Customer Reviews Bogs Ultra High

Loved these Classic boots on a recent trip that took me to Antarctica, landing on-shore by stepping off of zodiac into nearly calf-deep icy water. (The boots were supplied, on loan, on Board the ship.) Warm, waterproof, excellent grip in snow, and on crumbly cinder gravel and dirt, comfy all day worn with thick [snow-boarding] all-wool socks. [worn in ice water, in snow, and on gravel, in air temperatures from high teens up to low 30s] I wanted a pair of my own. These boots are almost perfect. 1. DO read and heed other reviews and DO order a size up from your usual size. (I had to return the size 7 which was short enough to almost cramp my toes, and get the size 8) (I regret that I didn't peek into the ones that were provided on the ship, to verify the size) 2. If you have very narrow feet, you may not like them. The Bogs Classics I ordered for myself feel a bit wider than the ones I wore on the ship. Not sure if I'll keep them to wear with thicker socks, or return them with hopes that Bogs will offer these in a narrow width (NO other modifications, please, - well ... maybe just an eeensy bit wider in the upper calf).

Love these comfy boots. My feet were always cold before I got them...Now theres no cold feet anymore when Im shoveling snow . The cushion soles are fantastic, as are the pull up handles. I must admit that they are a little difficult for me to take off...but very easy to get on.

These were great when shoveling snow and playing outside with the kids. We recently had a foot of snow and they kept my feet warm for a few hours when we were out sledding with the kids. They are easy to get on, are lightweight and are truly waterproof. They are too warm to wear for any extended period indoor but I would expect that from a winter boot.

Only had them for a week. Better to ask for a review in a few more weeks. Finding the right size was not so simple. Help on the website would be good. Sock recommendations would be good as well.

Comfortable and warm

I originally saw these boots in a store that sells high quality active apparel that I visit once a year about 1 1/2 hours from my home. I wasn't familiar with the Bogs brand until later that year when National Geographic and Lindblad recommended we purchase a different style of Bogs warm waterproof boots to wear on a cruise in Alaska where we would need to step in and out of frigid water from inflatable boats and then hike for miles. I loved those boots for their warmth and comfort. So this year I decided I wanted the Summit Herringbone boots. It's a good thing I read a number of reviews before ordering them from the Bogs website because I needed a whole size smaller than the Bogs boots I purchased for the Alaska cruise. I've only worn them once but feel they are comfortable, warm and waterproof as I wore them on a cold slushy day. I do like the unique herringbone pattern and look forward to purchasing additional Bogs boots in the future.

I normally wear a size 11 narrow in dress shoes. I have another pair of Bogs size 11 that fit perfect. Unfortunately my toe came right to the end on these. I am exchanging them for the classic winterberry. I hope they fit. Great customer service!

I used these bogs for winter work boots. They work great in the snow, water, mud and have great traction on ice! I bought a pair myself and while i was working my boots got a rip in the top by getting snagged on something while working, bogs company generously sent me a gift card to purchase a new pair!

I needed quality pair of boots that would keep my feet warm and last for a couple years. I have always wanted a pair of Bogs. I looked at all the top name brand companies for a pair of boots from North Face, Coach, Lands End and many more. I found these to be most suitable for cold snowy weather. They also were the right price. I usually wear size 8.5 so I ordered size 9 and they fit perfect with enough room for thick socks. Only downfall is getting them worn in, very stiff and hard to get used to walking in them at first.

I am outside from morning to night. I wear these boots in the snow when the temperature ranges from 10 to - 30. If it is 0 or colder I don't plan on staying out for more than 30 minutes as your feet sweat and soon they are cold. I love these boots, wish they had a little more bottom support for my old feet but I'll still buy another pair.

rain and snow use, I have very tender feet - so a little hot spot on the heel, so put a band aid on and they're fine I do love them, but having worn through a pair of the original bogs I miss those! The original gripped my feet, were SO comfortable and never caused any hot spots. These seem more durable tho'

the plastic part of the shoe presses against the bridge / top of my foot. Its a bit uncomfortable. I don't think it will stretch or get better. I did order a full size larger and was concerned, but it was a better fit length wise. I like these boots, but may have to try a different syle.

I use these shoes primarily for work in an outdoor produce department. In the winter waterproof shoes that keep your feet warm are an absolute necessity. I have yet to brace the depths of winter with them, but so far they have done great. I will be interested to see how durable they are long term. I often find the classic bogs have the huge "moon boot" look (not my favorite) and while these are a bit bulky, they seem a little slimmer than some other styles. They are true to size (I am a size 10 and 10 is what i ordered) but are loose fitting around the ankle like a standard rainboot would be.

