Looking at some of the top 10 women’s winter boots
In the winter, you’ll need capable footwear, whether you’re working outdoors, snowshoeing, or commuting to work. The good news is that there is no shortage of women’s-specific footwear designed to keep your feet dry and warm.
Our choice of sturdy winter boot has been the Ugg Adirondack III for three winters running. Though Ugg might not be the first brand that springs to mind when selecting a sturdy winter boot, With a premium leather and suede upper backed by a waterproof membrane, you get excellent protection from rain, slush, and snow, and the natural wool lining is warm and plush and even insulates well when wet.
Often we do not see wool used in serious winter boots, but the Adirondack’s design lends it great versatility: when you roll down the cuff, you get a playful, casual boot that goes well with jeans or leggings. If it is fully extended, the Adirondack is a traditional leather model with no-frills warmth and functionality.
There is a possibility that temperature ratings can be misleading. Ugg rates the Adirondack III at -25 degrees Fahrenheit, but don’t race to the Arctic in this boot. During our testing, it performed well in snow, puddles, and temperatures as low as 15 degrees Fahrenheit. While it provides less coverage and warmth, its shorter, more casual build gives it greater freedom of movement to shovel the driveway and walk the dog while still providing better warmth.
In addition, it boasts a much more effective sole, which makes it an excellent one-quiver boot. You’ll have to shell out for the high-quality materials, but for a warm, stylish boot that can be worn both in town and in the mountains, you should consider it.
Kamik First’s Momentum boot for women has a lot to offer; it’s tough rubber lower, durable nylon upper, seam-sealed (a rarity at this price point), and 11.8-inch shaft height for good versatility in snow and water conditions.
Additionally, despite all the features outlined above, the boot looks good for everyday wear and comes in several colorways. Finally, we like the price of the Kamik, which—depending on size and color choice—undercuts much of the competition by $50–$100. Overall, it offers a unique combination of value and versatility that can’t be beat.

Despite the synthetic Heat-MX insulation and faux fur collar, the Momentum is only moderately warm. Additionally, the nylon upper feels somewhat plasticky and of lower quality than many of the more expensive options in this category, and it may be prone to absorbing moisture (especially when stepping through puddles or in wet snow).
Because the lacing stops short of the cuff, you cannot adjust the fit as effectively as with the Ugg above or Oboz Bridger below, although the bungee system is simple to use and fast. The Momentum is a versatile boot, and it is a great value for money. Columbia’s Ice Maiden II is another popular budget boot with a mid-height shaft.
A popular hiking boot, the Bridger, is given a thorough cold-weather treatment by the Oboz Bridger 7″ Insulated. In addition to the 200-gram 3M Thinsulate insulation and cozy wool collar, the Bridger 7” is taller by a few inches and offers greater protection from snow.
As well as useful hiking-specific features, you get a gaiter ring at the forefoot and a rubber tab at the heel for removing the boots hands-free (these also assist in securing snowshoes). We were pleased to see Oboz retain most of the light, nimble feel of the flagship Bridger, and the lacing system provides a secure fit. All in all, it is an excellent choice for long winter walks, hikes, and snowshoes.
The popularity of Chelsea boots has skyrocketed in recent years, and Blundstone has been leading the way with a wide variety of premium, well-made designs. The Thermal Chelsea Boots listed here exhibit the brand’s characteristic attention to detail and classic styling combined with winter-friendly comfort.
Featuring a Thinsulate-lined leather upper, removable sheepskin footbed, durable TPU outsole, and sleek elastic pull tabs at the front and back, these boots exude quality. Although the Thermal Chelsea falls firmly at the casual end of the spectrum, its polished appearance and quality craftsmanship make it an excellent choice for chilly commutes, everyday wear, or even indoor work.
There is no denying that the Baffin Impact is an exercise in excess, but if you are going outside in subzero temperatures for extended periods of time, such as when ice fishing or doing outdoor work in places such as the upper Midwest, Montana, or Alaska, it is an excellent choice. The boot is insulated with eight layers of foam and polyester (including the removable liner) and encased in a durable nylon and rubber shell.
A typical winter boot has a temperature rating of -25°F to -40°F, but the Impact is rated at -148°F. The impact has not been tested (and we do not intend to), but users have reported being comfortable wearing it in temperatures as low as -50°F. As far as cold-weather boots are concerned, this is an excellent choice.
In colder climates, a work boot, such as the Muck Boot Arctic Sport here, may be the best daily driver. With its 16.9-inch shaft height, waterproof rubber upper, and thick yet flexible neoprene collar, the Arctic Sport is perfect for outdoor chores, no matter if you are shoveling your suburban driveway or working on your ranch.
Throughout the winter in the Central Cascades of Washington, we have worn the Arctic Sport daily, and it has handled everything we have thrown its way, from waist-deep snow to spring slush. Besides insulating us from the elements, the boot provides solid warmth (Muck Boot provides a generous -40 to 40 F temperature rating) and a ridiculous amount of coverage. Once we have experienced the knee-height collar, we can’t go back.
There are a few classics like this. The Caribou from Sorel has been around for many years, and we love how it combines comfort, style, and performance. First of all, this boot is extremely warm with its 9-millimeter felt liner, cozy Sherpa pile cuff, sturdy leather upper, and wraparound rubber lower that provides comfort when walking through slushy puddles.
The Caribou’s felt interior is decently warm and adds soft cushioning to your feet. Most manufacturers nowadays use synthetic insulation in order to reduce bulk, but the Caribou’s throwback felt interior is decently warm. A removable liner is also provided, which is an excellent feature if the boot gets wet in deep snow to expedite drying.
The Bogs Neo-Classic Tall rain boot offers the signature Bogs look with a generous helping of warmth and protection. It is constructed from 5-millimeter neoprene, which is both insulating and waterproof. The 14-inch collar is sufficient to keep most water and snow out.
Additionally, the Classic’s sleek profile glides on easily with integrated handles and is easily cleaned, and we appreciate the addition of a DuraFresh odor treatment. The rain boot-like aesthetic does not feel out of place in shoulder seasons, either, as it is a classic winter choice anywhere, from coastal cities to frigid rural areas in the Midwest.
One of our favorite hiking boots is Salomon’s Quest boot, so we were excited to try it out in an insulated winter version. As expected, Salomon adhered largely to the Quest’s winning formula: an excellent lacing system for locking your feet in place, a great balance of flexibility for walking across uneven terrain while maintaining enough stability, and a high-quality, long-lasting construction.
A 400-gram Thinsulate fill and a cozy fleece collar are included in the Winter version, as well as Winter Contagrip outsoles for extra traction on ice and snow. As a result, the boot is capable and very comfortable and is ideal for snowshoeing, day hiking on hardpack snow, and everyday activities such as shoveling and walking.
Keen offers traditional leather boots that no one does quite like, and their Greta boot combines that classic styling with a down-like quilting collar that is reminiscent of a puffy jacket. To put it simply, this boot is an excellent choice for both its looks and its overall comfort and performance, which are complemented by competitive specifications.
Among Keen’s many products, the Greta is made from premium leather (certified to meet strict environmental standards by the Leather Working Group) lined with an in-house waterproof membrane and 200 grams of recycled synthetic insulation, and the Freeze outsole is highly capable on slick and tricky terrain. The fit is also easily adjustable for logging trail miles. In addition to the padded collar and tongue, Keen makes some of our favorite hiking boots on the market, and the Greta follows suit in a very functional winter-ready design.
