Columbia Women’s Powder Down™

We’ve taken the look and warmth of a retro Columbia ski jacket and transformed it into a super protective, ultra-warm boot with seriously edgy style appeal.

The only qualm I have with these boots is the gaping at the top, very easy to get snow down into the boot and get your feet wet!
Conditions: Snowy
I would recommend this product.

While we have not gotten much snow yet (in Vermont) these boots have kept my feet warm and dry on some chilly and/or rainy days. My only dislike about this product is that they are a bit too big/loose at the top. It makes slipping them on easier and they slide over pants well, but there is still plenty of room. I would have preferred a more snug fit or something which would allow for them to be tightened. Other than that one issue, I have loved keeping my toes cozy in these colorful boots.
Also MAD PROPS to Columbia for even making women's boots in a 12. This is a hard size to find and words cannot accurately express my gratitude for not having to buy a more bland or less feminine product just to get the size I need.

I got these boots and already I want a 2nd pair. I haven't gotten to try them out in very cold weather but when I wear them my feet are warm and toasty. I've gotten a lot of compliments on them when I wear them.

I ordered these boots online and noticed right away when I received them that they are much larger around the calf than the picture seems to show. I was expecting something that sit pretty close to my leg but in reality there is an inch to an inch and a half of space around my entire leg. This became a problem when I was scraping snow off of my car and the front of my boots filled up with snow.
I recommend these boots if you are not going to be in very high snow because it is a hassle to have to dig the snow out of your shoes all the time. They are very comfortable and keep my feet dry and warm when walking through just a few inches of snow.
It would be helpful if these boots had an elastic pull cord around the top so that they could be tightened to fit the individual wearer. I might end up sewing one in so they are more practical.

They are very comfortable (like slippers) and keep my feet warm.
I have wide, muscular calves so it was nice to have them fit easily. Conveniently, I can slip them on and off quickly. It would however be helpful if these boots had an elastic pull cord around the top so that they could be tightened to fit the individual wearer.

I just got the boots and tried them on right away. Good fit, nice and warm.
The ground was slushy after a snow melt with some water on the grass and there was no problem with leaks. Can't wait to showel some snow.

My daughter likes these boots because they are not too bulky on her feet. So far they are warm in the 30 degree weather at the school bus stop in the morning. The real test will be when we get into the negative teens in January! I feel optimistic.
