For winter storms around town, clunky, super-insulated boots can be overkill, but your feet still need protection. Next time the skies open up and unload big, fat snowflakes, pull the Columbia Women’s Bugaboot Omni-Tech Boots out of your closet, lace ’em up, and head outside. Columbia added Omni-Tech waterproof breathable membranes to these leather boots so you can tromp through snow and slush. Insulation warms your feet all the way to -25F, so “My toes get cold,” is no longer a valid excuse for staying indoors. AgION antimicrobial treatment on the internal lining and footbeds prevents stinkiness, and shock-absorbing midsoles with nylon shanks provide support. Omni-Grip rubber outsoles grab the ground, even when your driveway looks like an ice rink.
It is hard for me to say. These are pretty sleek winter boots compared to others on the market, but in general I would think the heavier winter boots could be tough to shift with.
I found these boots highly comfortable and flattering. Even with a light weight wool sock my feet still stayed warm in below frezing temps. I splashed around in snowy slush to check the waterproofing and could not have been happier. My feet stayed perfectly dry despite stomping through ankle deep slush. They can be worn with jeans without having to tuck the jeans into the boot and are not at all bulky. I was really happy with this purchase and was honestly shocked they performed as well as they did for such a smaller profile snow boot. Also has really good traction. I bought my usual shoe size and found that I could still wear a thicker sock without being uncomfortable and a smaller sock without shifting around. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a comfortable, warm snow boot that works around town but isn't huge.
For snowshoeing, including off trail, in the Tahoe area with feet that tend to get cold, which would be better: Columbia Bugaboot or the Sorel Carabou?
I live in N.H. and I appreciate a warm, waterproof, comfortable boot that is aggressive enough to wear on the most slippery days and not have to worry about tip-toeing through the ice and snow. This is also a nice looking boot. Most of all it is comfortable on my slightly wide foot. I have a hard time finding a boot that does not crunch the toe width area and these are great fitting and perfect. The sizing seem right on, I am usually a 6 or 6.5 and the 6.5 is what got and it's perfect. I (almost) can't wait for next winter to wear them.
I bought a half size larger and can wear thick socks, though I would say they fit true to size. They are very warm and have kept my feet dry in the wettest of snow. They have kept me on my feet walking across ice as well, great traction. I would buy these again in a heartbeat!
I bought these boots for my 11 yr. old daughter. They are true to size. She loves them because they keep her feet warm and are comfy to wear all day long. You won't go wrong with them.
