The boots are so good , the previous one water was going ,no chance with this one. Dries quickly,I didnt use them so much ,we didnt have so many snow days .
I would recommend to anyone specially living in area with a lot of snow during the season

Took these on a trip to Colorado in December. I was standing in snow up to my knees/thighs for about an hour, -9 degrees outside, and my feet never felt even remotely cold. Admittedly, I had a good pair of ski socks under them, but they stayed dry and warm thanks to these shoes. Oh, and no slipping around either, pretty clever tread. Look good, work great!

Once there was a flesticle

I use this boot primarily for winter biking in the great white north of Alaska. The boot itself is a wonderful well made boot but it definitely does not live up to its extreme cold weather claim. After about an hour in zero below conditions my toes start getting numb. To counter act this I started using a vapor barrier along with my linear and wool sock combo. The boots them selves have great traction on both snow and ice and are extremely comfortable and easy to walk in.

I think this is a good boot. The vibram soles are really good in the snow. They're super warm. My boy likes them for snowshoeing because of the little lip deal on the back for a more bomber connection. He also hooks his gaiters on the D ring, nice feature.

Columbia should just get out of the boot business. They make great clothes but their boots are terrible. These boots are rated to -65 degrees. I'll guarantee you they come nowhere close to this. I went sledding with my daughter and I had on thick thermal socks.My feet were cold within a half hour.They'll keep your feet warm when its warm and conditions are ideal or if you aren't out for more than a few minutes, or if you're doing some serious hiking and generating your own heat,but when push comes to shove these boots are overpriced junk.

I liked the boots a lot, but I ordered them online and they were a little too big. I needed boots right away so I had to return them back to Backcountry and purchase the correct size elsewhere. I have the right size now and I love them. Very warm and comfy once they break in.

These boots are very warm and comforatable on the snow. As a Ski Patroller I needed something that I can put on and stay on the snow for hours. These boots worked exactly as I thought they would. I still have to break them in, but I expect to get a lot of seasons out of these.
