ColumbiaWomen's Hiking Boots Waterproof, Heavenly CAMO Omni-Heat

I live in London, where the weather does not become ridiculously cold but is still wetly miserable during the winter. I also walk a fair amount (12k+ steps a day, every day) and expect my footwear to survive this.I generally buy UK Size 5 shoes (occasionally a UK Size 5.5 if available). I purposefully bought a size larger - a UK Size 6 - and they fit perfectly (width and length). This is when I wear "normal" socks, but as the laces are fully adjustable, you can still tighten/loosen for thicker socks.Fallen arches have meant I needed to put insoles into these boots, but I still have plenty of room after messing with the laces slightly.Having worn them for roughly five out of twelve months, the treads are only slightly worn and otherwise they're still in perfect condition.I have terrible circulation and my feet don't feel cold even slightly in these boots. They are super comfortable, the fluffy fake fur (which goes from the top of the interior of the boot to just above the ankle) is surprisingly toasty, and they survive London puddles, which is all I could ask for.

Love, love love these boots!!! I'm writing this review from my husband's Amazon account. I bought the 8.5 US and they fit my UK 6'5 feet perfectly. I've worn them for everyday walking and mountain hiking for two years now and they're still waterproof and look good as new. When they finally need replacing I'll definitely be getting more of these :-)

These arrived just in time on my day of flying away to Harbin ice festival in China. Got one size bigger as per reviews, wore normal soaks with room for thicker if needed. They kept my feet very toasty to the point i was sweating, amazingly at the temp of -24c. Wished they were higher to cover my knees as those were frozen, whilst walking arround with wind chill factoring it felt -30c. Walking in snow qas no problem but not so on ice, skidded a few times. Did amazingly well keeping me feet dry and warm. Where the fur is artound the lacing nof so good as jeep getting caught when tryinb yhd adjust, tufts of fur came away. Other wise boyh thumbs up.

When I placed the order I selected UK size 5 from the drop down box. Aware that Columbia are an American brand and the sizing is different, but I was reassured by the positive comments & UK prefix on the size order options.Unfortunately I was sent a pair of boots that were an American size 5/UK size 3, so way too small for me!!Really frustrating because I had waited over a week for delivery & they have now sold out of my correct size. No issues with the boots themselves, well made, warm and I would have happily kept them if the order had been correct.

These are the kind of boots you can wear somewhere smart as theyre not bulky. They do the job in hand, theyre very warm, and for me have kept my feet dry and warm in the snow in Iceland .They arent a loose boot, however i didnt find them tight either unlike the other reviewers. They have laces so you can make them as tight or loose as you wish. I have wide feet and they feet me just dandy !!The soles are lovely and cushioned to walk on, no worries there.RE SIZING ... i think the reason some others struggle with the fit is because they didnt get the right size for them.... you have to go up a FULL SIZE. not a half, get the complete size bigger, and hey presto, they will fit !!

I used this during my winter holiday in the arctic circle 5 months ago and I must say that this made life easier. It’s very light and not bulky. I’m usually a size 3 UK but upon reading the reviews I decided to buy a size 5, but even then I could only fit 1 thin socks and 1 thick socks. I usually have cold feet due to bad circulation so I used heat pads as well as the 2 socks and that saved my life. I could stay for hours and hours outside in negative degrees and my feet is still toasty warm.

Disappointed to find out that it's still won't fit properly after I went a size up per previous reviews' advice. Also I already loosen up the laces - did not help that much. It feels snug when wearing normal socks, even more so with thick ones. What a shame because I really like it. I had to return it and wait for another size to come up. Sigh. Overall pleased with amazon and their team. Item came in perfect condition. Only giving a 3 because of the frustration I have with the size.

I bought these boots to keep my feet warm at work and as advised bought a size up. I was not disappointed. These are the most comfortable and warm boots I have ever worn, easy to clean too. Highly recommend them.
