Amazon.com | Columbia mens Newton Ridge Plus Ii Waterproof Hiking Boot, Black/Black, 11.5 US | Hiking Boots

It's VERY hard for someone as tall as me at 6'9'' to trust anyone online for clothes and especially shoes. I really prefer trying things on first just to know it's going to fit how abnormally tall I am. I took a shot at buying these in my usual size of 15 and they fit great. Very tight initially and it's going to take a while to wear-in but I think that's a good sign.For hiking I'm not too sure, as I prefer a low top shoe for that. These are above the ankle and stiff as a board so it would be awkward I would think to hike in these. At least for me.I'll update this later if it's not waterproof or acting off. For now.. Great price, Good Shoes.

The weight is perfect and they look great, i don't question Columbia as a brand, they're excellent and the quality is exceptional, but had to return them because as soon as i put them on i felt them tight on the sides and started hurting my archs. All my shoes are size 13 (normal), but a 13 (Wide) on these would of made a difference for me i guess. Other that this, there's a lot of space for the toes and feels good on the heels, they were easy to put on and take off and very comfortable to tie compared to others, very well cushioned on the bottom and padded on the sides, and the shoe toe is flexible enough while being protective against a common hit.

For the past ten years, the Columbia Men's Newton Ridge Plus WP Hiking Shoe has been my top choice for hiking. These boots excel in waterproofing, keeping my feet dry on wet trails and through shallow streams. Their durability is impressive, with high-quality full-grain leather and sturdy construction that withstands frequent hikes.Comfort is a key feature, with excellent support and cushioning. The lightweight midsole provides long-lasting comfort and superior energy return. The rubber sole offers great traction, especially on wet surfaces, ensuring stability and safety on steep or rocky trails.Affordability is another major plus. Despite their high quality, these boots are reasonably priced, making them a great value. The Columbia Men's Newton Ridge Plus WP Hiking Shoe is perfect for anyone looking for reliable, durable, and comfortable hiking footwear at an excellent price point.

These really feel good without the need to buy additional insoles. They are perfect for work and make nice trekking boots too. I love the look, they keep your feet warm but not hot and are a great fit with non slip bottoms.

These shoes feel fantastic! They are very true to size, and they fit me just perfectly. The craftsmanship and design look wonderful, and I haven't seen or experienced any issues with them so far. I ordered these as hiking boots, and possibly as winter boots, but they look so nice, I kind feel bad about possibly scuffing them up!The support around the ankle area seems adequate to me, but I immediately removed the insoles from these shoes. They're just thin pads, and although they were comfortable, they didn't provide the arch support I wanted. I had some high arch insoles that slid right in, and now I'm ready to go. I tend to overpronate, especially with my left foot, due to a prior injury, but with the insoles in these, and the added support around the ankle, these should be just great for me!Awesome quality, stylish appearance, and a great value, in my opinion!
