Customer Reviews Columbia Fairbanks™ Low

Great fit, great color and overall look. We live in a mountain town and these shoes are great for all seasons

I thoroughly the fit and comfort. As comfortable as slippers and rugged for trail walks. My only issue is the laces. Way to long. I had to purchase a shorter set. Twice I was told by nurses at two different clinics. "It looks like they sold you more lace than shoe."

This is my second pair and they are just as good as the first. A lot of support and suitable for my orthotics. Can easily wear them all day.

A nice looking and stylish shoe that is extremely comfortable.

This is the second time I have bought these shoes for my husband.

I have had two pairs over 6 months. The biggest flaw with these is, if you walk daily, the heals wear very quickly. Plan on replacing every three months. Certainly not hiking shoes, as they are too low and heels never hold up. A quality shoe should hold up for six months minimum... Colombia also discontinued the best selling color (solid black)???

Great shoe, and is fairly stylish which is hard to find for a trail made shoe. Quite breathable as well.

I am a very flat and wide 12, and am apparently so "particular" that everyone refuses to shoe shop with me. My second pair of these are wearing down now, and I am ordering my third. This is one of those finds that's made me consider ordering a pallet of them for the day that they inevitably discontinue them. They're a bit more four wheel drive than most skate shoes (I originally recommended these on a skate forum), but they're grippy and insanely comfortable right out of the box. I wear flip flops year round, so my toes enjoy their space, and the toe box in this shoe is like none I've ever found. 10/10.

Very comfortable and great for many uses from hiking, walking to everyday casual.

Purchased to replace a several year old model of the same pair. Comfortable to wear (fairly light), semi-dressy for sneakers, breathable, looked reasonably good still after many miles of walking. Happy that they still had the same model available and expect them to be just as good.

This is the PERFECT casual shoe. It can be dressed up or down. It has plenty of room in the toe area and supports the heel. Great for a day at the house or on the town.

The sole on the right foot is very uncomfortable, feel a bump on the arch

Perfect shoes for routine use, excellent quality..

Very comfortable fit with breathable material so my feet dont overheat or get sweaty.

Very comfortable, Versatile Shoe! Great in snow and ice just for everyday wear!

Bought shoes on Amazon, loved them until the sole started coming unglued, Columbia will not cover them under warranty unless I pay to ship them back at my own cost. After years of owning many Columbian products, I will start looking for a new company to buy from.

Im probably on my 5th pair of these shoes. They are comfortable for me, i wear them everyday, for work and going out.

Amazing built quality and also super comfortable shoes. It's kinda whide so there's lot's of room for the toes which makes it more comfortable.

It is definitely a shoe for a people with a wide foot. Runs large. Quality is not so great but it is fine for the price.

Good shoes, very comfortable for everyday use. Haven't used on a trail, but they would probably be good for light short hiking over even terrain.

Extremely comfortable, lightweight and breathable

The shoe construction is ok and can stand up to the conditions you find outside. The fit is bad and after a month of using them I'm giving up. The back is very hard and has a steep angle so if your foot is all the way back it will chew up the back of your foot. The tongue (the thing in the middle between the laces has a super thick end piece that will press on top of your toes. If you tie it slightly loose so that the back of your foot doesn't become hamburger after about 30 mins of hiking or trail running then you get to experience your toes slamming into the front of your shoe. I had these shoes a month to see if they would get better after a wear in period but I'm tired of waiting and getting something else. If you go with these shoes I would recommend a half to a full size bigger.
