Customer Reviews Columbia Bugaboot III

I love this boot. Feels good and keeps my foot warm. Because I where boots when it's cold I also wear a thicker the normal sock. I needed to order 1/2 size larger than normal.

I needed a waterproof boot that would keep me warm in snow and ice, and these Bugaboots do the job well. I was surprised at how lightweight they were, given the warmth and protection they provide. They are also quite comfortable and are easy to walk in. I personally like the look of the black/red style too.

This is a great boot but it runs a little small. Some online descriptions at various retailers are inconsistent about whether it has the OMNIheat technology. Bottom line, I recommend it, but order a half size up, or a whole size if you like bulky socks.

I have had a pair of Bugaboots for 6 or 7 years. I would wear them as snow boots going on 3 -5 mile hikes 4 or 5 days a week in the winter. Only this past winter have they begun to wear out. I was looking for a new pair to replace them; reading reviews on different snow boots and becoming frustrated. That's when it dawned on me to just go with the what worked in the past. Bugaboots. The Bugaboot III offers more padding than the original Bugaboot and is higher, but it seems to be lighter which is a huge plus. Also, Columbia kept the original tread which is great because that tread design works great in the snow. I noticed that the Bugaboot IV has a different tread and thus the reason for me opting for the III. I expect to get 5 years and about 1,000 miles of good winter hiking out of this pair.

THESE BOOTS ARE WELL BUILT COMFORTABLE AND WARM...SEEM TO BE WATERPROOF IN LIMITED WET CONDITIONS. SO FAR I OULD BUY THESE AGAIN AND SUGGEST THEM TO OTHERS AS WELL

I normally wear a size 10, I ordered sizes 10, 10.5 & 11, returning sizes 10 & 11, hope that helps, very nice boots though! awesome sale price at $65!

Bought it for use in Wisconsin winter and it saved my feet in 9-10 inches of snow. I usually wear size 10 for summer boots and used 11.5 for this boot which just is little uncomfortable for one foot. Size 12 would have been better.

this boots are good quality materials, warm and durable. my husband is really happy. He needed to buy half size up but they are a bit hard to walk long distance.

This Boot fits true to size. I wear a size 13 and they fit perfect while wearing normal socks. The Boots would fit extremely snug if thick socks were worn. Thick socks are not needed however due to the amount of insulation in the boot. Looking forward to getting years of usage out of this boot!

Got this boots for my hubby. We read reviews before ordering. Usually he wears a 9 but after reading reviews we got 9.5. I am glad we read reviews because it would have been frustrating to return them. We have had a very rough winter and they are comfortable, warm and water proof. Best investment!

Nice and warm. I really enjoy them.

Be careful y'all. I wear size 10 shoes and 10 cowboy boots but have to wear 11 1/2 for these boots. I think it's just cause of the padding they put in them. Y'all, I had to move to Wisconsin for work and bought these boots. Let me tell you folks best boot purchase I have ever made. They feel like pillows on your feet. They keep them very warm as well. I don't know if mine just in particular had some quality control issues but the stiching in my boots seemed rushed or not well done. However still overall good product for the price. 10/10 would recommend and buy again.

I really like these boots... they look good and seem to be a high quality. I always wear size 11 and these feel a little bit too tight... I'm keeping them hoping that they will loosen-up with some break-in wearing. I wore them in 20-degree weather walking on snow & ice... and they are toasty warm.

Since our son is now in men's sizes, it even harder to find boots that aren't too big & clumsy, too small, too this & too that. We've always had good luck with the bugaboots kids boots, so I figured, maybe they have men's sizing. Bingo!! It's a winner! He absolutely loves them...and with the record below zero cold weather throughout the Midwest, perfect timing! Being a rewards customer is the icing on the cake....free shipping! It's a win/win. Thanks Columbia!

These boots are warm, give great support, and are a great fit. After reading other reviews, I did order a 1/2 size larger since others said they ran a little small. That insight made a huge difference and I was able to get a pair of boot I could use the day they arrived. I would buy these boots again. Great boots!

My son loves them! And an excellent price!

You wear them and you're good to go no matter how thick the snow.

Haven't had them in the woods yet but very comfortable. Toes got very warm after about 10 minuets. I wear a 12 in every shoe I wear. These boots in a 13 is perfect. Go a size up.

They are great, keep my feet warm while walking in the snow they have great grip, they are a little bit tight on the toes tho, other than that, perfect

The best of the best...!!

This is perfect winter, waterproof boot to match for feet even tried to other brands. Columbia boots are perfect and very comfort think as I am wearing UA basketball shoe but it is snow boot!! My foot usually get cold easy also I sometime get hot easily but the omni heat is perfect balance keep my feet warm at right temperature in 25s during frigid raining windy. Very comfortable walking between far north of Seattle by get on bus then walk to downtown Seattle to my work in frigid rainy windy. I will definitely buy more snow boot as need to. Thanks to Columbia... rock!! ( I have two Bugaboot III Boot-black and grey...very beautiful colors)

Boot looks and feels good. It holds up well, albeit I haven't put it through the elements (rain/snow). Has good traction and fits true to size.
