My New Favorite Boots
My new favorite boots! They are not for standing in snow all day long as they are not that insulated, but they keep your feet warm for normal activities. They also don't make my feet sweat when wearing them indoors.
They are very very comfortable. No need for any break-in period. One of my best buy-it-for-life purchases.

Better than I expected warmth
This is a great winter boot…the fit is comfortable near perfect. I feel if you’re going to be wearing all day outside you might want to consider some proper wool or cold weather socks. These boots are warm and toasty, would definitely recommend

Finally: Warm Feet!
I wore these boots all winter last year while I was working in Poland. Pairing these boots with thick wool boot socks from Vermont Tough was a lifesaver! Thank you, LL Bean, for continuing to make these in the USA! I always go out of my way to buy American, and it’s a real pleasure to be able to do that for something as high-quality as these boots.

Made in USA Bean Boots Never Disappoint
Boot/Shoe sizing is always an issue when ordering online. For many reasons, I typically choose to spend extra for boots (or shoes) made in the USA - sizing being a primary concern. My experience is that footwear manufactured overseas can have both size & width variation. However, the USA made Bean boots always fit correctly. Follow the directions and order 1/2 size smaller than your shoe size and you should be good.

Excellent Boot
Love the comfort. They to me run a little large as I returned my size 12 for and 11-1/2. I hope I get them someday, that was weeks ago. I like just about everything Bean makes though.

Comfortable winter boots
I just keep them wide open at the top so I can easily slide into them when I take our dog out. Very comfortable and easy to do

Shearling lined Bean Boot
My first bean boot purchase. I am very happy, feel good fit, keeps my feet warm and dry.
My only regret is I am up in age I should have started using bean boots years ago.

Bean boots are one size to big
Order a size smaller. They come to big. Not much stability cushion in rocky terrain.

Cold toes during -5C
Easy to pull up. Comfortable. Unfortunately, I got cold toes during -5C in Toronto. I returned them.

Fantastic Boots
Love these boots from the comfort to the warm. Very easy to clean all the mud and stuff off after a hike. Only subtracted a star because the laces seem to be unwinding of sorts but still works.

Still the same quality after all these yesrs
High quality, American made boots, built to really last. They replaced a pair that gave me three decades of use.

LLbean 8 inch tumbled leather
These are terrific, except the insoles are somewhat lacking. They are not shearling lined so I dinged the boots for this. Once I got better insoles, a solid 5. Cheers.

Fit for a Canadian Winter
The boots are top quality, with leather and shearling lining aptly described in the product description. We are just across the border from Maine in New Brunswick, Canada so I was worried that maybe these weren’t quite up to the task as a winter boot; however, the boots are warmer than my old Kamik boots, making a morning walk commute in -10 weather a real pleasure. The treads are great for cold and fresh snow/slush, though I’ve yet to get into the icy pack that Canadian winters bring in January and February. I imagine I’ll need traction aids just like I needed for my old Kamiks.
The flexibility of the rubber was something I hadn’t expected, and it’s incredibly comfortable and accommodating of a slightly wider foot (I bought D width size 9). I’m slightly worried about the softness of the tread, as I’m likely to wear down the heel of the boot long before the end of life of the boot itself.
I do find an extra $200 over the regular 8” Beam Boot for the shearling lining and insulation a bit of a reach, but I got mine on sale for $50 off plus 15% off online and found this reasonable. Compared to Sorel or Kamiks, I still appreciate the added quality of the materials and construction. The $200 (CAD) for the regular Bean Boot sounds great and I will be back for a pair of those come springtime.
The sizing recommendations were perfect - I wear a size 9 Blundstone and a size 43 Birkenstock, and the size 9 insulated Bean Boot is just right. Would likely size down to an 8 for any unlined boot.
Customer service was great - I had accidentally ordered the size 10 boots I had left in my cart before deciding to size down, and they were quick to answer my call and cancel the order so I could place one for the 9s. Shipping was fast, and they arrived a day early.
We have an LL Bean an hour and a half a way in Moncton, New Brunswick but the online store was perfectly convenient - great to save the $60 in gas it would cost to drive there and back these days.

stitching let go 2 years in
Left heel blew apart taking them off separating upper from lower. Went to store for return who directed me to Maine who then directed back to store who then directed me back to Maine who then directed me to store who directed me to maine who then told me I could ship to Maine for repair price.... Do not buy from LL bean as they do not stand behind their quality and it took me 2 days of calling to get nowhere. Will never darken their doors again.

Bought these in Maine and just love them! warm, dry ,comfortable, and great snow ice traction. I enjoy still hunting and these boots feel great after a whole day of hunting on my feet. They make walking softly and quietly much easier than my previous boots.

Quality Product
The construction of the boot is excellent as always. The shearling is warm and cozy. The fit is nice and snug to avoid slipping.

RECOMMEND W/ RESERVATIONS FOR MEN WITH NARROW FEET
Wore these 1st time final day of Memphis In May/Mud BBQ Contest. My flat feet measure 12C, & even with their substantial shearling lining, thickest LLB Cresta Hiking Socks + thin polypropylene liners + 1/4-in-thick spongy namebrand aftermarket insert beneath stock removable footbed + cinching laces super-tight, these 12 Ms are STILL a bit wide. Excellent quality thru-out, rather heavy, superb pebble-grain leather that's tanned darker than the usual. For a classier look, suggest switching stock laces for variegated medium tan/dark brown, then lace thru all eyelets & finish with a figure-8 knot in both ends to keep in place.

I only had the chance to wear these twice in the Winter that wasn't in Connecticut.
Nonetheless, I felt and know the quality of the boot. I highly recommend them. Fit, feel, comfort, and look are great.
Hopefully, they get some mileage on them next Winter.

Disappointed
I live in the mountians of Colorado and need a good snow boot. I purchased the 8" shearling thinking that the insulation would go throughout the entire boot. It only covers the ankle and that is not what gets cold. The boots are of good quality but the insulation value is almost nonexistent. Fortunately they are quite large and I can wear 3 pair of socks to keep my feet warm.

Love these boots!
Bought a pair nearly three years ago and love them. They are warm, durable and stylish. Every time I put them on I feel like i'm basking in luxury. Can't recommend them enough.
