Columbia MORITZA™ Shield Women's Boots Color: Black Graphite Size: 9

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these boots to have a pair of all weather boots with out the fleece or minx lining. They are comfortable and warm with my wool socks. I normally wear a size 9 but decide to buy the 9.5 for extra room for thicker socks. I am glad I did. The bottom of the shoe has great tread. I am happy with my purchase.

My qualifications for boots this year were 1. waterproof, 2. comfortable, 3. stylish. I walk to work and needed something that could get me there and back, and something that I could wear the whole day. These did the trick! One note - the first time I wore them, my feet were dry but the backs of my calves were soaked! I was flicking up water when I walked. I tried slowing down, and the 2nd wear did not make my legs wet!
