Columbia Womens Ice Maiden II Snow Boots

These fit true to size and are quite cute to boot (pun intended). My feet stay warm and dry while outside shoveling snow. The added fur around the top of the boot provides an extra layer of insulation protection from the elements when the boot is fully laced up and tied. I find these boots to have good traction too - I felt like these gripped the ground well to prevent slipping. These are definitely a good pair of boots to have on hand on snowy days! I’ve always found Columbia to be a good brand, and these boots confirm that to still be true. I would definitely recommend these to anyone who has to deal with cold or snowy winter weather!

I was a little apprehensive on spending 100 dollars on this boots, but I found that they are well worth it. The fit was spot on and I found them to be extremely comfortable. They look like they are well made and I would expect them to hold up well. I just came back from a long walk with my dog in 30 degree weather. My feet feel amazing and stayed warm the whole time. I wore I high quality wool blend sock and I would not be afraid to use these in zero degree weather. I would highly recommend these boots for anyone in a cold weather environment. I just walked in a little snow so I can’t at this time comment on how water proof they are but judging be the quality and material I would guess they would be fine in a wet or snowy environment. I have had some 300 boots before but didn’t want to spend that much again so it tried these. They are every bit as good as any high dollar boot I have worn in the past. Read more

Warm, dry, and comfy. I could not ask for anything more! I have a wide forefoot and high volume (great arches!), and these are comfy in a wide width. I did go up a half size and that gave me enough room for thick wool boot socks and I can still spread and wiggle my toes. The laces get snug so my feet don't slip and snow does not slip down into the boot. I tested these today in drifts about 8 inches deep and they easily handled the snow and 25 degree temperature.

These boots are amazing. I sized up a half a size which I probably didn’t need to do, but I had bought some electric socks and I wanted to make sure there would be room. I’ve worn these number of times not even so much when there’s snow but because they’re comfortable. They lace up well and the laces stay tied. I haven’t had any issues slipping. My feet are dry and the price is excellent. I did not give them a five star review because I don’t feel that there is any arch support. I could probably stand to put another insole in these and also the ankle area is extremely loose. They don’t tighten up as much as you would like, but other than that, which was a no big deal for me these are wonderful. Read more

Excellent traction even on ice, and very comfortable! The calf part is very warm but the toe box is less insulated; you definitely need thick socks if you're going to be standing around or in the snow. Some other reviews mentioned chafing or discomfort in the heel, but I haven't had any issues at all. Relatively easy to take on and off compared to other snowboots I've owned. Does a great job keeping snow out, not sure about how they'd do with puddles or heavy rain. Read more

Warm, waterproof, and well-fitting. They did give me a few blisters while I was breaking them in but it wasn’t terrible. Traction seems good (although I go out of my way to avoid slippery surfaces). Also they’re very cute and I get compliments on them! Read more

Wish I had checked the reviews before buying. I bought the black/Columbia grey but what I received is clearly the oxygen version of the boot, just with black laces. You can see it is green in the photo. The box is labeled properly as black/columbia grey so it looks like this is a mistake that will keep repeating. It looks like lots of others have had the same experience from the reviews, so don’t risk it by ordering the black. I’ll be exchanging for another color (which is unfortunate because I originally bought this on sale so I’m losing my sale price). However the boot itself (color problem aside) seems quite nice. I wear a 7-7.5 across various shoe styles but I have sized up to an 8 for snow boots in the past to fit thick socks. I got an 8 and while they are definitely loose with normal socks they fit wonderfully with some thick ones. They don’t slide, they don’t rub my feet in a way that will blister, and they aren’t heavy. I haven’t worn them out and about yet but I imagine they will be quite comfortable and useful snow boots. Read more
