Customer Reviews Columbia Bugaboot Plus IV Omni-Heat Wide

My husband and I both purchased these boots. The first winter we wore them, they were fantastic. We pulled them out of the box to wear this winter and they were cracked and falling apart . Of course, they are no longer under warranty. I would definitely NOT recommend these boots to anyone unless you plan on wasting your money each year.

WARNING: This is not a proper hiking boot! It lacks proper inner support and as such the toe bends up very easily and causes pain on the top of your foot. This boot was returned by me as soon as I put them on and tested them in my house. A boot flexes this easily is not for hiking in the winter or summer. But winter would be the worst, as it will not support crampons or snow shoes. BEEN THERE DONE THAT with other boots similar to this. I was just coming this would be more rigid.

The collar where it meets the tongue of the shoe is ripping at the seams on both shoes. White fabric is exposed. The material is obviously poor quality and stitching is sub standard.
