  Columbia Sportswear Men's Bugabootoo Hiking Boot By: Columbia Sportswear Average Rating: 4.0 Total Reviews: 11 More Information Rubber not good quality  On: 2008-11-17After wearing only a couple dozen times the rubber started to come apart on these where they are stiched together at the seam between the upper and lower sections. I expect that from a 19 dollar mart-mart boot, not something from Columbia. Disappointing. Poor On: 2008-11-17After wearing only a couple dozen times the rubber started to come apart on these where they are stiched together at the seam between the upper and lower sections. I expect that from a 19 dollar mart-mart boot, not something from Columbia. Disappointing. Columbia also wont respond to inquiries about their product. Buy something else made by someone else. rubber cracked on all three pairs I've had  On: 2008-03-27Ive given up on Columbias boots... Ive had 3 pairs over the past few years and the rubber part over top of the foot has cracked open on all 3 letting snow/water in. Its too bad really because otherwise I liked them... they were warm and comfortable for long winter walks and snowshoeing. Anyway, they get a 2-star rating from me. Great boot, needs more colors though  On: 2008-03-26The boot fits good and size was accurate. It is very comfortable from toe-tip to lower calf/shin. They are very stiff until you break them in which may take a while if you live in an area like me where you have to travel a ways to get to snow. I only wish that there was a better color selection for the wide sized boot. I wanted them but the fit was not right On: 2008-02-09The Columbia Bugabootoo boots were everything I wanted, except, when they arrived and I tried them on, they were not wide enough to accommodate my bunion. So the boots were fine but my own physical problem prevented me from keeping them. comfortable, great boots  On: 2008-01-12These boots keep your feet warm in any temp, and the snowshoe lip works great. They are also very comfortable boots, which is important if you plan on hiking or snowshoeing in them. id recommend these boots to anyone looking for some new winter boots. columbia sportswear On: 2008-01-12Very pleased with the product. The shipping was amazing, I could not believe how fast, due to the holidays. I will buy again on Amazon. Thanks great snow boots On: 2007-02-01These boots are warm and comfortable. I had frostbitten my feet in the past and my feet get cold quickly. These boots allow me to stand out on the cold, snowy ground for a long period of time without getting cold.

Bugabootoo boots On: 2007-01-15The boots were a gift to my son and he really likes the fit. At first the fit felt odd; almost like wearing ski boots since his ankles were really locked in place. But he said that was good after wearing them a few times. As well he said there is lots of protection on the bottom. A Boot with an Achilles Heel On: 2007-01-11Its been about 2 months since purchasing this boot. The 3rd party vendor had a great price and delivered on time, so 5 stars there. The shoe however get mixed reviews. Being a long time Columbia customer, I wasnt surprised by the out of the box quality except that I remember thinking how flimsy the plastic speed lace clips looked... sure enough one has already broke and I no longer use the speed clip feature, always keeping them laced with fingers crossed on the remaining three. (As an aside, Columbia customer service also gets a mixed review on this. While the clip would be covered under warranty I still will need to cover the freight one way. While this is the industry standard as pointed out to me by the on line customer rep, I dont feel I should pay one more cent for an under-engineered fault of Columbias. And really, do you want to buy something from a just average company?) Otherwise the boots do what I had expected, relatively light weight, waterproof, and comfortable, with just enough flex in the uppers to not chafe yet provide support. Grip is good too on varying surfaces except glare ice. I agree with other reviewers that this is an active wear boot, and would not recommend it for sub zero Fahrenheit temps and long periods of inactivity. And, if you overnight with them, plan on sleeping with them to prevent freezing since the liners are not removable. For my 45 minutes a day walking commute to work and day hikes in the upper Midwest the boot works well. Would I buy them again? Not without a lot more research for an alternative (preferably with a metal speed lace clip!). Comfortable & Sturdy On: 2006-11-10Great boot with excellent waterproofing. Extremely comfortable and easy to wear. Columbia scores again! Comfortable & Sturdy On: 2006-11-09Great boot with excellent waterproofing. Extremely comfortable and easy to wear.
