Women's Newton Ridge Plus Waterproof Amped Hiking Boot

I've tried a lot of different hiking shoes on lately and these are hands down the best. They have good ankle support but literally feel like a sneaker. I thought I'd have to do some major breaking in before taking them out for a good hike but I actually didn't at all. Fits true to size, great traction. For the price, the comfort, and the quality, you just can't beat it. Buying again!

This photo is from after a full week of being a sponsor at a very rainy, very muddy week of church camp. These boots got muddy and very wet multiple times. I did not clean them or even wipe them down...they just repelled all the mud and water off themselves. It's magical. Aside from their magical properties, the fit and quality of these boots are incredible. The toe box is wide enough for my toes to feel very comfortable and not squished at all. I wear long socks with these, and my ankle doesn't get rubbed raw or feel sore/tender, even after wearing these all day for a week straight. These boots also have a great amount of support. As far as functionality, I can vouch for these being a great option for muddy, wet, rocky, and flat environments. They feel about as light as a normal pair of shoes, so it doesn't feel like you're having to drag your feet around. The colors are beautiful, too! I've had these for about a year, and they've stayed as vibrant as they were when I got them. If you're looking for a pair of hiking boots that are high quality, comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, feel like they will last a very long time, and won't break the bank, buy these shoes!

These hiking boots have been with me for over a year now and I can say that it is durable, comfortable, grippy, and cute. It’s been through snow, dirt, sand, mud, and mostly gravel. I live in Vegas but I have brought these to the mountains in Virginia. I got the gray ones with pink stripes and it goes with any outfit in my opinion. I recommend these boots for those who hike beginner-intermediate trails.

Great boots really no break in time , only thing and it’s my mistake I have neuropathy and and bunion on one foot I bought the 8 1/2 wide a little bit to big I should have got a 8 wide but still no complaints love it !!

I recently purchased these hiking shoes and I must say, they have been a game-changer for my outdoor adventures. Even though the temperature tends to be a bit warmer than I prefer during hikes, the breathability of these shoes has kept my feet surprisingly sweat-free. Not only are they functional, but they're also super cute. The design is stylish and eye-catching, which is a nice bonus for someone like me who values both fashion and functionality. What truly sets these shoes apart, though, is the level of comfort they provide. I have wide feet, so opting for the white sides was a brilliant choice as they offer the width I need without compromising on style. Durability is a key factor for me when it comes to hiking shoes, and these shoes do not disappoint. They have withstood various terrains and challenges, proving to be up to the task. The laces are excellent, ensuring a secure fit throughout the entire hike. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the color of the shoes matches the picture perfectly, which is not always the case with online purchases. Speaking of fit, these shoes have nailed it. They fit like a glove, providing the necessary support and comfort to make each step enjoyable. Based on my experience, I wholeheartedly recommend these hiking shoes to anyone in need of a reliable, stylish, and comfortable companion for their outdoor explorations.

Great boots!! I’ve worn them a few times since buying them, but most recently we took a hike in Fern Canyon and if you’ve been there or know about it, you know it’s WET and I finished nearly dry!! Seriously! Almost ankle deep water and the only time water got it was when I splashed it up and over the top with my other foot, but probably could have been avoided if I tied higher/tighter. Waterproof for sure and kept my feet warm in the cold wet terrain. So comfy and so cute, lightweight too! Buy them!

So, I switched from a pair of KEEN Targhee, to these and honestly they're phenomenal. These Columbia hiking boots have the right amount of support, and I felt like I could actually be out longer without any type of foot/ankle pain. These will be my go-to from now on! UPDATE ON THESE BAD BOYS They are a blessing. My husband, dog and I hiked through a flooded area on the trail (gotta love New England floods) and my feet didn't get wet until the water was over the boots. We were climbing rocks in certain spots, and I felt as if I ACTUALLY had balance and grip. My feet didn't hurt whatsoever, even after a 5 mile hike. They are a blessing. I plan on buying another pair to save for backups! And, another update: A year later, these are still my favorite hiking boots. I'm about to buy my 2nd pair! They're so comfortable, I have zero issues wearing them all day. I've put about 23 miles this year onto them, and I haven't had a single complaint. The waterproofing is still holding up well, I know eventually it'll have to be done again. But I can genuinely say, get these boots. I got them in 9 Wide (plus size hiker, and my feet like to swell) the only thing I did was lace them differently so I wouldn't have top of the foot pressure. 12/10 love them. Will continue to buy them when I need (or, just want another colorway) another pair of boots!

