Title: Excellent quality, comfortable, good grip
Review: Excellent quality and fit.Very comfortable even with 9 hours of intense hiking. I did not need to break them in. Comfortable from the beginning.Only got one small blister after hiking 8 hours due to a crease forming.Very good grip. Slip resistant.Not too heavy in weight.Not too hot and not too cold.Great shoelaces.I love the teal color!I’m super happy with this purchase. The price was also very reasonable.

Title: Overall, Gravy!
Review: Updating again because I'm awesome :-)-Well obviously I love these, but even to this day they look new. No busted seams, cracks or anything. I've upgraded my laces to elastic boot laces so I can easily slide these on without having to tie any laces, for those moments while you're camping and in the middle of the night when you gotta get up and go outside. Easy least, I love them.UPDATE#2!!!- Okay y’all so just for fun i’m giving you another update on these beauties. this summer i was a Rec Leader at an outdoor nature-centric Summer Camp. The park is a protected natural preserve and everyday i was walking at least 2 miles a day through wet grass, muddy slippery rocky trails, heavy rain, dirt/dust, climbing in & out of sinkholes of limestone rock, getting splashed on by kids in the pool, etc. i wore these EVERYDAY this summer because i was not about to ruin my sneakers for the job, summer is rainy season here and it gets SO HOT so i knew it just made sense to wear these. They help up fantastic. They still look new- nothing is loose or cracked whatsoever. they’re nice and tight and crisp, albeit a little dirty :)) just wanted to let you know how they held up with everyday wear and tear bc i definitely tested them this summer. and they remain strong :). I’m going to Tennessee in a few weeks and these will again be the only shoes i bring 🙂 you just can’t go wrong. these are my go-to shoes for moments where regular sneakers just won’t cut it. still 1000% recommend. love these so muchUPDATE!- so I’ve come and gone to Iceland with these babies as my ONLY shoes for the trip- a week full of hiking, exploring and campervan-ing. They did not disappoint! The slight concern on my first post was definitely my own problem, lacing them all the way or halfway never gave me any tongue-chafing again. I LOVE the lace hooks from the ankle up- it made taking the shoes off and on in airports a total breeze. I was in freezing temps, wore with some cheap wool socks, my feet were always warm. Lightweight you can run with no problems but sturdy to where you still feel supported. It rained many times while I wore them, I even had to step into a little river to cross and continue a hiking trail- the boots were submerged to where the icy water was halfway up foot level but my feet were completely dry, (I even stayed there a few extra seconds to test the shoe’s power) the outside of the shoe barely looked wet and dried shortly after that as if it never happened. Wonderful shoes- again for the price you just can’t beat them. Would highly recommend and purchase again in a heartbeat!ORIGINAL- These are so nice! I needed a pair of waterproof hiking boots for my upcoming Iceland trip in October, and boy am i impressed.Right off the bat they are super comfy and sturdy but still lightweight- (nothing like my Dr. marten boots i own that are stylish, but feel like bricks.) great grip on the bottoms, nice height too- not too tall where they chafe your ankles but not too low where they still support your ankles. Love the colors too- the red laces add a nice touch of color and the camel color is beautiful. Very well made, great quality, suede is nice and soft, no loose stitching or anything like that-these look built to last.So far ive only worn them out once to a local nature trail through the woods, and it rained a bit while i was out. (usually i wear sneakers on that trail and wobble over the roots and rocks)- but with these, i felt so secure as i walked, they were very comfortable to wear, and even after the mud and rain- They looked new straight of of the box. I'm guessing its the way its designed, but bottom of the boot did a really good job at keeping the debris Under the shoe rather than All Over it.My only complaint, and this could by my own issue and not the shoe's, is that while i wore them, i laced them up all the way. I don't know if this is how you're supposed to wear these, because the lace hoops really only come up to the top of your ankle, where your foot bends- and above that, there arent holes fr the laces but hooks that you can use to close up the boot more securely i'm guessing.- But when i did this, i did feel some discomfort on one of my feet from the inner ankle area where the laces felt too tight and were making the tongue of the boot kinda rub and press on my foot/ankle. It wasn't unbearable, but uncomfortable. Not knocking any points off the boot though, cause i can just adjust the way i lace them and maybe i wont have that issue anymore.Overall, for the price and quality, these boots are tough to beat in my opinion. They get the job done, and they seem like they will last a long time. Im happy with my purchase. I will come back and let you guys know my experience with these in Iceland!

Title: Unbelievable COMFORT!
Review: No breaking-in needed with these. TRUE to SIZE and can be worn on hikes or in the winter months. Very easy to put on, and the soles provide excellent stability. LOVE the turquoise color and everything about them. I would not hesitate to buy another color. So HAPPY with this purchase!

Title: Perfect for Iceland and beyond
Review: Loved them!I bought this pair based on another reviewer who also used them for a trip to Iceland. They were right! These boots are comfortable, not overly warm, keep your feet dry, and are lightweight enough for frolicking around Icelandic waterfalls and beaches. Despite getting wet and muddy, they looked new after they dried. I will keep them for the next adventure, maybe Alaska or Colorado. Crampons fit well over them without problems. I wish there was a version of these for hot weather.

Title: definitely a good one for hiking: durable, stable, great traction. May be too stiff for casual wear
Review: I was able to snag these for $60. A week later and they are up to $75. While I dont rate on price, I comment. I chose these because they were competitively priced with no name brands. I figured Columbia has served me well enough in the past that I would spring for these. It was no brainer at $60 price point, but $75 would have had me sniffing around other options even if I did think that Columbia is the way to go anyways.The have a stiff but stable feel. These are hikers, and while they will break in a little over time, it is important that they keep the stiffness in the ankle area. If just using these as daily shoes, then you may want something with more flex. If actually hiking, then these are going to provide a stable feel. The traction looks and feels good too.One thing to note is that they just fit my feet. I went with size 11 even though I more like a size 10. I learned that if I go with a larger size, then it will accommodate my wide feet without having to buy shoes designated as wide width. Opened up a whole new world for me once I discovered that.So while these fit in width and fit in length.. the length doesnt feel like it is a size larger. I would NOT want these any smaller. Not sure if I can wear thick socks with these (haven't yet tried. Just wore with regular thickness socks). Possible I will gain a little added space with some breaking in, but I have only worn these a few times and not for any particular activity.The area from top if foot to bottom of foot also feels a tad snug. Not bad, but it felt good to take my hikers off after just sitting with them on. Again, perhaps a little breaking in will help with that.These do not look nor feel cheap.At this time, I am overall pleased. If I experience anything worth sharing (good or bad, but especially bad) I will be back to update.

Title: Amazing Hiking Boots
Review: I got the 2024 Dark Stone/Cosmos boots and I absolutely love them! They are super comfortable and stylish. The first time I wore them was hiking in Vermont and I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable they were, no need to even break them in. The lace up closure provides great support, the insoles are super cushioned, they have great traction on all different kinds of surfaces, and they are waterproof. I would highly recommend buying these!!!

Review: Muy cómodas, las estrené caminando por 8 horas (hice mal porque no sabía que debía ablandarlas antes) y no me lastimaron. Incluso me metí a un pequeño charquito de agua y no se mojaron. Además están bien chulas!
