These are really nice looking boots. I bought the current/sage - and it's really a nice color. I really want to keep them, but after buying them .5 size bigger than my normal 8, they are still very tight and narrow. I even tried them without socks and they still feel snug. I think if I go up to a 9, they'll be too long and my feet will slip around. I bought several pairs of Columbia boots (this one/Minx, heavenly omni-heat, ice maiden) - all half size larger than my normal size 8. The Heavenly Omni-heat are VERY tight. The Minx are tight, but not as tight as the Heavenly Omni-heat. The Ice Maiden has much more room (possibly too much), but is not as attractive as the others. So, these are likely all going back and I'll place another order! Too bad! I live in upstate NY and I have a 6 year old, so I need them to chase her around in the snow! I'm getting desperate!

I thought these had a side zipper so I didn’t have to lace/unlace each wear. Not for me.

These boots are super comfortable!! They do run small. I haven't tested them out in the colder temps yet, we've been having a mild winter in Wisco.

I love these boots for walking around town and going out in the snow. They are super comfortable, just order a size up. I've had these for a year now and they look brand new. Like another customer said, I wouldn't recommend these for winter hikes in extreme cold but they are great for commuting / everyday use.

This is ridiculous. I bought my size in a 9. Loved them but don't fit. Returned and bought the 9.5. STILL too small. Just had to return and try one more time so I got a 10.5. Well see how that goes but I've never been past a size nine. So I'm irritated. But they are a gorgeous boot.

Nice boot. Lightweight and soft inside. But while I wear a M width, these are really snug with a lightweight sock on to the point of being uncomfortable.

Like others have said, these run SMALL. I'm usually a 10 and had to get a 12 (never worn a size 12 in my life). But now that I have the right size, they are very comfortable and light. No more "clunky" heave waterproof winter boots!

I swear by Columbia boots but these run SUPER small. If you intend on wearing them with thick, fuzzy socks, size up!

To be fair, I have a bad foot that swells (past injury) but these do run small. I normally wear a 8.5 so I ordered a 9 and to be honest, there is no room for heavy hiking winter socks so I hope these keep my feet warm enough that I don't have to wear heavy socks. Otherwise, I have not worn in snow yet but soon. The build looks good, warmth seems good and they are lightweight (a big plus, my last winter boots were very heavy and hiking was exhausting with them.).

I haven't worn them yet, but I tried them on. They are sooooo cute. I'm a 7&1/2 I ordered the 8 since they were out of 8&1/2. It fits but with no room to spare. Also the inner lining on one of them feels like it is moble/saggy so have to reach in there and pull it up the heel. I really how this doesn't cause big problems later!!!! Other than that they are precious!

I struggle with finding winter boots as I have very wide feet and a high arch. I ordered 2 pairs of these boots after reading a number of the reviews and I'm glad I did. I vary between an 8-8.5 depending on width available- I ordered a 9.5 and 10 in these boots and I'll be keeping the 10s. I definitely won't be able to wear thick "warm" socks however there seems to be more than sufficient lining so I don't anticipate my feet getting cold. From a superficial view- even having to order 2 sizes larger than I normally wear the boots are sleek and it doesn't look like I'm wearing my fathers boots!

I ordered this boot for my wife who is very petite and wears a size 6. It stated "true to size" but my wife had to return and order up a full size as these run very small. Otherwise, the boot is very functional and comfortable. My wife also loves how stylish the boot is. Seems like a great winter boot!

The boots are cute and comfortable. They run smaller than normal so might want to buy a size up (or two). I wear a 10, got an 11, and they were still tight on my toes.

These boots run small!!! I wear 8.5 and ended up keeping a 10 due to how narrow the boots are across the top of my foot. The 10 is a little snug across my foot if I have too thick of socks on. But if I wear thin socks then I'm able to wear cute boots. Aside from that they are comfortable. I walked 2.5 miles in them today with no issues.

I always recommend Columbia boots to people looking for some quality winter wear. I have had one pair for about two years now and have never had issues. But I finally decided to upgrade! This boot is super warm, cute, and with it being a taller boot, it will help keep out more snow. As other people have stated, you will have to go up at least a half a size (if wearing normal socks), to a full size (thick socks), than what you may normally wear.

I bought this shoe for my sister and one for myself and we both had to buy 1 size up because the shoe does run a little small and tight. Otherwise, the quality is great in the snow and it's waterproof so the shoe doesn't get stained on the outside which is nice! I would buy again!

These boots are very lightweight and soft structured (except for the sole), so it feels more like wearing thick socks/structured slippers, not boots!
Based off of other reviews I went up 1/2 a size, but even that wasn't enough. It's still a bit too small. It fits, but only with really thin socks and it's still snug. I'll need to exchange for a larger size (going up 1 full size).
Size Note: I am usually a 9.5 for athletic shoes, 9 for dress shoes, bought these boots in a 10 and will now need to exchange for a 10.5

I ordered online a half size up after reading the reviews and I'm glad I did! They run small and I may have been able to get away with a full size up. My feet are on the smaller side and they boot is very tight around my foot...maybe once I break them in they will be a bit wider. Other than that they are Really nice quality and very warm.

Is the first time I find a pair of boots of this kind that fit me without worrying for my skinny long feet. I also have very skinny legs, so I love the fact that the tube is also friendly for skinny people (usually tubed boots are for people with good calf (something I definitely don't have) They look cute with diverse of outfits, which is very helpful when traveling abroad, and you don't want to carry much clothes. Advise, go 2 to 2.5 sizes up. I'm usually 8.5 and I bought 10.5; after returning size 9 that didn't fit me, not even close (10.5 still very tight, no room for wool socks). Also, I read a review about someone feeling her feet uneven; I believe that person got the inserts in different sizes, at least that was my experience with the first pair received (right foot had one size down) Check the inserts previous trying them on.

I like the boots. Ordered in regular size 8.5 and they fit okay. Would probably have been more comfy if I had a 9. They do stretch out a bit though so they became more comfortable after breaking them in. They're warm and look good with leggings or tight jeans.

Like previous reviewers - The width of the boot was so extremely tight, I would size up. Material and look were great!
