I ordered a 7.5 wide, and my toes were cramped. These boots are incredibly narrow. If you're between 7.5 and 8 and want to wear them with socks, you will have to size up.

A bit disappointed. Was hoping for the same comfort and warmth as the prior generation of these minx. I got 2 pairs and both feel like there's a cardboard insert in them opposed to my others that are more cushiony and mold a lot more naturally to the foot. They're cute though.. just not for that price. I can't comment on the waterproofing as I haven't had any experiences with these.

I love the boot but it is too short. Toes hit the end, can't wear heavy socks. I am a 7.5 and I ordered an 8 for extra room but need a little more. Overall, nice boot.

Footbed is okay- but that’s only because the sole is non existent for walking on anything other than grass. Absolutely awful- can’t walk on cement paths or cobble stones. Not even w my own custom orthotics. I’m sure my feet wld be cold as the sole has no substance. Not even cheap gym shoe sole- worse than that. So sad as they are really cute shoes. Add vibrum soles and you will have a customer!!

This fit as described; the problem is that the footbed pushes to the 'inside' and the upper is not very stiff, so looks crooked when wearing, they have a very worn out look when they are on, the upper part should be more rigid to look like a proper boot.

Warm. No support at all. Feels like you are walking directly on the ground.

The boot has quality and comfort. I thought it was a rainboot because that was my search but it's a Winter boot that I waterproof.

Too small even though I am usually a 7.5 in Columbia. No support. Felt like I was wearing a glorified slipper.

The boots fit is really tight, even when laces are loosened up. I have an average or narrow foot and it was too tight for me to feel comfortable that my foot wouldn't fall asleep.

I wanted to like this boots, but it didn't feel there is enough arch support. My feet pronate and it is critical that I get proper arch support. Unfortunately, I will have to return this boots.

These boots are cute and actually fit well and were comfortable, but my foot rolled inward, so I knew this boot would not be comfortable to wear for long periods on my feet. Because of my overpronation, I need a wider support in the arch area of the sole. I'm sure this would be a great bootie for others.

I bought these and MORITZA BOOT WIDE to compare which is better and the Moritza is way more comfortable (like sneakers) and warm.

I would definitely size up. These are not true to size. Besides that I am happy with the boots.

This boot is good for walking on a sidewalk or trail when the temperature is between 0 and 35 degrees Fahrenheit. The traction is pretty good on ice, they're warm enough and have a low-profile, so it is a good boot for taking transit or walking in the winter. It is not great if you have to be outside for an extended period in extreme cold, and is worthless in melting snow or puddles, because the boot is only waterproof around the sole. I was hoping for a single winter boot, but it is not an ideal boot for climate change winters with cold temps followed by melting snow.

These boots are very cute and pretty warm. The only problem is that they lack any arch support at all. I bought some really sturdy arch support insoles and tried that, but even with those the boot itself is lacking the support needed and these cause me back pain.

These boots did NOT keep feet warm in temps below -25F. We spent a week in Alaska and did A LOT of outdoor activities in -25F -35F -40F temps, even with moisture wicking wool socks, feet were painfully cold. With the addition of "hot hands"/ "hot feet" foot warmers, this boot was effective at those extreme cold temps. We returned home from our trip to temps below freezing (single-digit and in the teens) and the boots were perfect, feet stayed warm. Boots are lightweight and very comfortable. Easy on and easy off. Yes, water resistant (when stepped through higher snow levels).

Very cute -- but unfortunately the wide is not wide. I'm a 7.5W -- and like a lot of women with wide feet -- I have a wider forefoot and an average width heel. So usually if I have a problem with a wide size it's because they slip in the heel. But these boots were narrow everywhere. To have space for thick socks, I ordered an 8.5W -- a full size larger than my foot size. I tried them on with athletic socks -- not even puffy wool socks -- and they barely fit in the forefoot and were too tight in the heel. And I couldn't size up any more because the 8.5 was already almost too long for my foot -- any larger and I would have been tripping in these boots. If the wide size fits this narrow -- the regular width must fit like an iron maiden....

Fit was fine and seems true to size. However, the style was very strange - the sole of the boot is really small compared to what it looks in the photo, the top is very wide and flat, and the result is that they look (to me) like ugly slippers. Returning!

These are thin on the sole, with no heel. Not enough support for walking in snow. They look great, though.
