These were amazing: comfortable for all day hiking & clean up beautifully to wear out for dinner in the evening with a nice shine with leggings and a skirt. Throughly tested in a two week trip to Scotland highland bogs and city wear. (I added wool liners for the cold ;)

These boots are surprisingly comfortable. I have very sensitive feet and need lots of cushioning and support. I put my standard gel insoles in, added thick socks, and hiked comfortably for 4 miles. The tread grip is excellent and they are lighter and less clunky than you'd expect. The soles are fairly flexible; you can feel bigger rocks without it being painful, but the flexibility improves grip. I've walked through ankle deep water and mid calf snow and have stayed dry and toasty. I measured my foot using Columbia's system and the length is a little big (though I suspect the next smaller size would be too short). I have small feet and ankles, and the foot part is big on me. But after adding the inserts and thick socks, it is doable. I have mid size calfs and that part is also big and flaps a bit, but I like that I can tuck my pants in and not be squeezed. Oh, and the blue-green color is pretty and the overall design is sleek and stylish.

This is the most comfortable rain boot I have ever worn. There is so much cushion in the sole and it has great traction. The color is bright and shiny and I have already gotten so many compliments on them.

I ordered these in red & loved them so much, I ordered the teal color as well! They are a little big, but if you plan to wear thick socks they will be fine! They have cushioning that makes them comfortable for a long day. Also, you can't see in the photos, but the Columbia logo is on the back, which I thought looked nice.

I love these boots. Bought a pair for myself and my daughter in law. I love the bright teal color and they are very functional and comfortable. I wear a half size and ordered up. They fit perfectly.

Love these! Bought a purple pair last spring and purchased 2 blue pairs for friends. We go stomping in the woods and on trails with our little boys and these are perfect. Not tight in the calf yet still cute. All three pairs arrived super fast.

I’m 5’0” and commute/walk a lot. Size 5.0, relatively low arch, average calves. Comfy footbed. I tried Hunter Original Tour and the shaft height was just a bit too tall, especially walking up stairs - these fit better. The top is roomy enough that I can slide my hand down the back, so I’m not sure about keeping out rain in a downpour. Dark raspberry/black is a muted purple, not too garish. I might swap for black.

I have been looking for a good pair of rain boots. I like my boots a bit bigger so in sneaker I'm a 8.5 so the rain boots I got a 9and they fit great and very comfy!!!! The color is darker which I like it's more of a teal. Also I like that there is tread on the bottom.

I love these boots. Got them in Cloudburst/Ginko which is a beautiful neutral greenish-blue I can’t quite pin down. I call them teal, my husband says they’re emerald green, and my daughter says they’re blue. They are shiny but not high-gloss. They have good cushioning and are super comfortable and have stood up well so far in rainy northwest weather. Removable insoles for those who need it but I find them comfortable enough for commuting to and from my office. Highly recommend.

These rain boots are not too heavy and they look stylish with your outfit AND they keep you dry! I had them on for about 6 hours and they felt like regular boots.

These boots are great! They fit true to size and the color is gorgeous. They are extremely comfortable. I almost hate to wear them for their intended purpose because they are so nice!

These are great for wearing in heavy rain. My feet stayed warm and dry. When I went back out and it was still raining it was a pleasure to put them on again.

I was looking for a boot that was quick and easy to slide on when running to the gym, grocery store or into work in sloppy conditions. This is it!!! Very comfortable, cute and stylish. Exactly what I was looking for!

I adore everything about these boots! They are extremely comfortable and function perfectly. They are warm and the color can't help but make you smile. I wore them on a ski trip where it rained all day. They kept me dry and warm on the walk to and from the lodge and I received so many compliments! I 100000% recommend.

So very comfortable and easy on/off. The color just isn't me. Was hoping for more of a cranberry. Turned out to be plum or wine colored. Quite dark. Wish there were more color choices.

These are awesome. I wear an 11W (I need a very wide toe box) and these fit great. If you have "normal" width feet, you'll have plenty of room for thick socks. It was a bit snug but I don't usually wear super thick socks. I felt comfortable walking in them and while they're obviously rain boots they are still stylish enough to wear with skinny jeans.

I love these boots! They are just roomy enough so that I can wear my fall thick socks, and the calf is wide enough for me to fit my jeans in (my calves are already kind of wide--so they may feel too wide to some folks). I've done a decent amount of walking around my muddy property and they've held up well. They are still rainboots, so I don't expect them to be as comfy as hiking boots. The rubber has decent give, but it will still "bend in" and be uncomfortable if you are having to do a lot of stairs/squatting down. If you want a rainboot for gardening, I'd suggest something a bit shorter. But for general yardwork, and slogging through my muddy driveway, these are tops! I am glad I got a pair of the purple ones before they were gone: a great bright color!

I tried three other rain boots (different brands) before this one- all had design or quality issues and had to be returned. What these might lack in style, compared to other brands with on-trend prints, they make up for in comfort. These boots have good shaft width so that you can wear regular pants without discomfort. I normally wear 7 1/2 and ordered a size 7 as the other reviews mentioned they ran a bit large- and the 7 fit perfectly, and could probably fit a thicker sock when it is colder. They are very comfortable for walking. They don't shift around a lot and they bend easily with my ankle/feet. After a week with them I'm buying a second pair in case they get discontinued. Highly recommend!

Love, Love these boots. They are so comfortable and there is ample room for tucking in skinny jeans or leggings. They are stylish and oh so comfortable. I can't wait to wear them all over my up coming trip to England.
