and about running errands in MN.

The fit is fine, easy to slip on which is just what I needed for running in and out of the house, to work etc...There really is no arch support so I wouldn't wear these for more than an hour tops.

The boots are very comfortable and true to size. The zipper is a bit balky but I am hopeful that it will zip better with use.

Based on other reviews I wasn't sure these would work out but I ordered a half size up from my usual 7 & they seem to fit perfectly, both my feet & ankles. Can't speak to how they'll do in winter yet but they're very soft & comfy so looking forward to some cold weather.

Rain boots but not looking like ones, versatile in cold weather not just for raining or snowing

Only issue I have is that the zipper feels like it gets stuck.

These boots are both comfortable and warm. They also look great. The zipper is a little hard to use, but I am hoping it will loosen a little with time.

I got these boots just in time for the 2018 Sub zero temp. In the northeast. My toes got a little cold but overall My feet were warm.
I have two issues with the boots. Because I have wide feet I had to order 1/2 size bigger which allowed for the cold to reach my toes. I also have difficulty zipping them up. Maybe that will change as I break them in.

I have a narrow foot and ankles so based on some of the other reviews I thought these might actually work well for me. But they were actually still on the average to wide side. What actually is narrow about the boot is getting your foot through the angle to put it on. The boot is very stiff. Once I had them on the boot slipped off my heel with every step.

Am an expert skier and spend a lot of time in the snow going to and from the mountain. Purchased these to slip on and off. The zipper is problematic but the boot itself is not warm. I've worn these several months and am so disappointed.

I love the look of these boots and was really excited to get them. However, after a few quick test wears around the house, I knew I had to return them. There simply was not enough room for my calf in these boots. I am a small framed woman and do not have big calves. I had read in other reviews that women had complained about the boot being too tight around the calf, but I am small and did not think this would happen to me. Overall, the boot was too tight on my calf and very uncomfortable. There is no way I could have tucked my jeans into the boot, which is what I usually do. Also, the zipper was VERY hard to zip, even when the boot was not on my foot. Very disappointing, this could have been an awesome boot.

Cute boots, however they seem to run really small around the calf area. Can't even zip them up and I do not have large calves

Love the idea of this boot but not it’s a bear to get on . The zippers are hard to work and the boot is too tight between the upper cloth and lower rubber part . Once u get them on the foot feels great but I don’t need that battle every time !

So sorry to have to return these boots:(! I absolutely loved them-cozy, comfortable, fit perfectly. But the tread on the bottom was so slippery it was dangerous. I had to go back to my old Northface boots to walk .I am hoping my pair was an anomaly (bought the grey/purple pair on sale xmas '18), but if not, that Northface fixes the bottom material as the boot is so comfortable, I'd buy again with better tread.

I was so excited when I found these boots, but very disappointed after I received them and tried them on. Though they do seem to fit true to size, there is a very uncomfortable pinching at the back of the ankle due to what seems like too much padding inside the boot. They are also very clunky and not comfortable to walk in. The pros are they are cute and warm, but definitely not worth the discomfort.

I wear a size 9, which were too small, my toe hit the front of the boot. I really like the style so ordered a size 9 1/2 however my heel kept slipping out of the back, which I felt could cause a blister.
