Customer Reviews Bogs Neo-Classic Mid Exotic

Our whole family has bought Bogs for years. We decided to try the Neo-Classic Mid for farm/work boots since they are smaller and lighter. Well, sadly they are terrible! They rubbed my daughters legs raw the first time she wore them. We are so disappointed and would return them if we could, but since she wore them for a full day at work, we cannot. Biggest waist of money!!!

Warm and comfortable but I am amazed that a winter boot would have such terrible tread on the soles. I'm pretty sure non-slip soles have been around for a pretty long time, so I don't understand why they chose the wavy lined tread for these boots. They usually don't slip in the forward/backward direction, but the lack of cross-hatching in the tread design, causes them to slip sideways. I live in an area that has snow and ice all winter long and I have fallen a few times and almost fallen several more. They have gotten even worse with age (this is their 3rd winter). In the past I had Sorel boots that did not slip, and also lasted for 25 years! Not a fan of these boots.

I had high hopes for these boots as I live in Minnesota and I need sturdy boots for walking outdoors. They are definitely warm but very uncomfortable for long periods of walking outside. They've started to bruise the inside of my ankle, which makes it painful to walk with them on, as well as rub the back of my ankles. They would likely be fine for standing outside without a lot of movement involved, but not for taking winter walks.

I'm a size 9 and my foot was swimming in it, I would order a size smaller. Returned for a smaller size.

I'm returning them; they were huge for my feet even though I followed directions; they are also too big and clunky in weight. Really disappointed because I love Bog boots!

Too small and also very clunky. Rub on my heel as well so never wore them outside of trying them on and walking around the house. Lost email with order number, please send so I can change this review :)

The fit on this new style boot was horrible. Wider and not the same comfort. Please BOGS don't change the last on the classic mid boot. So many of us ladies who do real farm work appreciate the lighter weight and grab handle, and more.

I have owned an original pair for 15 years. The old ones are far more comfortable. The soothed is soft, warm and waterproof. The sole auctually bends. The new ones feel like a piece of iron is on the bottom they do not bend and are not comfortable ! Too bad, I returned them

Seam along the bottom popped open at five months. Customer service will refund money, but won't replace with a similar boot, says they don't make that style anymore. It was a neoclassic mid, so seems like a replacement in a different color would be simple. Bought because of the guarantee, since all the reviews I had seen from bogs said they sent a replacement pair. Nope. Just a gift card, which is prefer not to use in cheap bog boots. Crappy boots. Crappy service.

I really wanted to like these, they are shorter and lighter. I expected them to be the perfect work boot. Sadly though, the shorter height of the boot causes them to rub my leg raw (even with tall socks), so they are useless and were a waste of money. I would return them if I could for something else, but I had to wear them to know there was a problem. Now I am stuck with boots I cannot wear.

Fit is very unusual. Bigger size too big. Smaller too small. Need widths.

The boots are too heavy and therefore uncomfortable. They don't fit well either.

Extremely uncomfortable. I wish I had returned them when I had the chance.

Sorry I like the boot, but for Minnesota winters they are not warm at all. They would be great in the fall and spring but not winter.

I have a pair of the wide calf boots that were heaven the moment I put them on. The heel sunk in and cushioned from day one. For this year I thought I would order a shorter boot so I could wear them into spring but sadly bogs has cheaped out and these boots are horrible 2023! The inserts are hard as rocks and the boots are super super narrow, feels like it's strangling my foot from all sides. I've been a champion of bigs boots for years but I guess now I'm going to have to go shopping for a new farm boot company. This is what happens when a company starts making fashion boots instead of good comfortable work boots.
