These boots are great! Very comfortable and very warm! I took these on several hikes in the snow. I did wear wools socks, and the boots performed amazingly! Traction on the snow was solid, but not on ice. Love the fact they a high, so they provide extra coverage. Waterproofing/repellent works well. I did step into ankle deep water and the boots stayed dry. I can confidently recommend these boots to keep your feet and toes warm and dry.

I bought one pair in Dec. 2022 and within three weeks bought a second pair. Why? The fit and comfort was extraordinary. Little did I know the boot would be leaking like a sieve within four months of winter use. I contacted Columbia by telephone and after twenty minutes on hold the bad news came.Columbia is sorry but they only stand by the items sold directly from their website.

Columbia Bugaboot II was the best winter boot I ever wore. Until the second year. After only wearing a couple of times the first year I stored the boot in my closet for the next season. When lacing the boot to wear in a recent snow the first boot laced up fine. When I bent down on a knee to lace up the second boot the first boot complete split open from the toe, down the complete side a total of about 10 inches. When I checked online for a warranty I found that the boots had a 1 year warranty. That unfortunately was how long the boot lasted after only a few uses.

Did some research into reviews on the BugaBoot III. Purchased in Boxing Day sales. Made a mistake thinking it was the Omni Heat version which it wasn't. Came withjust 200g of insulation without Omniheat liner. Even with good quality merino wool socks, my feet were cold in -5C degrees when the Bugaboot is rated down to -32C.Regret not choosing KEEN Summit County winter boots (300 g Keen.Warm™ upper insulation and 450 g Keen.Warm™ toe insulation).Size wise, another disaster as I was strongly recommended by the ales staff to take 8.5US when I insisted my normal boots size of 9.0US. At least I chose the WIDE fitting instead of the regular. Still, after walking in the snow for 1hr, the Bugaboots were tight and uncomfortable to the extent my foot hurts, even with ... MoreDid some research into reviews on the BugaBoot III.

At least I chose the WIDE fitting instead of the regular. Still, after walking in the snow for 1hr, the Bugaboots were tight and uncomfortable to the extent my foot hurts, even with one layer of merino wool socks (medium thickness).As to the quality of the construction, not only do these look cheap but inferior to KEEN SUMMIT COUNTY and NORTH FACE Chillkat 400 II. Should have gone for TNF or KEEN. Probably too late to return the Buggers for a refund so money down the drain. These Bugger boots are going straight into the rubbish bin unless Columbia can do something about a refund. Worst purchase ever on winter boots. Next stop Salomon Tundra Pro or Keen Summit County or TNF Chillkats 400s. Anything but the Bugger boots.I would not recommend the Bugger boots to anyone regardless, the buying experience has been dire so my mind is made up to on Salomon or Keen or TheNorthFace.
Had a pair of Bugaboot II’s that finally wore out after about 5 years. They were regular width size 11 and fit great. To get the same fit in these I had to get a wide 11.5, so they seem to run a little smaller with the update. Not really a negative, just something to be aware of. They also got rid of the speed hooks, which on a boot this tall is baffling. That being said I still like the boots. They’re supportive, lightweight, and I’ve found them to be ideal for winter hiking and snowshoeing. If these hold up as well/ are as waterproof as the last models they are good to go!
I bought these boots a year ago because of the price. I use them for ice fishing and once the tongues get wet, it's over. So melting snow and slushy conditions are not good if you are trying to keep your feet dry. not recommend for this type of activity. Not very warm either. Well, I guess that's arguable because with wet feet, nothing will be warm. I only write this review so someone doesn't take the inexpensive road like me and regret it.
I bought it 2 or 3 years ago; but today was the first time I wore the boots, hey I live in CA, we don’t have snow here. I stored it in a shoe cabinet all this time. I noticed some discoloration on the rubber part when I put them on; but NBD since I cared more about the functionality. I spent an hour in snow when I took them off the rubber part just fell apart, it feels very crunchy to the touch. I expect boots to last longer than 2-3 years with rare use, let alone no use.
These boots felt great the first few times I wore them. The fit on my foot is excellent and they're super lightweight. The soles have good grip on snowy inclines and overall the boot is quite functional. My only initial complaint was that the stretchy laces don't hold at all so it's a bit of a pain to lace the boots tightly.The biggest issue that I have run into after about a month, which makes the boots almost unusable, is that the upper part of the boot folds in and pushes into my ankle whenever the toe lifts up - such as when walking uphill or stepping on uneven ground. This crease pushing into my ankle is painful and causes me to alter how I walk to avoid the pain. This issue is a huge bummer for me because I thought I had found some great boots but now I ... MoreThese boots felt great the first few times I wore them.

You can see the crease in the photos coming from the third lace eyelet up from the toe.
This is a solidly built boot with excellent ankle and foot support as well as excellent waterproofing. The lacing system is great and together with the construction, imparts a very secure feeling in uncertain terrain. Deep snow traction is excellent, packed snow - middling - this doesn't have enough bite to feel very confident or maintain pace. Ice even less so, though most boots without studs aren't really meant for ice anyways.Cushioning is very good, not plush, but not too firm either. It's usable for long hikes even with my 240 pounds. I was very warm in 15F degree weather and feel confident this would take me down to subzero temps - in fact, I didn't even need my usual merino wool socks with this boot.In terms of fit, the wide worked very well for me, but ... MoreThis is a solidly built boot with excellent ankle and foot support as well as excellent waterproofing.

I wish I had gone a half size down before using this.
This boot is pretty substantial in its physical appearance. This doesn’t really come across in the stock website photos. That, coupled with 200g thinsulate lining should make for a super toasty boot or so you’d think. Personally I am not really impressed with the “warmth” that these provide over an extended period in colder temperatures.I first used these during the Buffalo Blizzard of 22’. At which point I was out shoveling and snow blowing for 30-45 minutes at a time before having to come in to warm my hands (and to a lesser degree my feet). But I was really surprised that my feet started to get cold when out for such a short time. Granted the temps were in the teens.I also found that with the large size of this boot makes driving my 4Runner dangerous because ... MoreThis boot is pretty substantial in its physical appearance.

So I will not ever recommend driving in them if you have large feet (14).On the plus side the boots are super comfy, very well made and the grippy sole saved me a number of times while tending to the snow which made the boots worth the purchase.
