Love these boots. They are very sturdy while still looking feminine.

Even though I ordered a wide, these do not feel wide. At all. The toe box is fine. However, they are right across the ball of my feet, which is where I need the space.

So far i am pleased with this boot. It is significantly cheaper than alot of other brands. Doesn't rub with first wear which is important. Only wish it had a bit more padding in insoles.

I like the color, fits small. I bought my normal size at first but I had to return it and bought a larger size

Boot is comfortable, supportive and light but the eyes and laces are awkward to lace and quick to loosen.

I bought this pair of hiking boots last year around this time, I usually wear them during 1-2 hours walk in the woods every week. I have been wear them for a couple days everyday recently and I found out the tip of the shoes broke my big toe nail horizontally in half, I know some people break their toe nails often due to others issues, but this have never happened to me until I wore these boots. I was so sad because the boots are in good condition and they are cute, but unfortunately they arent designed for long walks or everyday wear.

This is my second time purchasing. They're a great go-to waterproof hiker. Not much ankle support, but very comfortable and have served me well on short/medium hikes. They were also perfect on a recent trip to Iceland in October! Nice and waterproof and plenty warm for me with hiking socks.

I love the style and color of the boots, they look just like the website image. In general they are comfortable which is a rare occurrence for any shoe or boot when it comes to my feet. I have very small feet 5.5, but they are WIDE. I ordered the 5.5 wide and like I said they fit, but they could be wider they were still very narrow in the toe box, I can't imagine what a "normal" non wide boot would have felt like. I did NOT get blisters the first hike (not really a hike more like a walk in the woods with LOTS of stairs 1590 to be exact). Overall I recommend the boots, I am hoping over time the toe box will stretch a little.

I bought these boots in both gray and black the black ones for work and the gray ones for casual wear. I changed the black and red laces because my uniform is all black. I wear the Superfeet EVERYDAY Comport insoles in them. They are so comfortable with the insoles. I’m knocking off one star because they are not the most slip resistant and they wear down quite quickly. Other than that I love them. They run true to size

Gorgeous and great quality but run big. Like a whole size big of not more, in my experience. I ordered a size 7 which is my usual except for Hokas but my feet were swimming around in these shoes so they had to go back. I still want them but am afraid to order because not sure what the right size on these for me will be and this is not a free shipping and returns deal.

These are decent boots at a decent price. I have an array of foot issues (flat feet, bunions, etc.). I've had these boots for over two years and they are holding up great. The boots offer only moderate arch support, but I slip in orthotics under the footpad which gives me good support. Sometimes when I'm walking downhill, my toes feel a little scrunched, but that may have to do with the nature of my mishapen toes. I would recommend these.

I bought these boots with trepidation because a) they were dirt cheap, (why? what does everybody know that I don't?) and b) I have highly intolerant feet: arthritis, and nearly constant plantar fascitis on one foot. Boy was I wrong! The first time I wore them, I went nonstop for 6 hours on a hot, muggy afternoon digging out underbrush & hauling it away. And the cranky feet were as comfortable as they have been for literally months if not years

Originally ordered and got these in size 9 1/2 and they were too small. Columbia does seem inconsistent with sizing . Zappos allowed for an exchange and UPS pickup so I ordered in size 10. The size 10 arrived two days later and the fit is much better. Only time will tell how well they hold up. I have ordered Columbias before and I'm generally pleased wit them. For some, 9 1/2 fit good, for others, the 9 1/2 ran small.

Fits well and is wide enough. Doesn't pull up in the heel. Very light. I like lots of arch support and cushion and these have regular amounts so if you don't have heel spurs or very high arches these will be fine.

I bought these because I couldn't resist the adorable purple / lilac color. I have wide feet, so I purchase my regular size in a Wide. Have to say, it is the most narrow "wide" size I've worn. Still pretty narrow in my toe box, enough to hurt my toes when going downhill for more than 4 miles. The color is pretty, but if you're using these to actually go hiking, it just gets covered in dirt and the visual appeal of it pretty much goes away.

Good looking boots. Ordered 8W however was a bit stiff especially in sole. Also wish the second to top hook was closer to the tongue for better adjustment at the ankle. Ended up going with different brand that gave more flex in the sole.

LOVE that these are so lightweight and not chunky. They do run a bit small. I normally get 7.5 for activewear shoes and got 7 and these fit perfect. They're super cute as well. However, I find the ankle support to be lacking and it doesn't have the extra hooks by the ankles to make it tighter at the joint like how some brands do. I wouldn't wear these on rocky or super uneven terrain. I would recommend Vasque leather hiking boots for those kinds of hikes!

Super cute hiking boots. I was sad that they are a little too tight in the toes, so I am returning them.

Comfortable except for the upper ankle area. The shoes' tongue irritated my feet, even though I wore boot socks.
