Ordered this boot to use on a trip to Switzerland for light hiking and walking. I liked the boot, especially the styling and color but it was too narrow with my orthodic and hiking socks. Had Ordered the usual 10.5 to accomodate but still too narrow. Had to upsize to an 11. Yikes! Unfortunately, due to timing I had to buy locally to meet my traveling deadline.

Too long for feet but the 8W was wide enough for my wide foot. I am reordering half size down but also a wide. It’s very odd cause all my other shoes are size 8. So I think these just run 1/2 big. I ordered prettier laces, 54” length, to make them a little less dull and more feminine.

I have wide feet, so ordered a wide. Great in toe box but heel too wide. Looked sturdy and attractive, and price was right, but couldn't get the fit to work. Didn't wear it so can't address how well it performed.

I've worn these boots on multiple day hikes and they are comfortable, but they have caused blisters. Hoping that they just need a little more breaking in. When I wear them on short trips to run errands they are great. When I wear them to work (12 hour shifts in the ER) they are great.

I really liked the look and fit of this boot. However, it was too large and I wear a women's size 12!

Originally I purchased these boots about 18 years ago for my mother when her favorite boot company Dexter decided to discontinue their boot line, I knew she need stability and waterproof boot that would keep her foot dry and surprising to say the reviews back then are still as great as they are now. My mother loves this shoe and has requested that I order her another pair in black this time since her original pair was in brown when I purchased them the store was limited on colors. thanks again for a good product that keeps her safe and dry.

The shoe is comfortable and water proof. I love the shoe itself but unfortunately it was too large in the wide size. There was enough of an awkward gap but I didn't want to pay for shipping to return them. Instead I put in an extro sole I have for my plantar fasciitis and that helped make it snug!

The first few times I wore these boots the tongue at the top of the boot felt a bit bulky, not conforming well to my foot / ankle, but after the break in period, they are one of the most comfortable boots I have ever owned. I am extremely satisfied with the waterproof material.

They fit great, very comfortable! Wish they were slightly warmer, but other than that they are very good for a great price!

It has a nice style, hurts alittle against foot under lacing area, and good as water resistant and for hiking. Wore it just once to try it out, but probably takes a while to break it in. Will wear them more when it rains heavily more, in the snow or for hiking.

Got them just in time for our biggest snow in several years. They kept my feet dry and warm....not one slip and fall! I got them in wide and dropped down a half size..perfect.

I ended up exchanging mine for a half size down and regular instead of my usual wide. However, I usually hike in North Face boots instead of Columbia so I'm not sure how they compare in size to other Columbia boots. The cushioning was great. They seem very durable and weather-proof. I think my next hike in them will go better now that I have the proper size. They seem like a great value boot.

I typically order boots a 1/2 size bigger but didn’t need to with these. I took them out of the box added my insoles and wore them all day. 12,000 steps so far. These are very comfortable. I wish they they had just a little bit more cushion but overall I am happy.

Still not sure that I'm keeping these. I want to wear them around the house. I am between a 9 and a 9 1/2, and I ordered the 9; and that fits well. I am wearing them with heavy socks, so perhaps they run wide? The insole is removable, so I will want to consider replacing it with an insole that is thicker and has real arch support.

Last year I bought these boots because I was starting a job as an outdoor educator in the fall. The size 10 fit great and were super comfortable considering I wore them every day for work. Unfortunately, by the spring they started splitting around the toe seam where the leather meets the sole, letting water leak in. I'm a bit disappointed that they only lasted a year, but I have to wonder if I just need to order the wide variation. I also plan on getting a pair with a fabric exterior rather than the leather in case that was the reason for the splitting.

I was looking for a nice pair of waterproof boots for work. These boots fit good and are made of quality material. The only downfall I see with them is that my feet may get hot after wearing them all day because there is no ventilation.

I bought a pair of the Women's Newton Ridge Plus Waterproof Hiking Boot prior to making a trip out to the Pacific Northwest. While I did encounter a couple issues: Sizing was a little tough-- I found the 7.5 to be just a bit too snug and the 8 to be just a tad too big: by the end of the trip I had found the right socks to make this the perfect fit. I also came off the 10 day adventure with 0 blisters after wearing these throughout the entire trek. The only issue I sometimes had was the top of my foot rubbing against the top of the shoe-- though again, no blisters. These are definitely waterproof and durable as I walked through deep puddles and even hiked in the snow one day. I would recommend to anyone looking for a solid hiking boot: but just be very tedious about ensuring you're fitted for the right size

Great shoe; I'm borderline 6.5-7 and I got them in 7 but I definately should have gotten a 6.5 or 6

This is my third pair of these boots, I love them. I do quite a bit of hiking and I have never had any problems with these boots. During hunting season, I spend the whole day in these boots, for 4 or 5 days straight and I my feet never hurt. Guess that is why I keep buying them.

I liked the shoes...held up well in the mountains, hiking they didn’t get any scratches...but they do feel half a size large...I already sized down to 7.5...and still they felt big. But either way got the job done...
