Too Narrow! Otherwise they would have been perfect!

Let's start off with the same thing I said in my other reviews of the Slip-on Snow Clogs in this class.

I have owned several different Snow Clogs. Mostly because I could never find exactly one that fit my criteria. I was looking for something that was causal, warm, waterproof and a slip-on. I live in Chicago and as of the last two years the winter weather has gotten colder and we are getting more snow than ever. I need to find a Clog that would work good in the snow, keep my feet dry and warm enough for the zero degree days and the last criteria was to be able to wear during the day in the office with a pair of Khaki pants. So big boots were out!

I currently have 3 pairs of different slip-on winter mocs, Keen Whistlers, Merrell Shiver Moc, and these Salomon Snowclogs. They are all Waterproof, insulated, have snow traction Soles, and of course a slip-on style...I love slip-ons.

I sent them back...they could have been my favorite had they been wider. They were warm (warmer than the other 3 and along the same warmth of the Snowclog 3)...waterproof but way too narrow and tight...I was uncomfortable within minutes and I tried two size...same problem! The Sole isn't as snow friendly (Compared to the Whistler, Snowclog, and the Shiver) but still great! They are more like a slip-on gym shoe style than a moc or clog. They were harder to slip on than all the other ones. If I would have kept them maybe they would have loosen up or stretched out but I couldnt take that chance. If TNF redesigns these to be wider this could be one of the best and nearly meeting all my criteria. Plus TNF has great service and a Lifetime warranty!!!! Maybe next year they will get it right.
