Customer Reviews Bogs Sauvie Slip-On Boot

Unfortunately the quality is not what I had come to know of Bogs. It's my 2nd pair, and there's many fit/finish issues with this pair. I'm actually pretty disappointed, and will probably have to go with a different brand/purchase - if I can't fix/live with the product defects.

I bought these boots with the intention of finding a more weather proof option to another Chelsea boot (from another brand) that I love. This would have been a 5 star review if the design flaws weren't so obvious, I will say that these boots are comfortable when they're on, and the water tight design is fantastic. Unfortunately, that is where the plus sides end, being a pull on/kick off type boot the foot opening is tight (understandable for waterproofing) which does make slipping into the boot more challenging. The pull tabs which are there to help this process are comically, no offensively small. While I have larger hands for my size, I could only put my pinkie finger in the pull tab. On my third time wearing the boots I tried to pull the tab to get my foot in the boot and ripped it clean off, again, with my pinkie finger. Now if I want to wear the boots it is a wrestling match to pull the boots on, and frankly I might as well take less time with boots that have laces. The struggle that it is to get these boots on far out weigh any of their comfort/performance benefits. After that, I do enjoy the more aggressive tread on these boots, but because of the design of the tread, any concept of 'non-slip' is nonexistent. I bought these to wear in the garden that my professional kitchen runs. One night I got these on to take out the compost, when I returned to someone mopping the kitchen I nearly fell flat out. I have never felt as unsafe with nonslip treads, as I had in that moment. I'd imagine the material is non slip, but because of the tread design there isn't enough surface contact area to prove effective on varying surfaces. Overall, if it wasn't such a pain to get these boots on/off, I'd gladly give them 5 stars. As it stands, they will last longer than expected because fighting a 'slip on' boot to do so just translates to not wearing them as often.

Nearly impossible to get on and off due to poor quality loops. I had to attach zip ties to the existing loops to make them usable. Boots are flimsy - definitely not the quality I had come to expect from Bogs... disappointed

I work with water flowing and splashing onto my feet alot. These worked really well at keeping my feet dry until 2 months after i got them they started to break and fall apart and my feet were getting soaked.

I bought these shoes for my woodworking shop and yard work. I liked them at first, but they developed cracks quickly. This means they are no longer waterproof and they look bad. This happened far quicker than I might expect.

Good Styling , but requires both hands to pull on , but I am old , fat, and don't care to bend over, gives me a headache. Right Pretty and Stylish. prefer the older slip-on style.

These boots worked great for me for about a month. Since then, the left boot makes a loud squeaking noise with every step. It has gotten so loud and annoying that I don't wear them in public anymore.

Great in the snow & rain. Hard to get on & off. The fit is tight & the pull-on loop at the back is too small and flimsy to be useful. The Bogs Tillamook Bay shoe has a loop that is the best & has the easiest on & off. Have three pairs of Bogs, all size 9. This doesn't fit like the others.

The pulltabs on the boot is too small for working hands, on my third use the tab tore off the boot

Sauvie Slip on boots are not at all user friendly. They have too narrow of boot too opening, and the loop tabs aren't long enough nor big enough to use. Not with my big fingers, I love my Bog footwear that I own, on my waders, and my 16" heal grip boots. But these truly are a bad design. Which is why the tab pulled off the boot on their third use. Please issue me a RTG tag. Tks, Rob Kerson

Sizing is off

Too small. I can't put them on. This is the second time this has happened to me.

This boot did not fit so I returned them. Unfortunately, the customer service rep that facilitated the return was rude, unprofessional, argumentative and very difficult to deal with. She has soured me on your company and I will not be a return customer.

my normal shoe size does not fit, so had to go to larger size 12. Also, the shoe flap on back of shoe is ridiculously small. I can't even get a little finger in it. I returned them and got a different boot.
