Not Durable for Everyday Wear

I wear hiking shoes everyday on my small farm in East Texas. I purchased these hiking boots wanting more breathability than full leather uppers of the upper for the hot summer months. The upper fabric simply could not withstand the wear demands on the farm. The right boot tore first when it got snagged on a branch or a briar vine and I pulled my foot through it. Then the left upper was torn when a heifer stepped on my foot. The left incurred a 2nd tear from an unknown cause. The shoes are just months old and now useless. At least the heatwave seems to be breaking. I decided to look elsewhere (not Columbia) for my next pair.

Excellent, very good

Excellent, very good, I gave them to my dad and he loved them. He lives in Ecuador and goes to work in the countryside every day and they have served him very well, the city where he lives is very hot and these shoes are cooler than most of their kind

Yes, I recommend this product.

VERY Disappointed

An absolute DUD! I ordered the exact same size as the last 5 pairs of Columbia footwear and they seemed to fit the same. GOD WAS I WRONG! I wore them for a hike and knew right away something was wrong. The bend on the toe section rubbed against the top of my toes and when the hike was done my socks were a bloody mess. I am a VERY loyal Columbia customer and have purchased waaaaay more products than I need, so figured that might help with returning these boots (they have a very strict policy for returns). I was even more WRONG. THEY DID NOT BUDGE, so now I’m stuck with boots I will NEVER wear again. And you know what else I will never wear again: any additional Columbia products!
