Customer Reviews Oboz Ousel Low B-Dry

I LOVE these shoes. I do not recall when was the last time I found shoes like this but I certainly know they discontinued them, hence I ordered second pair of these. They fit like a glove, very comfortable, keeps my feet dry and warm in the winter.

I have always found Oboz very comfortable, and supportive. Most shoes/boots I end up buying inserts but with this brand for me the support is perfect. I find for foot wear I always need to try them on. It seems that manufactures may make changes or my feet have changed even to my standby brands. My feet tend to be narrow side, with good arch and narrower heel this brand gives very stable foot bed. The size I have is 8.5.

The shoe store sales person recommended oboz for relief of bunions that I now have. They are wide enough and have done the trick.

I bought these shoes for a walking trip through Ireland. They are a good shoe and well made. I needed a 8 narrow and could not finf any shoes narrow enough for my feet. These were the narrowest I could find and they worked by wearing two pair of socks.

Purchased these to replace another pair of Oboz that I used for overall travel - city walking and easy trails.I like the style of these, and the fact that they are listed as waterproof. That being said, the shoes are heavier and stiffer than I expected. I have walked several miles in them and I still feel like I am breaking them in. They do not feel like durable sneakers that go from trail to city, but rather hiking shoes that fall short.

Great fitting shoe and the best for hiking and walking. Only complaint is that theres no flair or pizazz in the color/design. Hard to find fun and cool and functional outdoorsy footwear.

This is my second pair of Oboz. As with the first pair (hiking boots that have taken me up and down many mountain trails), this new pair of hiking shoes was comfortable right out of the box. Even brand new, my new shoes got me through two weeks of sightseeing in Japan without a hint of rubbing or discomfort. My feet loved themand my eyes loved the burgundy color!

Nice shoes

Ive been having a difficult time finding comfortable hiking boots, so I was so excited when I tried my new Oboz and my feet felt better immediately! No more residual foot pain with my new boots!

I was looking for the perfect shoes to wear on a European tour that involved some light hiking and walking of about 6 miles/day. The shoes also needed to be nice looking enough to wear out to casual dinners. These shoes are comfortable, supportive, and handsome. However, when I stood in them for more than an hour, the balls of my feet hurt. Unfortunately there isn't enough room for an orthotic. So: overall I like them, but they're not quite comfortable enough to trust for all-day wear.

I really dislike them. I just waited too long to return. Theyre too ugly for casual wear, and not as sturdy as I like for hiking. Theyre an in-between shoe that dont do either thing well.

I am very pleased with my purchase and the quality I have come to expect from Oboz. My pair of Ousel low waterproof fits me perfectly, they are comfortable on local hikes and provide great support to my ankles.

Have 3 older pairs of Oboz, all fit well (old sizing). One starting to fall apart. Wanted to replace it. New sizing does not work! Even in wide, there is not enough room in the toe box. Very disappointed! Good shoes, but not good fit for me.

I found them to be hot and too heavy on my feet, so they didn't work for me, but I think that's really the norm for waterproof hiking shoes

Very disappointed as I have always purchased my shoes in wide width and was excited to see this shoe offered in wide. This is the narrowest wide I have ever put on my feet. I was unable to put them on with a light sock. I feel this is a huge design flaw, yet I have to pay to return them. Been doing business for probably 30 years with Bean.but this may cause me to rethink my purchases

Did not fit and had to return. Not wide!! Probably mid advertised

I really wanted to keep these shoes but they were just too narrow. Sadly, I returned them.

I usually buy another brand of hiking shoes which LL Bean no longer carries. I thought I would try these. I wore them for a day and returned them. I'm sure many people love them but I did not.

I've bought various styles of Oboz hiking shoes in the past and really liked them. The toe box in this style was too small though, so I had to send them back. (The length was fine, just too tight against my little toe.)

Ordered my usual size, got a heel blister the first time I took a longer walk. Perhaps a half size larger would have worked? I returned them and ordered a different shoe; 1/2 size larger.

Too stiff in the collar area. Returned the shoe. I need a strong footbed but more comfortable around the opening.
