Amazon To buy: amazon.com, $80 (originally $110) I have an older version of these shoes that I bought in 2018, and they are my go-to winter shoes. I wear them every day once the weather turns. From running errands around town to shoveling the driveway to going for a winter walk, they keep my feet warm and cozy all season long year after year. These Columbia Women’s Ice Maiden II Snow Boots are an updated model with an even better fit and functionality. Travel + Leisure / Karthika Gupta These shoes excel in two critical areas: comfort and warmth. The soft, faux-fur collar provides excellent insulation against the cold, and according to Columbia they can even be worn in temperatures as low as -25 degrees Fahrenheit. The quilted ankle support fabric adds additional warmth and cushioning as well as plenty of flex in the boot for a supportive midsole — meaning you can comfortably wear them all day. Coming up mid-calf length, they’re great for stepping over (or through) huge snow puddles. Plus, the adjustable laces allow you for a little give, especially good if you plan to layer thick socks. The Best Winter Hiking Boots for Women and Men in 2023 One Amazon shopper found them so comfortable that they wore them nonstop during their week-long trip to Vail. “I went in one inch of fresh powder snow with plain cotton blend socks to go sledding with the kiddos, and my feet never got wet or cold, but they also didn’t ever get hot.” They added, “They are so comfortable that I chose them for a 17-plus hour drive and never took them off until I was back in my house ready for bed.” Amazon To buy: amazon.com, $80 (originally $110) These shoes also have Columbia’s signature Omni-Grip non-marking, high-traction rubber outsole that provides steady footing on any surface, especially those that are slick and wet due to snow and ice. The toe and heel have a leather-reinforced finish that not only looks stylish but also protects the toes and heel from any bumps on uneven surfaces.