I love many things about these boots -- the light weight, the fabric, the style, comfort, vegan, etc. The major downside is that although they are advertised as completely waterproof and machine wash- and dryable, once the plush interior is wet, it takes a LONG time to dry, even in the dryer. I tried to air-dry them and the toes stayed wet for a week. The dryer heat and tumbling needed to get them fully dry apparently eroded the glue attaching the fabric to the sole, so one quick walk in snow and my feet were SOAKED! Same thing happened to my daughter's boots. So now we know to only wear them in dry conditions.

I spend a LOT of time walking my dog, both around the city and in the woods/mud/muck. In this brutal winter, warm and waterproof boots were a must. I've only had these for two or three weeks and I'm already SO glad I own them. They've been great. As someone with high arches, I will say that they do fit a bit tightly across the top of my foot. This took some getting used to, but now it does not bother me at all. DEFINITELY go a size up if you are a half size. The only time my feet have ever been cold in these was when I put them on over socks that were already damp from sweat - clean, dry socks are a must if you want to stay warm in these guys.

I love that these boots are fabric instead of rubber. I walk a lot, and the fabric is much more comfortable than rubber wellies for long walks. I also like the lining--the boots look very cute with the tops rolled down. I'm a 7 in almost all my shoes, but the 7 was way too small. I returned the 7's, and the Bogs website was out of 8's, so I had to reorder somewhere else. The 8's fit well.

I live in Portland, OR, and wanted some warm rain boots to wear to out, to soccer games, and walking the dog. They are very warm and comfy. The sole is not too sturdy, they feel like slippers, which I am fine with. I do not find them to be waterproof, and I am disappointed in that as I need them to be! Water does seem to bead off of them when dropped from above, but when I am standing in wet grass (which is one of the reasons I got them), my socks get wet. I would not wear them through a puddle. Not sure if I got a bad pair? The sizing is small - I am an 8.5, ordered a 9, and they fit perfectly. If you want warm, cute boots, and not necessarily for wearing in rain storms, I'd recommend them.

I have two Siberian Huskies that demand exercise. During the winters, I usually walk 20+ miles a week wearing these boots. This is my second pair of Bogs and I would highly recommend them. They are not super stylish, but I do wear them to work during the Chicago snow storms. The are great boots that are easy to get on and off, which is a huge plus.

We buy these boots for our lawn technicians every year. They are very durable and comfortable. Only complaint we have had is they are too warm in the summer.

I've been waiting for BOGS to offer a pattern that was neither obnoxious or boring monochrome. These are perfect! They are warm and dry and I've been walking miles in snow, slush, rain and single digit temperatures (Fahrenheit). Four out of five stars because the traction is poor. I've had to clip on spiky-traks

I've been on the hunt for the perfect flat casual boot (with traction) all winter. I had such high hopes for these after all the positive reviews. I have skinny calves, low volume feet, and wear a 9.5 (sometimes even a 9) in most brands. I ordered these in 10 and 11. The 11's fit with a thick sock, but were way too sloppy in the ankle area, a smidge big in the calf, and overall looked very sloppy on me. My mom (average calves, narrow foot, typically wears a 10.5) tried them on and they fit her perfectly except they were tighter in the toe box than she preferred. The 10's fit me better (though I had to wear a thin sock and they were still fairly sloppy in the ankle), but because they are so low-volume over the foot, the toe box was just too narrow for them to be comfortable and my toes felt squished. Love that these are waterproof, washable, stylish, warm, etc. (especially love the heather gray color!). If the shaft/height was 2-3 inches taller and they had a wider toe box (less rounded) they would 100% be my dream boots!

These are great boots! I have some other Bogs but they are a bit too big for causual wear. These boots fit but could be a half size bigger for a more comfortable fit. I can't wear thick socks. Thin, moisture wicking socks are the best for this boot. My feet sweat a bit. Wish these had a bit more breathablity to help with this. Overall, its a great boot to wear in cold rain or snow weather. Looks good with tucked in jeans or leggings and bootcut pants. I would go up a size if your more a half size foot.

I just received these boots for Christmas and I've worn them almost everyday since. They are the most comfortable pair of shoes I've ever owned. They don't get dirty easily, either. After reading others' reviews I decided to buy a size 8 (I'm normally a 7) and I'm very happy that I did. They fit perfectly. I do wish that they kept my feet a bit warmer as I'm currently trudging the harsh Michigan winter but they are still warmer than any other pair of boots I own AND they are certified for below 30, not the 40 that I probably need so that was my own fault anyway. Overall, I love the way they look and feel. However, I will be honest in that my mother thinks they are ugly and my boss told me they look like house slippers. It's really just about your personal taste.

These run very small. I wear a 7 1/2 and I ended up with a 9. They are comfy and very cute. When I washed them they took a week to dry. I do love them though!

I bought these boots thinking I need some solid waterproof boots for rainy winter riding here in Portland; these boots are really really well built and are actually a little too bulky and bombproof and snow-winter ready for the likes of Midwest winters than for raininess and relatively mildness of PDX winters. I did return these boots and ordered the highliner pro's.
