Columbia Men's Newton Ridge Plus II Waterproof Hiking Boot

These boots feel great. First pair of leather boots, so I didn't know what to expect. So far, they're water proof (except on the tongue). The rubber on the bottom of the boots feels softer, but it also feels like the rubber "teeth" sort of flex to fit rocks and stones better when I'm walking on uneven terrain. So far so good. *update* half a year in and still great. Im using these for hiking, airsoft, and work. Favorite boots by far and still very comfortable. *2nd update!* The second picture (on the carpet) is after 18 months of use. The tread is still great. I've been wearing these daily since my previous update - for an entire year now. I still love these boots. They're still very comfortable and my feet have remained dry this long. I'm truly impressed and recommend them any chance I get. I wear 12 wide and can't imagine buying a different boot when it's time to update. I should note that I used mink oil on the leather when I got these. A friend at work suggested leaving it on for 24 hours and gently wiping it off. I haven't treated the leather or taken care of these boots in any other way since that day. I know there are bad reviews out there, but if you're selling a ton of anything, there will be lemons. I abuse the crud out of these boots. I've been building a house, hauling gravel, cutting trees, working, and still doing trails and my other hobbies... these are worth every penny.

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.

Columbia products have never let me down and these did not disappoint. I bought these specifically for a trip to Colorado. I was worried that they were not going to fit or be painful, but that was not the case. They arrived several days before my trip and wearing them around town, they felt very comfortable. In Colorado, we did lots of activities, including climbing a very, rocky mountain peak, hiking trails and horseback riding. These boots never disappointed in, both, comfort and safety! And my GenZ daughter thought they were stylish with jeans and a plaid button-down when we'd hit the town later. I've only owned them for 2 months so time will tell f they endure, but I fully expect them to! I like that they are weatherproof, as I also needed boots for clearing snow, and now I have a pair! And I found the price very fair considering the quality, comfort and brand-recognition.

I purchased these hiking boots for use primarily while hiking, and backpacking in the rugged mountains of Northern California. Based on the good prior reviews I decided to try a pair of high top boots for the first time in a long time, as opposed to the low top hiking shoes I've worn for the last 10 years or so. As of now I have about 20 miles on them and I am fairly pleased so far. The sizing is exactly as I had expected. The fit is very comfortable. It takes a little work to cinch up the laces to get them as tight as I like them. The stitching seems very sturdy and the overall build seems to very durable. Good traction on the soles makes for easy scrambling and bouldering. And they are very lightweight, adding to the overall comfort of the boot. Only negative so far is a crease in the leather on the top of one of the boots, which is causing a little bit of irritation near the joint of my big toe. Hoping that will go away as I continue to get the boots broken in.

I have only used these boots outside once so far, but they seem to be working well. I wore them while I put up my tent yesterday. It was 26°F with 15 mph winds and a wind chill of 12°F and my feet were warm the entire time. Not even a hint of chill. I was wearing a regular pair of socks with a pair of wool socks over them, but even when I wear those socks with my regular work boots, the cold can set in fairly quickly. I ordered them a half size up from my regular shoe size based on another reviewer's suggestion. It was definitely a good call. With the wool socks on, the fit is snug to say the least. I have a somewhat wide foot so these boots seem a bit narrow, and I was disappointed that there wasn't a wide option for these. I would say that if you have had consistent issues in your life with finding shoes / boots wide enough for you, you may want to look for something else. And as others have mentioned, the toe box is indeed small. My toes aren't squished in or anything, but they certainly don't have much room in there. I will update my review after they get a bit more use. By then I should be able to comment on the waterproof aspect. UPDATE: I've broken the boots in a bit more and I'm very glad I purchased them. The grip is outstanding and the waterproof aspect seems to hold true. I wouldn't go using them the same way as knee-high rain boots, but I wouldn't worry on wet ground, light rain, or shallow creeks. I've done all of that with them. The big test came when I was on the West Coast. I was wearing them on the beach as the waves came in and a few of them were higher than expected. They went over my boots and wet my pant legs about a foot off the ground. Even though it was over the boot strings and the flap, only a tiny bit of water made it in and got the top of my socks wet. I was expecting fully soaked, but that wasn't the case. This happened about 3 times too. Give them a shot!

The product is last long

Pas trop mal pour l instant mais le test ne sera pas long chaussure confortable taille normal mais semelle s use extrêmement vite crampon arrière complètement disparue en a peine 2 mois d utilisation y a mieux dans cette gamme de prix Bonne marche a vous

I wore it for 7 days trekking in Nepal, sole are already disintegrating . Inner material are not good qualities , smells terrible , Good for single used . Must say grip are good .

I was quite happy about the fit and the build quality of these shoes, however on the first day of heavy rain, I arrived at work to find my socks and feet soaked. I decided to give Columbia and their acclaimed technology a go but I was really disappointed: I will go back to my beloved goretex shoes that never let me down.
