These are super cute, warm and so soft on the inside. I have been wearing them everywhere and love them. The only complaint I have is that the opening is a little on the small side and it can be a bit of a trick to slide your foot in.

Very stylish but shoe length runs small. Width is perfect.

I LOVE these, however, I ordered my normal size and could barely get my foot inside. And now, of course, they're sold out in the size I need. Such a bummer.

I bought these because I needed a pair of boots that would keep my feet warm and not be clunky. I wore them for an hour and a half while shoveling my driveway and walkway (which had 9 1/2 in of snow the whole way) and my toes weren't cold! The toe box is a little snug, as other reviews have said, but it did loosen up as I worked giving me hope they just need to be broken in a little more. The traction sole is very good, although they probably would not stand up to actual mountain hiking in snow. I especially like the pull cord around the top which kept snow from getting down into the boot and soaking my socks. The laces have a tendency to loosen, but the boots stayed on my feet so... mission accomplished!

I have eyed these boots for awhile! Glad I was able to pick them up while there was still my size available.
I particularly like these lace up books vs the buckle up is because I can cinch close and so when I walk my dog in the snow, I wouldn't have snow in my boots!
So far they have proven to be warm so far. Need to wait and see how they perform in the snow.
One thing I'm not sure about is that it's currently catching my heel in one foot in a bad way. I'm hoping it's a matter of breaking in!
I shall come back and update later.

These are super warm and I assume they'll be perfect for winter weather and snow. These would be perfect if they came in half sizes. Not sure why all shoes don't come in half sizes. Makes it not 100% comfortable for us half sizers!

I walk about 4 miles a day.I was a little disappointed in the poor traction on these boots.I fell the second time that I wore them on a little patch of ice.They are lightweight but not the best for our Adirondack weather.

These shoes are great! I bought them for when I travel to Iceland. However, I was able to test them out before due to the Nor'easter storm here in NYC. I loved them when I wore them! They were warm and I did not feel like I was going to slip. I will say though that I am a true size 11 and when I did the size test it told me to get a size 10. I still ordered an 11, which I am thankful for, and they fit. My mom is typically a 10 and the size chart told her to buy a 9 so she did and they were way too small on her. Great shoe, get your true size!

Exactly how they are pictured online. Fit is true to size. And love the lining inside the boots. Keeps feet warm on a cold winter day.

Shoes are great & they keep your feet warm but during snow days or really wet rainy days, your feet will get wet. Only would wear them on cold, chilly dry days

They are a bit shorter than I expected so not great in deep snow but otherwise they're exactly as promised; light weight, good grip, great for walking the dog in the cold morning.

I *really* wanted to like these, but they pinched my toes so much I could hardly stand just sitting still with them on. Not a sizing issue, just too narrow towards toe area. Also the soles are stiff and cloppy, not comfortable and flexible/supportive like a well constructed shoe should be. Otherwise they’re SO cute and I wanted to love them.

They're very comfortable but after wearing them for a couple hours they start making a clicking sound. Weirdest thing

I normally wear an 8.5 and bought a 9 and they fit great. They're comfortable, but they don't keep your feet warm. I wore them on a chilly night after it snowed, and just running into a store from the car, my toes were cold. You'll need some pretty warm socks if you wear these in the snow or your feel will be very cold.

My heels are raw after walking my dog, super painful when walking uphill. Yea asked around the block and home with a few blisters. I knew they weren't going to be hikers but still. Otherwise my feet stayed dry and warm in 3 inches of snow. They are a slipper with a sneaker sole. They have enough cushion my feet underfoot were happy. If your feet are even on the slightly wider side then this is your only option for a womens "winter boot".

I really wanted these boots to fit. But, if you have an high arch in your foot, like me, slipping these boots on will be a problem. I had to return for that reason only. Otherwise, a very cute boot. I wish I could have gotten them on.

Oh, my. These are so adorable. I love them. My feet do not go down far enough for pull on boots anymore at my age of 60 years. I thought they were a lace up not a 'pull on' with a lace to tighten them around the ankle to keep the snow out. They are not a lace up boot they are a "PULL ON". I got several sizes and I was unable to even get this boot on my foot so I had to send them all back. I felt the description was confusing.

I wear a size 6-6.5 & I opted to go w/the size 6 in the grey color. The boots look just like the pics, they seem well made & warm, they just fit too small on me. I don't like them enough to re-order, but I'd suggest going a size up if you're usually between shoe sizes.

Like the look of these boots unfortunately not as warm as I hoped and the pull tabs on the side don't work very well, you still need to pull them up by the back.
Overall decent but wasn't wowed
