Overall this is a good product. Sizing is about half a size small but I actually needed a 6-6.5 any way, so no big deal for me there. Only issue I have with them is that I need a 4E instead of the standard wide width.

I bought the wide width size; however, the front is still too narrow. It may fit the regular wide feet.

I buy Columbia shoes for the great traction they provide for both on pavement and dirt. Columbia shoes usually never fail me when it comes to comfort. But the waterproof Redmond felt slightly tight when I first tried them on. This was unusual because I always buy the Wide version of every pair of Columbia shoes I have ever owned. Anticipating some stretching to occur after using them for a while, I decided to stick with it. They've gotten better although they still feel a little tight, and therefore cause some slight irritation on the fourth toe of each foot.

The shoes were unfortunately too tight even ordering the EE. Last pair I had were almost identical in color and supposed size. Last ones were great but these too tight and had to return

Had the previous version of this shoe and loved it, so I bought this updated version. Unfortunately, the last used for construction is apparently not the same as it is substantially tighter on my foot and my toe touches the end for the same size. Even with the laces fully released, I could barely get my foot into it. I will have to return it.

These shoes are perfect for the outdoors person, they are light-weight and waterproof. Giving the wearer protection and comfort for those long hikes.

This pair of shoes are very outstanding. I love it. I purchased the great pair of trial shoes I was interested in for a great price. They are very supportive and still have enough room in the toes to be comfortable even when walking down hill. These are good shoes to wear all day long. I wear them with medium weight socks. Usually, my shoes are size 11; these shoes are size 11.5 Wide.

the shoes were no longer waterproof after 1 yr of wearing. Disappointed. They are very comfortable and available in W size. They have very good traction. I had no problem wearing them on icy street.

I bought this shoe thinking it would be wide enough for my feet but the first pair was too short so had to be sent back. The second pair is the correct length but doesn't seem to be very wide for a wide shoe. I've only worn them once so far but they seem comfortable enough for a five mile walk. They don't get my feet all sweaty so they are breathable. I think I'm going to like them a lot.

My husband wears a 12 EE in nearly every brand of shoe. These felt at least a half size smaller and much more narrow that a wide shoe.

Ordered first pair in a medium, but had to return due to narrow width. Ordered same size in wide and shoe fit perfect. Excellent exchange handled by Zappos.

These are great looking shoes. It makes me sad that I have to return them as they are far too narrow for my feet. I have wide feet, but usually can get away with normal width shoes, even other Columbias. Not here - very tight in the toes and the heel.
I agree with another that they make a crinkling sound when walking.

I have 2 pair of these Pebble and Black. I bought the pebble for summer. Liked them and bought black for winter. Very comfortable. Worn them all winter so far in the snow and slush and feet are dry. Not sure how they fair in actual water, but for my purposes they are good. I don't hike, but just wear them as an everyday shoe. I have also worn them in the summer and they are not too hot to wear. I guess some water proof shoes can get hot. I always wear a 11.5W in every shoe I have, but these I needed a 12W.

Nice shoes, but run about 1/2 size smaller; Also, I ordered EE and received WIDE should't advertise EE if they don't make them, needles to say not wide enough. Won't buy it again.

Have had this shoe for a few weeks now , in the PNW. Quality is strong, fits similar to other Columbia products, cushioning in the sole is great, great traction and grip. Weather-wise they have kept my feet dry on the few wet days we've had since I've owned. But I feel like they will do well in heavier rain a well. Sticky clay type mud does stick to sole fairly heavily but not worse than other brand would.

Really like these shoes. But they are just to narrow at the ball of my foot. Other Columbia brand fit fine and I did buy a different Columbia shoe.

I ordered a half size larger than normal and in wide. I needed to order at least another half size larger. The shoe does not fell like it's a wide.

These are nice shoes but they are not wide. The tag states that they are wide, but they feel very tight. These are going back.

My husband has narrow feet, so he was happy to order this show based on other reviews that it was narrow. Unfortunately, it also runs small, and this is important because he wears a size 15, which are hard to find.

I like the shoe, but order one or possibly two sizes up from your normal. I normally wear a 12, but ended up with a 13, and would probably prefer a 13.5 if that existed.
My one complaint is that the wide version of the shoe seems narrower than most wide shoes too, which means this shoe probably won't last as long with daily wear.

I bought these shoes for disc golf. You're basically walking through the woods and climbing hills. You are also putting pressure on your feet when you throw, especially my right foot. So far these shoes are performing as well as Keens or Merrills I have purchased in the past at higher prices, I just need to see if they last as long.
They are light and comfortable and so far so good in performance
If they last, the rating will go up

Very comfortable. A little warm. A little narrow. They make a bit of noise like plastic bags crumpling while you walk.
