Detailed Review
The Bogs Women's Sweetpea Ankle Waterproof Rain Boots provide a remarkable combination of fashion and function. One of the standout features is their 100% waterproof capability, thanks to the innovative Bogs Max-Wick technology. This feature makes them perfect for wet weather, ensuring your feet stay dry no matter how heavy the downpour.
Comfort is paramount, and the rebound cushioning provides a plush feel that lasts throughout the day. You will appreciate the lightly cushioned textile footbed that adds an extra layer of comfort, perfect for long walks or standing for extended periods. The nylon shank in the footbed enhances stability, which is a significant plus for those with an active lifestyle.
On the downside, those who live in extremely cold climates may find that the lack of substantial insulation could lead to chilly toes. Additionally, it's worth noting that some users report the sizing might run slightly smaller than expected, so trying them on before purchasing is advisable.
Overall, the Bogs Women's Sweetpea Ankle Boots are a fantastic addition to any wardrobe, especially for those who value both style and practicality in their footwear.

User Reviews
Very happy with this purchase. Very comfortable, soft rubbery boot. Doesn’t cut into the ankle like other rain boots I’ve tried. The width is a little narrow for my foot but they’re stretchy and flexible and contour around my foot. And they’re Fashionable to be able to wear them with a dress if you needed to.
These boots are so comfortable, they almost feel like moccasins. Not sturdy enough for a hike (I have hiking boots for that) but ideal for running errands on damp Fall or Spring days. I have had them for almost a year and they still look brand new. I get many compliments on them every time I wear them. I love the green color (I consider green a neutral) and wear them with everything. I have purchased Bog boots for my boys throughout their childhood and they are the only shoes that stand up to their tough wear (often staying in good enough condition that we have resold them second-hand.) This is the first pair of Bogs I have worn personally and I love them. I am brand loyal when it comes to shoes and it is hard to find shoes that stand up to my requirements of quality, durability and style. These boots do that in abundance!
I bought these boots for the purpose of wearing when I take our dog outside. They appealed to me because they're waterproof and not too clunky. The green color isn't something I'd normally choose, but I liked it the best of the options. The profile of the boots are fine for my intended purpose, but if I were looking for a more fashionable boot, I think I'd look for something with either a little more contour or slightly more of a heel. I was hoping these would slip on easily, especially in the mornings when I stumble down the stairs trying to wake up before we go out, but they đefinitely require use of my hands to put them on. (For Context, my previous yard shoes were duck shoes that were goofy looking but had a wider opening for my feet) I've already gotten to try these in cold and/or wet conditions and they are indeed warm and kept my feet dry. As another reviewer mentioned, they aren't lined, so depending on your needs, you may consider adding a lining. Lastly, my true size is a 7.5 and my feet are a little narrow. I ordered an 8 since half sizes aren't an option. Without socks, these are a tiny bit big. Today I paired them with really thick socks and they filled in some of the space to give a comfy fit.
I can't say enough about how much I love these boots. I've had them about a month and worn them to work 3-4 days a week. I do work inside but am out and about during the day. Our weather has been very rainy and snow, slushy. They have performed well, my feet stay dry and the traction is great. In some of the reviews I read comments how they were not comfortable, I find them to be very comfortable. I have a size 10-11 wide foot in the toe area. The fit is perfect and roomy, even with a thick sock. The support is not like a hiking boot ( it's not a hiking boot), but nice and flexible and cushy. I've had so many comments how cute they are, I'm over 60 and the younger ladies really like them. They are stylish comfy and functional. Would highly recommend.
Love these boots. Easy to slip on and off, comfortable, totally waterproof and still cute.
These boots are so cute and comfortable but they run big. There is a big gap around my ankle so when I walk I feel like these boots wants to come off my feet. I bought a pair of shoe liner but it only help a little bit. I’m very disappointed because I really like them but I think Im going to send them backI wear size 6 1/2M base in the other reviews I bought size 7. Also size 6 cost $69.00 and size 7 $55.00 that doesn’t make any sense so because of that difference in price I’m not going to exchange it for smaller size. Those old reviews didn’t help me at all.
I had to buy a new pair of rain boots since I donated my last pair to the spiders in my garage. I have flat, wide, size 9 feet, and I found these boots comfortable. There’s no real arch support but I tend to wear minimalist shoes, so I was fine with that.
I wore these boots everyday since they arrived. The right boot started to leak at the toe 3 days after the return window. The water seeps in and my sock is wet after only a few minutes. Probably a fluke but can't recommend them because of the leak.
