Customer Reviews Columbia Trailstorm Waterproof Hiking Shoes

The shoe was a well made shoe; however, the wide width did not seem to be any wider that the regular width that I tried on in the store.

I was worried after reading reviews about this shoe not being wide enough as I normally wear a 12W shoe. I decided to order a size up (13W). While the length was fine, the wide style was still very restricting and narrow even after sizing up. The shoe felt comfortable other than the narrow aspect so it will be great for those who it fits correctly. Read the other reviews and take the warnings seriously about being narrow even when ordering the wide version.

Even though I bought the wid size version, they are not quite wide enough for me.

i didn’t get my shoes delivered too me

This shoe is very ill fitting. Ir runs very small and narrow

I bought these shoes in late May of 2021. They are quite comfortable for everyday wear and I do a fair amount of walking at work. They are mostly waterproof, although I felt some dampness on the right shoe while walking through wet grass or a light rain. My main issue with this shoe is that the outer layer is ripping on both shoes. Within 2 months the left shoe has a rip along the top, near the front. It's the outer layer but a shoe shouldn't be ripping this quickly. The right shoe now has a few spots that look like they are going to rip. I reached out to Columbia's warranty department as clearly this shoe was poorly put together and while they will take the shoe back and provide me with a credit they refused to pay for shipping. Their product is faulty and as the customer, I shouldn't be expected to pay for something when I did nothing wrong to cause the issue. As a frequent Columbia customer, I'm extremely disappointed with this policy.

I ordered wide fit but feels narrower than regular fit. Returned it.

I typically buy size 9 but had to exchange these to 9.5. Traction is good. Comfort is ok. When I was cleaning them the first time after a muddy and snowy hike, water was bidding up on the fabric. After the third hike, water is not bidding up anymore. I ended up with slightly wet feet. Waterproof qualities that last for 3 hikes is rather subpar for my liking.

Good shoe, definitely waterproof. Would be a 5 out of 5 if I had known they run small I usually get a 9.5 in Columbia shoes but this material was tighter then normal. Definitely get a half size up for sure.

Although the shoe does feel comfortable I am very disappointed that the shoe is clearly all grey and in the pictures displayed in the site it is clearly supposed to be a beige color upper and white/beige lower.

The color is different, in the photo it looks lighter, beige, however the shoes that arrived are gray. It is not the same color nor does it look the same as the photos.

Shoes were easily 1/2 size too big. This model also very clunky. The picture looks like they may be more sleek, but they definitely are not. Big, boxy. I'm sure the waterproof feature would be great, but the fit and overall size were not what I was looking for.

I'm disappointed, I bout these 2 years ago, I had them still in the box up to 4 months ago, after some casual use the fabric on top where fabric meets that clear protective coating over the toes is ripping apart from the natural bending of feet, the clear protective coating does not bend, there for its like a knife to the fabric..

I received this shoe yesterday, and have worn it mostly around the house to break them in. The toe piece already is peeling off one of them and the coating on the top of the toe already has chipped off.

This is a pretty nice looking shoe, and it is quite comfortable to walk in. The deal-breaker is the absolute lack of breathability, causing the most sweat-soaked prune-like feet after a day at work (in the office) I've ever experienced. I don't know if it's too late to return the shoes after wearing for two days, but if I can't return them, I will save them for days that I'll be walking in snow maybe... but that's what my boots are for, hmmm.

Runs at least a size or size and a half small. I wear a 12 in three other pairs of Columbia shoes and boots and this is more like a 10.5 or 11. Also makes a plastic crinkling sound, maybe that will go away when you wear them in. Overall appearance is much more bulky and rounded than the sleek pictures. Seems like a good shoe though if you get the right size.

Very tight from front , and painful once you walk. I found it ver pointy

Shoe looks great but not wide. I bought a 10.5 wide in Columbia before not having a problem. But this shoe was not wide at all.

I was disappointed because the shoes are too narrow in front. As a result I returned them. They were listed as white but I don't believe they were wide.