I read the reviews wherever I could find them. I had become very confused over the sizing. I have a hard enough time getting the right size without this much of a difference thrown at me too! I was in love @first glance, beautiful dark gray with aqua strings. Ordered size 7 as suggested though I wear a size 6.5 or 6. Feet measures a size 5-5.5, L=8.5" R=8.7". There lies the rub, right foot doesn't fit sizes same as left one by a fraction so hit or miss. Also, remember, as you age, your feet spread causing sizing up like me to 6.5 in shoes, 7 usually in boots but style can put you back to regular size if they are rounded toe box or squared box mostly in western styles. Shoes strings are very helpful as they can be adjusted to make more room, not more length. Overall best choice in any type of foot covering is "Leather", your friend for stretching if little small as they will mold to feet. They state cushioned, I don't agree. I have my own & needed them! This is where you need to be aware of how much room they take up which usually is where your width will come into play. Just as socks take up space, so do inserts, sometimes a lot. At this point, you might want to try sizing down 1/2 and go with wide. As you go from traditional sizes to wide, every size up in wide, i.e., from size 6 down to 5W adds another fraction of an inch to length, keep this in mind when options are limited, you might find a happy 'medium' in a smaller size wide (haha). Back to the size sessions; First was great price on 7's, looked order back up and saw ordered from warehouse! Wow, what a great mistake... for my sis! You MUST try & always make such great mistakes, was much less, new & 30 day return (check to make sure.) They were too great a price, so sis got them for Xmas, she was gaga over them. Done & done. Next, I ordered size 6, suggested 6.5, too bad, too big but kept just in case.... the size 5's I was ordering now, 3rd try, didn't fit even though suggested I wear a 6 now! Well the 5's came and went, that fraction of inch on R foot, felt fine, but only for few minutes, just fraction too small in toes based on R foot! Last and 4th time! Wow! That tells you how badly I wanted these shoes, they just checked off too many boxes to let them go without a good fight. The 5.5's I was sure would fit in a WIDE, had been costly, at over $100 if remember correctly. Figures! Only size left & at most expensive price! Waited a day later, 5.5W's & more sizes had come in, ordered them up and got them in about a day. Crossed fingers as I thought they were a yes. I have them on now, they feel like they should have been on my feet the whole time! So, the size 5.5W is my size w/just enough room for thick socks or thinner ones. I live in Florida, though kids live in Denver & Boise & France. These will work out fine for all places as it is warm today here & fit & feel great! Updated: 12/1/23, getting later, quicker! After size 7, 6, 5W, 5.5W and guess what? Another size 6 was ordered at new price 1/2 off all others, came few days later. Wondering what was wrong w/1st size 6's? Nothing, just needed to make sure of correct size due to computer blindness, too much shopping. I was getting goofy and thought perhaps all in my head, being too careful. I was traveling to snow country & would need thicker socks made all the difference, not to mention the inserts. Merry Christmas Folks! Good Luck with your sizing, hope this finally solves some problems??? Footnote(ha!): Embarrassed, after wearing the size 6's for almost 2yrs, have held up excellent. But I began wondering if I shouldn't have gotten smaller size? Only in wide. I tried from 5-5.5W & I ended up ordering a 5W, 3 more pairs! I couldn't figure what the heck? I think losing 20+lbs helped. There's only 1 dilemma sizing from regular sizes to wide, 'additional' room throughout/around entire toe bed & instep you 'gain' in addition to length. Wide isn't actually shorter sized in comparison to regular size, they're actually a fraction of inch longer. I suppose it's adjustment is due to overall wider girth? Just keep in mind in case you can't get your size, you may fit in smaller wide! Oh, were also about $30 each! Score!
