#COLUMBIA COMBIN OUTDRY BOOTS PLUS#
This pair of Columbia Bugaboot Plus IV XTM Omni-Heat Winter Boots look almost as good today, as the day that they came fresh out of the box. I’ve already recommended these boots to one of my friends (Kitty) and I would definitely buy a pair of these soft, stable, fun, kick-ass boots again! Most of the hikes and rides that we do are an hour or two but I’m sure they would be great for longer outings. With these new boots, I don’t have to worry about my feet getting cold as I have in the past. I’ve worn them in the single digits and below with the help of chemical warmers. I normally suffer from cold feet syndrome, but not with these. They keep my feet and toes nice and cozy. The Michelin Lugged sole allows them to really grip the pins on my flat pedals (also good for sneaking up on people – lol). Probably due to my short legs (otherwise know as my cannons). I found them to be more comfortable to walk in with the top eyelet left unlashed. They feature a roomy toe box and run true to size. From the first time that I put them on they gave me a soft slipper-like feel with lots of support. The Columbia Women’s Powderhouse Titanium Omni-Heat™ 3D OutDry™ Boots look great on and don’t make my feet look like they’re ten sizes bigger. So without further adieu, let’s get things started with Bethany’s thoughts on her pair of Columbia Boots. Bethany also used the boots to ride and on daily walks and hikes with our Bernese Mountain Dog, Cowboy. I primarily used my boots for riding, but I also snowshoed and shoveled snow in them. I think that our snow cover has been replaced three or four times this winter and we even had a brief time period with glazed ice conditions to test the grip of the Michelin Man soles.
We were graced with a visit from the polar vortex that broke a bunch of records for low temps and had a few warm spells that erased all of the existing snow cover. This winter has offered pretty fabulous laboratory conditions for boot testing with temperature extremes and sometimes even snow conditions. We thought that it’d be fun to do a ‘his & hers’ boot review so we’ve joined our powers to stink up a pair of boots to see how they do at keeping us warm and comfortable through a Wisconsin Winter. They’re a similar boot to the pair that I’m reviewing, with 600 grams of insulation and the same type of outsole. Not too long after my new boots arrived, my wife, Bethany ordered a set of Columbia Women’s Powderhouse Titanium Omni-Heat™ 3D OutDry™ Boots. You can check out all of the spec’s and look at what they looked like when they were new right here. Way back in August of 2018 I ordered a new pair of Columbia Bugaboot Plus IV XTM Omni-Heat Winter Boots after wearing out a pair of Keen boots that I wore during the previous two winters.
