First let's get to the nitty gritty details. I purchased this product in NOV 2023 for $57 at that time. Boots were worn atleast 3x a week, each week primary for fishing on different types of terrains including gravel, sand, cement, dirt, and rock ledges. Primarily used to fish in salt water from shore. Boots were also worn during the winter as a winter boot. FIT: Ordered size was a 9.5 wide in Mens. Fit is true to size and is appropriately wide. Toebox is roomy. No pinching above toebox or where the toe creases/boot bends. Cushioning is comfortable, slightly firm but shock absorbing. FORM: Boot is well made and seams remained solid even after two years. No tears or rips in materials. Cushioning started to bottom out after 1.5 years. Original insoles were removable and were easily replaced with aftermarket insoles. Boot is LIGHTWEIGHT compared to similar size/style boots. The weight was a nice surprise. FUNCTION: Durable boots. Comfortable and dependable. Grip provided was very good. Traction was consistent regarding of terrain. Average to above average for wear resistance. Though considering the environment this boot was put through and for the price at the time it was purchased, it is excellent. Waterproofing was great as long as the top/tongue of the boots were not submerged. No leaks from the side nor from the seams. However, after 1.5 years, noticed that waterproofing did start to deteriorate and would find that inside the shoes would be slightly damp on raining days/water splashed. Boots run slightly warmer with fair breathability. FINDINGS: The boots were fantastic for the price at the time and really held up through the test of almost daily fishing for two years in the toughest terrains. Always felt comfortable and traction was solid. Even after the insoles started to bottom out, it was easily replaced. The only concern I had with these boots was that waterproofing started to fail after 1.5 years. As someone who fishes near or at the water, staying dry was crucial to having a comfortable day fishing. As a result, these shoes were retired at 2 years. FUTURE: I decided to give another boot a try, the Nortiv 8 Armadillo PRO in size 9.5. After initial try on - I noticed that the shoe was too narrow and had slight pinching on the top of the foot. The boots were heavier than the columbia. Overall build quality was roughly the same and materials felt quality. However, due to the weight and fit of those boots, they will be returned. Instead, I have placed a reorder of the columbia newton ridge boots, even at a more expensive price of 100$ as of 11/2025.

I write this after 10 days with the boots and about 100 miles walked. No blisters, no issues. I am satisfied. I was preparing for a trip to Glacier NP, and in looking at my current boots (Costco, $30) I could see they were about to fail. (Not complaining. A year and 1/2 is good for $30). I found these Columbias were my best choice from Amazon's offering. At $70, they appear that they will last significantly longer than the Costco's. I like the smooth toe, and they are good looking boots. Color is not not top spec, but I don't want any clown colors. They describe the color is as "Nori, Dark Banana???" To me they are khaki green with light brown details. I use the Sof Sole High Arch inserts in all my shoes. The sizing is accurate. If you have problems with your feet, you might want to double-check the size of your feet. If your smaller foot is not a little loose in the boot, your boots are too small. Seems to me that on any hiking trip with more than 3 people, one of those persons is going to be complaining about their boots all the time. Update: I bought these boots in July 2018. Currently they have been demoted to grass cutting and yard work. The soles are wearing out. The grass is 4.5 miles each week behind a self-propelled mower. Beyond those miles I walk about 20+ miles/week. These Columbia boots have out-lived two newer pairs of boots. One pair from Timberland (Amazon) and another pair by Eddie Bauer (SAMS). I was looking at my history in Amazon today trying to decide what the next boots should be. Looks like it wlll be another pair of these Columbias. They fit true to size. They are medium wide, not narrow, not too wide. They are comfortable for me. I still believe my original title is true.

I've worn various shoes/boots bearing the Columbia marque for ten or twelve years now. My job has me on my feet 8-10 hours a day constantly walking back and forth. I started off wearing regular low-cut walking/hiking shoes but quickly changed to the mid-boot style for better ankle support. I've worn both the Crestwood and Redmond varieties and both worked well. Both styles lasted me about 18 months but invariably, because of their construction combined with choice of materials, ultimately wore out at the same place... where the toe-box flexes by the ball of your foot. The woven fabric material inevitably developed holes at this point.... no matter how well I took care of them. I recently decided to try these Newton Ridge Plus IIs and am quite surprised. They looked a bit "clunky" in the photos but they fit like a dream. I've never had a shoe/boot fit so well and they're much lighter than what they look like in photos. I wanted an all-around waterproof boot that will hold up to winter weather... doing chores... going food shopping... general work-day use and these look like they'll fill the bill... time will tell. If they wear as well as they fit, they're my choice going forward. Plus... they don't cost a fortune. Comparable boots by Keene, Merrell and Timberland regularly run $40-$50 more.

