User Reviews
My partner had already purchased a different style of Bogs boots so I knew they were solid, warm, and comfortable. I decided to get the Rancher style because they were the most manly I found (short of the camouflage boots) and I need all the help I can get. I'm certainly not disappointed. These boots are incredibly warm and 100% waterproof. The neoprene uppers are tight enough that nothing gets in, but stretchy enough to fit over pants without feeling tight. I know that they are too warm to be much use outside fall or winter, so I'll probably need another pair when it's not so cold, but they are perfect right now. The only problem is that my feet get tired and cramp quickly in them, which is more a problem with my feet than the boots. It's not a huge issue because the inserts that they come with are easily removable and I can stick whatever orthopedic inserts in that I want.
Great boot. I've had them over a year now, they are holding up very well. They fit great, easy on, easy off. I like the lug on the back for easy removal. The top of the boot fits my calf a lot better than any muck boot I've ever had. Very warm. Overall I am very happy with this product. I would take Bogs over Muck any day of the week.2 1/2 yrs in, and still going strong. Great boots.
i used to wear bogs when i was younger. at some point i grew out of them and thought they were too dorky. it finally got to the point where i needed some new snow boots and i saw these, so decided to give bogs a try again. they’re my new favorites!!
for my Zookeeper husband and will review them as they become available and worn.
I've bought one cheap pair of rain boots in the past and those were for a Ace Ventura Halloween costume (yes I wore the pink tutu as well). These Bogs are on another level. I was in need of a good pair of mucking boots because my GF has 2 horses and we frequently go to the pastures where they are kept (pasture boarding). We live in Indiana and the amount of mud and horse poo we trudge through is mind boggling to me. I'm new to horses so im learning a lot these past 8 months, but it turns out the $250 cowboy boots I bought for "barn time" are not ideal footwear for muddy pastures. I wore these Bogs Ranchers to to barn yesterday for the first time and almost instantly knew that I made a smart purchase.. these are tall enough to keep mud and water from coming over my ankles, these are comfortable with good support, I can tuck my jeans legs inside the boots, they did not come off when I fought the suction forces of the deep mud, they provided excellent traction (this will be tested further as we set in for another winter storm headed our way), and they clean off nicely with a waterhose.I typically wear size 14 tennis shoes. My cowboy boots needed to be 14 wide, so I opted for size 15 in these Bogs Ranchers and I'm glad I did. Perfect fit on the first attempt. I will do my due diligence and recommend you too size up one size from you tennis shoes, but of course everybody is different and millions of other people have worn these boots before me, so take my recommendation with a grain of salt.I LOVE THESE BOOTS!!!As for the horses in mud situation, I have learned this is NOT the type of environment that these majestic beings should be living in. I've learned about all of the negative issues this environment can cause these animals, and my GF and I are attempting to get the land owner to resolve the issues. In the meantime, we are in the process of finding another boarding facility. Rest assured that these animals are loved, checked on and groomed frequently. It's all of the other horses in the pasture that I worry about the most. Theres approximately 30 horses there and other than the land owner, I've only ever seen a couple of other adults out there tending to their horses. Eventually we hope to buy land in southern Kentucky where we will provide a much safer environment for her horses....and if I have it my way......my future horse and several others.Go Bogs!!!
no notable difference in a 4 yr old pair I have that was only showing wear where I fold them over for daily slip-on use. Rolling the tops down 4-5 inches makes them easy to just slip on while standing
These are super boots, I couldn't be any more happy with these. My feet never sweat or get cold, these are year round boots. The sizes run big I usually fit a 10 to 10 1/2 with most shoes but the size 9 fits perfectly, I suggest trying a size down or going with the try it before you buy it option. These are my favorite boots and these things out perform any boot by far.
These are very warm and comfortable boots. But in two winters, the wear spot where it bends for the toes has become a hole on both boots. They're still warm, but obviously not water proof. Fairly disappointed in these.
