Best Snow / Rain Boots I've Ever Owned. Waterproof. Comfortable. Cute!, January 21, 2010
Experience with use:
I live in northern Japan where winters are harsh. The snow on the edges of my driveway is about 4ft deep, and even deeper in the drifts. I did a lot of research before buying them, because I needed something that would _work_.
Quality/Description:
These boots are, just as advertised, waterproof. I have stood in deep snow digging out my car and shoveling, and my feet and jeans stay dry. These are just about knee-high and the edges are made from a fabric that feels like a SCUBA wetsuit.
Not only are they very practical, they are _very cute_ and I receive compliments on them wherever I go.
I love the handles on the boots, which make them easy to take off and slip on, especially as we're always taking our shoes off here in restaurants and whatnot.
Fit:
My regular shoe size is a 7.5, and the pair I bought were 8s. With a thick pair of winter socks, which is what I'd expect to wear in boots anyway, they fit perfectly. I have worn them for hours on end, and they are very comfortable.
Cons:
Because the sides are stretchy, the only two minor things I don't like is that if I tuck in my straight-legged jeans, they look a little bulky under the boot fabric. However, with tapered-leg "skinny" jeans, this wouldn't be an issue. The back heel is made from the same material as the front of the boot - I wish the harder heel material came up a little higher - closer to the ankle. I have feeling if I wore _thinner_ socks, the heel could chafe and become annoying.
Overall:
Highly recommended. Considering buying another pair in a shorter boot for days that aren't as snowy. Out of all the winter boots I've owned, these stand up to snowy weather the best.

Love These Boots!, January 14, 2010
This review is from: Bogs Women's Classic Hi Autumn II Boot (Apparel)
I bought these boots because my old boots were heavy and I was tired of tying and untying them. I walk my dog every day in a snowy area and wanted something light and easy to get on and off. Tried these Bogs and love them. They are comfortable, warm and stylish and I love being able to pull them on and off. Couldn't be happier!!

The greatest boots ever, October 14, 2009
No matter what color or design you want, these bogs boots are the best ever. Warm, waterproof, and very comfortable--these will take me through many Winters and wet Spring and Falls. They are not wide and clunky, they conform to your foot and the leg length holds the boots on. My daughter bought these for me as a present, and I couldn't be happier.
