Very comfortable - Needed 1/2 size Up
I originally ordered these in my regular size because most reviews indicated they ran true to size. The 10's were snug in the toe for me, even with thinner socks. I immediately exchanged for a 10.5, and my replacements arrived the very next day. These fit perfectly, and allow for my my foot cusions and arch supports. You can adjust the tightness or loosen the fit easily with the long ties and hooks. There is even room for a ticket boot sock, if needed. They are very comfortable, no breaking in needed! I took a short hike in the neighborhood and there was no sliding or rubbing. My ankles feel much better supported, which I appreciate due to a wonky knee and a tricky sciatic nerve. I look forward to many hiking adventures in this reasonably priced hiking boot!

I was hoping to be one of the people that were unbothered about the crease across the toes, but as soon as I put them on and walked across my house, they already started to pinch there. Had to return them.

This is my first hiking boot and i just got these in the mud/eve color. So far after walking around the house i love them! I usually wear a 8.5 in heels and 9 in flat shoes, sometimes i have to go with a 9.5 in sneakers and after reading reviews on going a half size up i went with the 9.5m and they fit perfectly lenght wise. They are a tiny bit roomy but i like that for adding thicker socks. The boots are VERY lightweight which i love and they are very cushy and comfortable with good ankle support. I read the reviews about the toe crease thing and i can feel it happening more so on my left foot than my right but the shoes are so soft i think after breaking in it will go away. Adding a thicker sock might help too. I will post an update after i go a hike with them!

Size: 8.5Color: Black, Poppy RedVerified Purchase
I have purchased these boots multiple times (on the third pair of black ones). They have taken me all over the world. They are perfectly designed for my narrow foot and I can walk miles with them just out of the box - without any blisters. I never get sore feet. Perhaps I have a foot suited to the boots - or maybe they are just great hiking boots. My last trip I walked more than 200 miles in the Algerian Sahara on really rough rocky terrain - I wore them every day for every mile and then bought another pair as soon as I got home. I figured they earned their retirement after that trip. They are waterproof, comfortable, nice looking (not overly tech) and with the hooks for the last two laces they are pretty easy on and off in the airport. I did trip once (at the airport ironically) when the loop of one boot hooked on the other boots top hook - so tie them twice to not have large loops - or I am clumsy.

They are also really light weight - and love the suede feel of the exterior. They clean up pretty good as well with a damp cloth although the boots do get scuffed and scratched up a bit - character. They have great cushion - but not too much that they feel bulky - and great ankle support yet feel flexible. Basically they are perfect and I wear them traveling and for work (on construction job sites) in any weather and everywhere else!! I am sure I will keep buying them and I hope they keep making them.

Photo is after climbing a 500 ft. tall dune - resting at the top! They didn't even have too much sand (ok they had a lot of sand) in them after that. Love these hiking boots - thank you Columbia!!

Size: 5.5 WideColor: Black/ChalkVerified Purchase
I initially bought this shoe in my usual size. It was tight, squeezing all my toes together and hurt after taking a few steps. So, I returned those for half size up and wide (hoping my toes wouldn't get squeezed and hurt). These turned out perfect. My toes no longer got squeezed, I just happened to be traveling to CO, PA, and MO so decided to bring and break-in as these shoes were bought for trip to Iceland later this year. I tromped thru the snow in CO, with no water leaks (socks perfectly dry). Shoes were little stiff but by the time I got to MO, I was tromping thru farmland all day in total comfort. Shoes were comfortable thru mud, puddles, uneven/unpaved ground thru little stones, sticks, and all else in the woods. I will definitely be taking these to Iceland. Well worth the $41.69.

Got these for my daughter (23) who is picky about footwear and has somewhat difficult feet to fit. She found these nice looking, comfortable and supportive for many hours each day hiking several national parks throughout Utah and Arizona.
They look good with shorts, leggings or pants.

I stomped through a pond and these boots simply repelled the water. I wear size 10 in most shoes, and the 10 in these boots fit perfectly. Very comfortable with no need to break in. My only complaint is the laces are a bit short and they tend to come undone.

I love my hiking boots. I didn't have to break them in, no blisters, yay. They are not waterproof so avoid those puddles. I did spray them but the puddles are still a no no. If you are just road or sidewalk walking in the rain they would be fine.

Las botas llegaron a tiempo, bien empacadas y en buenas condiciones.
Debo decir que soy mayor y nunca había tenido este tipo de botas, sentía preocupación por lo pesadas o rígidas que pudieran ser y por eso las empecé a usar antes del viaje de excursión para el que las compré.
Nada de eso. Son cómodas y suaves, lo suficiente para que olvidara que las traía puestas y siempre mantuvieron mis pies calientes y secos, aún bajo la lluvia.
Se ven tan durables que estoy segura que es algo que se puede heredar y servirá igualmente a otra generación.
Excelente marca, material y manufactura.
