Great boots for not so great weather. I usually wear size 10 but went up to 10.5 mainly because size 10 wasn't available but now I'm glad I did, I can wear thicker socks, I think a 10 would have been too small. Also easy to get on and off because of a zipper. They are very comfortable and warm.

Love the zip up. They are waterproof but not too hot. Great for snowshoeing in Summit County Colorado.

I purchased these with a few other pair to see which I liked best, it was this pair without question! Worth every penny! Cute and functional. Feminine looking toe, not bulky like many similar styles. I’m short and the boots came up just over mid calf which is a very comfortable height for me. I really like that you can adjust the laces to fit ONCE, then use the zipper for easy on and off without having to fuss with the laces every time you put them on. The downfall is the tongue is not fixed, it may shift to a side which might let snow in. Hasn’t been an issue for me (yet anyway) although I haven’t been in deep snow with the boots alone (over pants) I’ve only worn them under snow pants... no bulk, pure comfort... the don’t bunch at the ankle either, great fit.

Awesome boots fits like a glove; amazing support; hugs your foot, ankles n legs; high arches I don't have to wear my orthotics in these; feet never get sore, tired or I never have cold feet anymore!

These boots have kept me warm and dry in New Hampshire winters. On those very snowy days the extra height has been just what I need. And they are very comfortable whether on a 5+ mile hikes with my dog or snowshoeing up and down the hills. And they look great too.

I make a lot of home visits so I am outside quite a bit as well. The boots are fantastic for comfort. They fit great, I always prefer taller boots. I wish I could have gotten them in brown but they did not have them when I purchased.

These are so comfortable!!! The grip works, of course just like with studded tires you still need to be cautious.

I wore these boots on a 6 mile round trip hike up/down a mountain in the snow. I cross through some streams of water and my feet stayed dry. My toes did get a bit chilly when taking a break to eat but considering the cold temps (25 or colder), I feel the boots did a great job of keeping me warm and dry.

The fit and size are perfect. I wear between a W11 and W12, and the W11 is a good fit. I like the side zipper for easy on and off, and the laces help for a more customized fit. I see the potential to adjust these boots to a variety of winter temperatures. Wool socks and a sheepskin foot bed could add warmth on super cold days. Gaiters could give the boots an extra waterproof layer when needed. Best of all is the amazing Vibram sole for confident traction on any cold weather surface. These are a keep.

The only reason I didn't give 5 stars for style is that these boots are made to work, not for style. They fit and feel great, will be warm when it's cold where I live and provide great traction.

Great for snowshoeing - comfy, warm, and easy to get in/ out with the zipper. Wish the tongue area was slightly more waterproof, but love these overall.

Got my first pair in college loved them so much I decided to replace them once I broke the zipper on my old ones. Other than that the old ones were still holding together fantastic even five years later. This pair is more comfy and easier to tie and of course still has the zipper. Great boots most likely going to buy a third time once these ones go out on me.

I love these boots very much! Since I got them, I've been walking on the beach 5 or so days a week, for about 3 miles. Due to the rubber bottoms, I can actually walk in the water in CT in February and not feel the cold! I don't go very deep--just a couple of inches, but still! I also love that they fit more like a good sneaker or good hiking boot than a snow boot, giving me the stability that I want and need. Previously I had been wearing snow boots and my feet would really hurt at the end of the day, where as now I have no pain at all. I'm so glad that I bought these and will surely be wearing them for years.

Love these boots; easy to put on, great on ice and snow. I debated between the tall and the short, glad I went for the tall. They are stylish to boot.

Great fitting boot - keeps my feet warm and dry. Excellent construction. I have been wearing the boots for snow shoeing, walking and hiking. The zipper on the side makes it easy to take on and off. glad i invested in a new pair of boots.

Great boots! Fit according to size. Lace up and zipper make great combo. Can lace a bit tighter to be sure to keep snow out or a bit less snug when snow isn't so deep. Great foot support and very good traction. Love them! They make me want more snow.

Excellent winter boot. I live in Northern Virginia and we just had some fun rounds of snow, ice and slush. I'm extremely happy I purchased these boots before then because they kept my feet warm and dry as I walked my dog. It has a nice grip, has good ankle support and they're very aesthetically pleasing to boot. Hah. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

I just got these to replace a highly recommended brand that were warm and cute but didn't work for plantar. I look for shoes and boots that don't bend. These arrived Friday and I wore them for a couple mile dog walks with no issues. Today three mile hike in the woods, on 18 inches of snow pack. My feet stayed warm and dry and most importantly, no foot pain!
