Columbia Women's Heavenly Omni-Heat Snow Boot

BEWARE SIZING ISSUES BEFORE ORDERINGI almost took off a star because of how off the sizing is, but if I had to rate everything else about the boots except the sizing, I’d rate them a 6/5. So I kept it at five stars.It’s important to start with the sizing. I wear a 6.5 in running shoes. I have had several pairs of Columbia minx mid boots in size 7 that fit perfectly, so I initially ordered a 7 in these. Way too small. Exchanged for a 7.5 and honestly they’re still kinda tight but not too tight to not be able to love them. I think an 8 would fit me better but I’ve already committed to this pair. I only wear thin socks with them because otherwise it’s too tight. So make sure you order at least a full whole size up from your normal shoe size.Aside from the off sizing, these boots are the boots I’ve been searching for for years. I am a dog walker in the Midwest. I walk miles every day in whatever weather comes at me. Previously, I always had to choose between boots that were comfortable to walk in (the Columbia minx mid) and boots that could handle the elements without my feet getting wet (Pajar grip).No boot that I have ever tried has been both comfortable and waterproof. Many reviews boast tons of waterproof boots as “comfortable,” but my standards for comfort considering my job are different. These are the only boots I’ve ever tried that do not leave my feet feeling weird after a long day of walking in them. The transition from warm weather (wearing running shoes every day) to cold weather (needing the warmth and/or protection of boots) is usually a difficult one for my feet and legs since most boots force me to walk slightly differently which can have effects if you walk as much as I do. These boots feel the same as my running shoes.Before I tried these, I tried the new Merrell boots that look like high top sneakers, and even those were too clunky for me. These boots are perfectly slim to as not to affect my normal walking stride.Enough about comfort. Let’s talk about the other pros. They are warm. As I mentioned earlier, because they fit small, I’ve been wearing thin socks with them. Just regular non-winter socks, and my feet haven’t gotten cold. The fur lining is very soft.And most importantly, the one thing that sets them above my previous favorites, the Columbia minx mid, they are actually waterproof. I walked through a heavy wet-snowstorm today and my feet stayed dry.I cannot recommend these boots enough. Just make sure to adjust the size you order.

I'm a dog walker in the city and walk 35-50 miles per week. I need shoes that are good on my feet, and when it's cold, I need ones that will also keep my feet warm. I bought these because of the thinner sole and how much easier it would be to walk in them than the clunkier winter boots I already had.Winter has barely started, but they have already been thoroughly tested. I survived a snow storm in them, walking 9 hours while it was continuously snowing. After the sun set, the snow turned to rain. My feet stayed warm, which is impressive because my feet are cold at 70F. As the rain melted some of the snow and puddles of water formed, I also got to test the waterproof aspect of these boots. I stepped in several puddles that covered the tops of my feet and they stayed dry.I just got back from a vacation in Denver where we went snowboarding, and my feet stayed warm and toasty in below freezing temps there, too.Since purchasing them, I have walked no fewer than 50 miles in them. They are comfortable, cute, warm, and easy on my feet. I loved them so much that I bought another pair, but in the Minx style. I also highly recommend them.I bought half a size up, an 8.5 instead of 8. I wear them with thick winter socks and they fit fine. Edit to add: I have them laced in a way where I can easily pull them on and off, so they're currently a little loose around my calves on purpose. They still keep me warm, but if I were to go sledding or playing outside in fresh snow, it would be super easy to tighten them up and wear them how they're supposed to be worn.I didn't get them for free or at a discount for this review. This is my first review ever, actually. I just really heckin love these boots and will be buying them any time I need boots for as long as Columbia makes them.Edit: Post winter updateI walked well over 900 miles this winter, and somewhere around 600 of them were in these boots. There are definitely signs of wear, but I will get at least one more winter, maybe two more out of them. Which doesn't seem like they last long, but I walk a lot more than the average person, 30,000 steps a day isn't unusual for me.These, along with the other Columbia boots I purchased, kept my feet very cozy all winter, including through several winter storms where the temps dipped below 0F. I always wore mid weight socks with them, but rarely had to use my thickest warmest socks with these boots.Regardless of how long they last, I will be purchasing more of them for as long as Columbia makes a version of them.Edit and update for 2022: I still love these boots, though I have been buying and wearing the Minx version (it's the same boot as far as materials and tech goes, but I think they're prettier). It's exclusively what I wear, and I'm still walking dogs. At peaks, I'm trekking 50 miles in these things, and my toes stay warm. I only wish they had more colour variety, but I'm not complaining when they keep me so comfortable while I work

Las compré para un viaje a un lugar con nieve y fueron muy útiles, mantienen loa pies secos y calientes. Compré medio número más grande por las reseñas y funcionó bien aunque con calcetas gruesas quedaron justas, tal vez un número entero más sea mejor.

Great boots, well-made, stylish - love them. I followed reviewers' size recommendations and ordered a full size up - my usual size is 7.5 or 8, size 9 in these boots fits me as if they were custom made for me! I have been wearing them indoors so far to break them in (piece of cake - no pain, no blisters when worn without socks), they feel cozy and warm, the are very comfortable and easy to put on and to take off. For once, I am looking forward to the colder weather .. to wear these boots and to enjoy them!

Hem görünüşü çok güzel hem de çok sıcak tutuyor. Gerçekten “heavenly omni-heat”.Klasik bir ayakkabıya göre 0,5 - 1 numara büyük, spor ayakkabı bedeninizle aynı numara alınabilir.Amazon US’den sipariş ettik, 5 günde ABD’den teslim edildi.

February 2021.Great boots! I had been waiting for them to come up on sale and I got it for 6500. Wore them in light snowfall this February and they kept my feet perfectly warm throughout. Absolutely loved the comfort and warmth. The grip at the sole was unexpectedly great. Columbia surely delivers what it claims.Update. May 2022.Wore them on glaciers and they provided pretty good grip and were waterproof. Although there are snow boots with better grips but for this price I think these worked just fine.Plus my feet was warm throughout. And I had paired them with normal socks. Although I'd still suggest to wear decathlon ski range socks for best results.The omniheat tech inside really works great in the cold temperatures.👌🏻
