Columbia Footwear Bugabootoo Boots - Waterproof (For Youth)

My daughter loves these boots. I purchased the next size up for next winter.

These boots look big but are sized smaller inside. My daughter wears a size 2 but I bought a size 3 to accomodate growth and thick winter socks. We were surprised to see that it fit just right while wearing thin socks. We decided to keep the boots as the insulation was warm enough even without heavy socks.

These are really nice boots. They encouraged our 5 year old to learn how to tie her own shoes. Work very well in the slush. They kept her feet toasty warm all day.

All in, nice boots and good value for great waterproof kid boot (skiing/sledding/playing, et al). ONLY subtle downside is that they are quite "high" up the ankle/leg and hence a bit more difficult to get on. Furthermore, as they are tie up variety, a bit more cumbersome w/a 5 yr old then simple velcro, etc. However, I knew this "going in"... ;-) All in, great boot.

My son loved these boots on our trip to Lake Tahoe. They kept his feet dry and warm!

This boot is nice to look at and very warm, but the shoe strings were a huge downfall for my seven year old daughter. They unraveled after about two weeks. The boot was warm and definately waterproof, but entry and exit was difficult. I've always trusted Columbia as a brand, in fact,I only wear Columbia boots in cold weather, but this boot did not work well for my daughter.

If you are willing to take the time to tie boots, then these are awesome!! The material is warm on the inside and waterproof on the outside. The fit is snug so moisture can't get in at all. The first time my kids wore these was on a tubing excursion. They were comfortable for the ride there, the two hours in the snow (up and down the hill), and the ride home. They wear them to school and out to play in the yard. I like the way their feet sit up a little. The height of the sole keeps them out of some of the slush!

my kids wear these boots in the snow. they fit great for kids who need an adjustable lace up snow boot, instead of the velcro or zip-up.

Snow shoes for my 9yr old daughter. This is probably the 5th pair she's had- all different brands before- and she overwhelmingly loves these boots the most. She says these boots are more comfortable and warm and feel lighter. The laces are easy to use and let her get a better fit than the zipper closure or velcro she's had in prior snow boots.

I bought these boots for my daughter, kids size 6, because she kept wearing my women's 7 1/2 bugabutto's. they are such a great deal....you can't beat the price.
