Are the Bogs Slate Mid shoes fully waterproof?

Yes. The rubber lower is waterproof, so puddles, rain and mud do not soak through. The textile collar is not meant for standing in deep water.

How do they fit compared with other Bogs?

They fit close to standard shoe sizing, but several owners say they run narrow. If you have wide feet, consider sizing up or trying them on first.

Can I wear them for hiking?

For flat, muddy or wet paths, yes. The tread is mild, so they are not a substitute for a hiking boot on steep or rocky trails.

Are they good for summer?

They are fine for wet errands and yard work, but the rubber shell does not breathe well. They can feel warm on hot days or long walks.

Do they need breaking in?

Most owners report little to no break-in period. The slip-on design and cushioned footbed feel comfortable from the first wear.

About the Bogs Slate Mid Shoes

The Bogs Slate Mid is a slip-on mid-height shoe built for wet, muddy ground, with a waterproof rubber shell and a soft textile collar. It sits between a sneaker and a rain boot: easy to pull on, comfortable for errands and light outdoor work, and far lighter than a full rubber boot. Reviewers rate it well for everyday wet-weather wear, though some find the fit runs narrow and the tread less aggressive than a dedicated hiking shoe.
