Very comfortable boots. Keep my feet warm and dry while delivering a nice look at the same time when worn with jeans. They run true to size, there's no need to purchase a bigger size than the one you are. Lightweight, good for use for prolonged periods of time.

I wore these around the house for a few days and was surprised about there comfort. I will be wearing these for a week in Iceland. I will update my review after the trip.

I never had a boot that was so light weight and yet provides excellent comfort and protection from the cold. I wore them to a number of sporting events that have lasted 3+ hours and my feet have stayed warm throughout the events.

This is my 5 pair footwear with Columbia, I got these boots hoping it was the same comfort as my summer boots and fall tennis shoes, I used to buy Nike's for the summer, no more and this winter boots prove to be as comfortable as the summer ones just with enough heat to keep you warm throughout the day, I have become a fan of Columbia footwear. This boots are worth every penny. Outstanding sole and feel, great job.

These boots are just so good. Best boots I have ever owned that I bought a second pair as It will be tough to find boots this amazing.
They are warm, waterproof,comfortable, look great and are durable. They should last a long time. I rolled with the grey and orange.

I bought these to have a boot for snow days in Denver, CO, overland/4x4 winter driving, and winter camping. My trusty go-to bulky snow boot are uncomfortable driving, not office-casual attire, loose fitting and clumsy. The Fairbanks is great! I have been using them for about a month in snow, dry, office, and airplanes. Recently I spent two days in an outdoor 4x4 training class with a few inches of snow on the ground. I was comfortable and sure footed all day. They insulate so well that snow does not melt on the exterior. I can adjust the comfort through sock choice. Great for driving. Lightweight. At first I did not like the absence of lace hooks at the top, but its proven not to be an issue. Adding more web farther up the tongue would help for deeper snow and the tread could be a bit deeper, but grip has been great. These are performing so well that I think I'll be replacing my 20+ year old other brand snow boots with a Columbia boot soon as well. Those will be for deep snow hikes, walking, and snowshoeing.

Not only is this shoe warm, it is waterproof, both as advertised. I'm in Chicago, was working outdoors at O'hare for the past month and my feet are toasty... in fact, I don't even have to wear a thick wool sock, don't need to. Water, snow never an issue, don't even think about it. They are comfortable as well, good cushioning. Well thought out and constructed boot.
Two suggestions... hooks for the top instead of eyelets and the option to trade out at least the color of the laces, though I also prefer them maybe 4 inches shorter, too.

These boots provide both the comfort and warmth I was looking for standing outside on the cold winter nights, while also offering functionality over my clunky snow boots

I went to Fairbanks and braved the -25 temps and these boots really held they're own. Very comfortable, great traction and they truly kept my feet warm in the negative temps even after an hour outside with no toe warmers. I normally wear a 9.5 but ordered a 10 because of the thick socks I wore.

I truly enjoyed this purchasing experience. Unfortunately, my puppy ate my old boots, but kind of glad she did at this point.

These boots are very comfy and stay warm all day! Love how easy they are to get on and off and the soft feel, while still feeling robust and solid in the snow. Runs a tiny bit small but ended up getting my regular size just lacing them a little tighter. It's nice to have that option with the lacing. The Omni heat is great. I'd highly recommend this boot to anyone looking for something new.

I am a women and have wide feet. After Trying on so many women's boots that were to narrow,.. I tried on some men's and these boots fit me great! They are very comfortable with lots of room To where heavier warm socks. They are very light and very comfortable. They keep your feet very warm In the 10 degree temperatures and keep your feet dry from the snow/rain. I got the color black and I don't think anybody would know but they are men's boots..... but who cares as long as they fit and keep your feet warm.

I was worried about the quality at first because they seemed kinda cheap and stiff. I was completely wrong, after wearing them a couple times, they have broke in awesome and are super comfy, keep my feet super warm! I literally only wear them when it's freezing because my feet will sweat they get so warm. I can wear them for 15 hour days and they do not hurt my feet. Would totally buy these again!

I haven't owned a pair of snow boots since I was a little kid. I have always gone out in the snow in my sneakers or hybrid-trail running/mountain climbing shows. That said, I will never do that again. These boots have changed my world. They are incredibly comfortable and warm. Whether walking my dog in the snowy woods of our backyard or shoveling all types of snow (even slushy snow) the boots kept my feet dry and warm. I felt good on all types of terrain and in all conditions. Plus, the color/style made them relatively acceptable in public and tucked relatively easily under my jeans so people could hardly notice I was wearing diesel snow boots in the office. I would highly recommend these boots for anyone trying to find a functional and sleek way to keep their feet warm and dry during the winter.
