No room for my toes or socks with this boot. I ordered my normal size eight and they were too small.

The base and sole is not well supported. The boots forced my feet to take on pressure on one side of it. I changed the orthotics for better support and it didn't make any difference.
Leaving the base and support, they are well designed and I love that you can tie the lace around the calf.

I ordered a size up in these, they fit well with thick socks, comfortable and nice-looking, however they're super thin and don't seem like they'll be warm at all, especially not in Colorado snow. I put one on and threw an icepack on the toes, I'll could feel the cold through the boot in less than a minute. I'll be returning these, disappointed! I need a good snow boot!

Wore these in below freezing in Alaska with two layers of wool socks and my toes were cold as soon as I stepped outside. They are a great light weight boot but not worth it for cold temperatures. Might as well get the shorter boot for walking in above freezing temps.
I ordered the black with the brown soles. The boots are more of a dark navy.
They also pull on the heel while walking which is fine for an hour but leaves your heel and Achilles sore after an hour.

I wear a 10.5 and ordered an 11 to allow warm sock room… way too small. Toe box very flat and narrow. Very hard to get on and lace up. If one lace comes out of back eyelet extremely difficult to thread back through. Heel weirdly lower than ball of foot, why? Terrific tan color, nice faux fur lining, whole boot is just “off”. Disappointed!

I usually wear a 6 1/2 but after reading the reviews I decided to size up to a 7 1/2. When trying these on I wasn't wearing any socks and my big toes hit the front/tip of the boot. I do like to step into boots but I had to pull them up to get my feet in, which isn't a deal breaker. I think they would be comfortable with the right size. I will be returning these and unfortunately not able to try the 8 1/2 as they are sold out.

These snow boots do not have any support. They are very squishy. I would not recommend.

The boots are great quality. However they run extremely small, 1-1.5 sizes to small. My 13 daughter is a womens 9 and the 9.5 was to small.

I normally wear a size 8.5 or 9 depending on the brand and style of a shoe. I ordered these boots in a 9.5 based on reviews saying they ran small. The 9.5 were too snug in the toe, but not unbearable. I figured going up another half size would work. I returned the 9.5 and ordered a size 10. The 10 was still too tight in the toe, but now also slipping in the heel. The upper part was too big and the fabric bunched oddly in the front and over my ankle. I returned them. Too bad because they look nice, have plenty of padding in the footbed and felt like they would be nice and warm. The fit was just very strange with a very narrow toebox.

I took the advice of other reviewers and sized up a half size and they did fit nicely, however, they were still snug in the width and ankle, so they may not be the right boot if you have wide feet. The boots are lightweight and very comfortable and I loved them at first! But... after wearing them in the snow in +25F weather, my feet were wet and cold when I took them off... The boots clearly say they are waterproof and rated for -25F weather, but I did not find this to be the case. I will unfortunately be returning these boots. Disappointed because I really wanted to love them!

Super comfortable but super weird sizing. I tried my size which is 7.5 but it was way too tight especially if you're going to wear winter socks with them. So I ordered the 8 and it felt exactly like the 7.5: too tight all around. Then I got the 8.5 (coz I really wanted these to work!): still tight on the top of the foot but now too long in length even with socks. They are light and flexible and comfortable and I love that unlike so many other winter boots they are not super bulky but the sizing simply didnt work for me. I have a somewhat skinny foot and even with that, the boot felt way to tight across the foot.

I was looking for something I could use doing short hikes that wouldn't be too heavy. The style wasn't one I normally would pick, but it seemed lightweight, and it turned out it was which was great. I had high hopes for it, and ordered half a size up thinking that would do the trick based on other reviews. Unfortunately, the width is was still extremely narrow in the front, and made it impossible to even wiggle my toes. I would have tried an 11, except for the fact that the heel area was already roomy enough and I worried that going up a size would make my heel slide up. Too much guessing and not worth overthinking it so I just returned it. Ended up getting the heavier Sorel Winter Carnival which is much more traditional but with plenty of room and warmth.

I ordered a half size bigger as the page indicated and they were still very tight with a decent pair of winter socks on. I could probably wear them with very thin socks but then they are not warm.

Ordered a half size larger as recommended by previous reviewers, but still too small. Will likely try to order a full size larger as the boot is super cute.

I have narrow feet to begin with, but unfortunately the toe box was too narrow for me. Although I ordered a size up like how the other reviews suggested, I still returned these boots. I really liked the style and warmth otherwise. Total bummer about the fit

I ordered these boots a size up from what I normally wear. I was trying to account for heavy winter socks. But when I tried them on with regular socks they were to small.

I love Columbia footwear and always wear a size 10. I ordered a 10 and could barely squeeze my feet in them. Customer service was amazing (of course with Columbia) and waived return shipping fees to order an 11. Even the 11s were too small. Unfortunately had to return those as well.

The right boot sole was thinner than the left. The right boot fit and would've accommodated wool socks. The left boot sole was thicker and therefore really tight. My left foot barely fit with a thin booty on. And I walked uneven like one leg was longer/shorter than the other. A very noticeable difference. Disappointing. I LOVED the boots.

According to the size chart I should be a size 7. I knew this was wrong since I normally wear a size 8.5-9. I went with a 9.5 because of all of the reviews saying they run small. A 9.5 was incredibly tight and uncomfortable to the point of hurting my feet. The fact that I would need a size 10.5 is crazy to me but for these shoes go two sizes up.

I really wanted these to fit...seemed like they would be really comfortable if they fit. I usually wear a 9 1/2 narrow. Based on the reviews, I ordered them in a 10. Too small, sent them back and ordered a 10 1/2. That pair was long enough but so narrow I could only wear them with lightweight socks. Very little room in the toe box too. Gave up on these and sent them back.

I really wanted these boots to fit. I love the look of the boots. Yet, they are oddly sized boots. I have narrow feet and typically size up for boots to a 9 but the Columbia Minx Mid III were very tight, even the next size up of 9.5. The toe box is super tight. Sadly, I had to return the boots. Zappos, however, provided their usual excellent service and delivery.
