Title: Best boot my well aged feet have ever had.
Review: So have worn the Newton Ridge Plus for some 10 pair or so. If memory serves they were just Newton Ridge (non Plus) for the first few pair, but that was some time ago! I keep buying them as they do it all right. Waterproof, Support, Last a year of ~10K steps / day. My go to work, play and away boot.I actually got this pair for a workmate that had gotten boots from a local big box and the sole broke after 3 months, twice in a row. I could not take it anymore and had to get him a real pair of boots. He's doing fine in these. You probably would too.I don't have a break in period with these. They feel comfortable and work right and can be worn to work the day you take them out of the box.

Title: Perfect Fit With Great Durable Feel
Review: These shoes feel fantastic! They are very true to size, and they fit me just perfectly. The craftsmanship and design look wonderful, and I haven't seen or experienced any issues with them so far. I ordered these as hiking boots, and possibly as winter boots, but they look so nice, I kind feel bad about possibly scuffing them up!The support around the ankle area seems adequate to me, but I immediately removed the insoles from these shoes. They're just thin pads, and although they were comfortable, they didn't provide the arch support I wanted. I had some high arch insoles that slid right in, and now I'm ready to go. I tend to overpronate, especially with my left foot, due to a prior injury, but with the insoles in these, and the added support around the ankle, these should be just great for me!Awesome quality, stylish appearance, and a great value, in my opinion!

Title: Love Columbia
Review: Can't beat Columbia's blend of comfort, style, functionality & price. I commute via train downtown for work then have to talk a mile round-trip. These expertly handle the slick city-scapes if it's raining, snowy or icy. And yes--they are waterproof. Should keep your feet dry so long as you're not trudging through 6 inches of snow or stepping in giant puddles. They also look the part once I get into the office which in important where I work. Highly recommend!

Title: Very comfortable, great for casual hikers
Review: This boot is an excellent choice for budget conscious, casual hikers. As a large person with large wide feet I was skeptical about the low price and quality, but these were comfortable from day one. I think that is the boots best feature. All of my life I've had to break in hiking boots to some capacity, but not these. They also are quite stable, they feel more like a hybrid of a tennis sneaker and high end hiking boot, but I find I have great stability and control in them.One critique is the claim that they are waterproof is simply incorrect. The mesh tongue makes that untrue. I've walked through taller grass in the rain and they soak up water right to the socks. The other parts of the boot are at least water resistant but I do not recommend heavy rain hiking with these, especially if you're walking through brush. I also do worry about the longevity of these, the lace hooks in particular feel low quality, so if you want tie the boot very tight this could be a concern.With that said I think for a very low price you get a very comfortable casual hiking boot which is great for paved, gravel, and well travelled trails. Also great for big footed folks. I do not recommend these for heavy rain days, and you might be pushing the limits a bit with heavier brush areas. If used once a week these will go a long way, I think as a daily driver you might want to look at a higher end boot, especially if these are for work.

Title: Very comfortable for all day standing.
Review: This is my second pair. They fit my foot perfectly. My job requires me to stand all day. These boots are way more comfortable than tennis shoes. Secondly, I wore them hunting and they are way better than the $300 to 500 huntimg boots. They handle walking on rocks better than Merril hiking shoes. For the price, These are amazing shoes. Im buying a third pair now.

Title: Good, for what they're meant for...
Review: So let's get this out of the way these are hiking boots... These are not work boots... I'm about 97% sure that they are real leather... So they can make your feet smell... They are extremely comfortable. They have great traction.But ultimately once again they are not work boots.This means that the sole is simply too soft and too thin to last very long on raw concrete or asphalt... Once again it's not what they were meant for.I used mine in a mixture of tile floor and sidewalk concrete. Not surprisingly. They did not last very long before the heel wore out... Not the boots fault not Columbia's fault. They are just not work boots...Love, the gray, beautiful looking boot actually.

Review: 5 months old. I used these boots mostly for rugged and non-rugged walks with my dogs three to four times a week. They were great. They were high enough for small puddles and wet trails....until today. I came home and the toes of my socks were soaked. Too bad. I liked these boots. I will be returning them.