I have been a devout Merrell boot buyer for well over a decade. All that has ended. They first discontinued by favorite boot, replaced it with one one similar, and what used to last me two years now costs more and doesn't last 6 months. Next was a comparable pair of Wolverines, no arch support in them what so ever, and given my high arch, they went back immediately. I was never really familiar with Columbia products up until Xmas a year ago when my sister bought me one of their soft shell jackets. Loved that thing. Well the zipper failed on it this past fall and I contacted columbia. They gave me full price credit on the jacket for their website. FOund them on sale, and replaced the one jacket with two!. Given my boot situation I decided to order these from Columbia and see how their footwear stacks up since they obviously stand behind their product. Just got them today (ordered yesterday, thanks Amazon Prime). Unboxed them and everything looks great. Nice grippy material on the sole, stitching looks good, color is as expected. Not quite as much arch support as I'd hoped for, but at leas there's some. One thing I always appreciated about Merrell is I could take off a two yr old pair of their boots, put a brand new pair on, and hardly be able to tell a difference. They just fit well out of the box. Not saying that is the case with these from Columbia, but I don't think break-in will be a big deal. They are comfortable out of the box. Sizing is good, I ordered a 10.5 and they fit good. Lace hoops and catches are metal, not plastic. And they are pretty light for an ankle top hiking boot. I'll be wearing these daily for work, and while I don't abuse my boots, I am a trade worker so they'll see some beating. I'll wear them when working on the property on weekends cutting and clearing brush, bouncing around on the tractor, just general work. I'll wear them hunting in mild weather, and fishing as well. These boots will get tested for a while and I'll update as things progress. Should they fail we'll test Columbia's dedication to their product again, my last experience with them in that was great. More to come.

These boots feel great. First pair of leather boots, so I didn't know what to expect. So far, they're water proof (except on the tongue). The rubber on the bottom of the boots feels softer, but it also feels like the rubber "teeth" sort of flex to fit rocks and stones better when I'm walking on uneven terrain. So far so good. *update* half a year in and still great. Im using these for hiking, airsoft, and work. Favorite boots by far and still very comfortable. *2nd update!* The second picture (on the carpet) is after 18 months of use. The tread is still great. I've been wearing these daily since my previous update - for an entire year now. I still love these boots. They're still very comfortable and my feet have remained dry this long. I'm truly impressed and recommend them any chance I get. I wear 12 wide and can't imagine buying a different boot when it's time to update. I should note that I used mink oil on the leather when I got these. A friend at work suggested leaving it on for 24 hours and gently wiping it off. I haven't treated the leather or taken care of these boots in any other way since that day. I know there are bad reviews out there, but if you're selling a ton of anything, there will be lemons. I abuse the crud out of these boots. I've been building a house, hauling gravel, cutting trees, working, and still doing trails and my other hobbies... these are worth every penny.

I bought these two years ago, at least partly because I could get the boots in extra-wide. They've been used almost exclusively for my frequent hikes although I they were my main shoe for a recent three-week trip to Europe. They are extremely comfortable and show very little wear for the many miles I've put on them, much of it being on rocky trails.

I do stonework and other landscaping and am as hard on boots as you can possibly be. boots usually only last me 4-5 months and that’s pushing it because i wear them until they are completely destroyed. i just went to reorder these and realized i’ve had them for 2 years, and they still aren’t in bad shape. the soles are still together which is usually the first to go. the tread is pretty much gone and they have lacerations so they are no longer water proof but they’re still solid after 2 very hard years. i’d keep rockin em but going into winter i really need new ones that are waterproof. for a hiking boot these held up under the most extreme work conditions for 2 years. they often are on a good sale if you aren’t picky with the color. i never write reviews but these were impressive i’ll continue getting these every 2 years. best thing goin for the price if you’re hard on boots.

I have only used these boots outside once so far, but they seem to be working well. I wore them while I put up my tent yesterday. It was 26°F with 15 mph winds and a wind chill of 12°F and my feet were warm the entire time. Not even a hint of chill. I was wearing a regular pair of socks with a pair of wool socks over them, but even when I wear those socks with my regular work boots, the cold can set in fairly quickly. I ordered them a half size up from my regular shoe size based on another reviewer's suggestion. It was definitely a good call. With the wool socks on, the fit is snug to say the least. I have a somewhat wide foot so these boots seem a bit narrow, and I was disappointed that there wasn't a wide option for these. I would say that if you have had consistent issues in your life with finding shoes / boots wide enough for you, you may want to look for something else. And as others have mentioned, the toe box is indeed small. My toes aren't squished in or anything, but they certainly don't have much room in there. I will update my review after they get a bit more use. By then I should be able to comment on the waterproof aspect. UPDATE: I've broken the boots in a bit more and I'm very glad I purchased them. The grip is outstanding and the waterproof aspect seems to hold true. I wouldn't go using them the same way as knee-high rain boots, but I wouldn't worry on wet ground, light rain, or shallow creeks. I've done all of that with them. The big test came when I was on the West Coast. I was wearing them on the beach as the waves came in and a few of them were higher than expected. They went over my boots and wet my pant legs about a foot off the ground. Even though it was over the boot strings and the flap, only a tiny bit of water made it in and got the top of my socks wet. I was expecting fully soaked, but that wasn't the case. This happened about 3 times too. Give them a shot!
