I wear these almost everyday! They are very warm and I have always stayed dry in them. I did have to buy a half size up from my normal shoe size. I do wish they had a bit more grip for hiking on hills but overall excellent shoe, and great quality!

My feet are ALWAYS cold - Raynaud’s Syndrome. These are amazing. My toes have not been cold at all while wearing these. Per the other recommendations, I sized up to a 9.5 (from an 8.5/9) which was terrific advice. Style is fine... they’re winter boots.

I purchased these boots just to be safe walking in snow and ice, BUT they are as comfortable as high end running shoes. They look really cute with cuffed jeans and a peek of bright, colorful socks. I wear them everyday and walk up to five miles a day in them.

I read the reviews re: sizing! I'm usually a 7/12 in sneakers and 8 in boots. I decided to order my usual size I. Boots because I normally wear thin socks with my boots. Glad I did because the size 8 works great! Still have room even if I wear thicker socks.

I love these boots. they are lightweight, supportive and cozy. and i like the look. my only complaint is that even after spraying them with water protectant, my feet are damp just from walking in wet grass. If these boots had rubberized toes, even just the toe guard in rubber would make them perfect. As others have said, they do run a little small. I'm normally between a 9 and 9.5 so i got the 9.5 and they are just right, almost snug. size up by a half size.

This boot is the perfect hybrid of indoor/outdoor comfort. Keeps my feet warm and dry walking in the snow, but I can wear it inside all day with full comfort of a tennis shoe and without my feet sweating like they do in duckboot-style snow boots. I ended up buying two pairs!

Warm and lightweight. I went a half size up based on reviews, and they were too big. I ordered in my regular size and they fit. Easy return process for the extra pair.

These boots have been great! I got them about 2 months ago. They were perfect for our snow storms that came through (I'm in Oklahoma) we don't tend to get a lot of snow but we have cold winter winds and rain/ice. Usually my toes get so cold but these kept me comfortable. I sized up half a size which has worked out okay but I definitely would recommend a full size up if you're in cold climates where you tend to have thicker winter socks.

After about a month of wear, I have to say these are the best!! Warm, easy on and off, and so incredibly comfy and cushy!! Great for dog walks, errands, and hanging out (as much as you can during pandemic)
I did decide to go up a size and a half to make sure room for toes and socks.

Disclosure: I'm an industry professional and received a discount, but was not asked or encouraged to alter my feedback in any way.
I recently moved from south Texas to the Midwest and it is so cold and wet here! I needed a warm, waterproof boot and these fit great and look cute, too. I've had them a couple months now and still loving them! I wear them every time the temperatures get around freezing and I've even worn them on sheet ice using traction devices. They have enough structure to give support and yet somehow feel as cushy and comfy as slippers. I always forget to take them off when I get home because they're so comfortable! And the waterproofing worked great when I went traipsing through about a foot of snow all day with my dogs.

I bought these several months ago and have been enjoying these boots immensely. They are both warm and light (not to mention waterproof). They are the perfect walking boot, highly recommend. I would just note they run about a half size small, so I am a 6.5 and ordered a size 7 and they fit perfectly.

I've not worn these a lot yet, but I've been very happy with the quality and look of these boots. I read the reviews before ordering and ordered up a full size, I've very happy I did, they fit well, and allows me to wear a LITTLE thicker sock.

Great, low profile shoe for cold weather when you don't want a chunky boot but a sneaker won't do. They run small -- I had to order and return 2 other pair before I landed on these, which are a full size larger than my normal size.
