I am fan of Columbia, these shoes are great! Unfortunately, I had to send back the first pair, I am 9.5 and the first pair did not fit at all they probably were a number 8 even that the shoe tag said 9.5, so I got a 10, this pair fit well. This is not the first time this happened to me I have Columbia shoes that fit me well but they are different sizes, I have 9, 9.5 and now 10. Wondering why is that? Perhaps some one from Columbia may want comment about it.

Normally with Columbia shoes I can wear either a size 9.5 or 10 - and I accommodate the difference by my sock thickness. However, when I ordered these shoes in 9.5 I had to exchange them for a 10. The 10 fits me perfectly and walking in these shoes is a dream. I also like that they are colorful but not gaudy. I'm very happy with my purchase -- and have been a happy Columbia customer for many years.

This shoes are very confortable and they are really water proof. I have been using them for a long walks on a wet path with some puddles and my feet has been always dry. Very good product from Columbia.

I bought these to wear while working (I clean pools). On average, I take between 12-15k steps a day. Very comfortable, great traction, supportive, waterproofing works well. Couldnt have asked for more!

Well, I've gotta be honest and tell you that these shoes are perhaps the best I have ever worn right out of the box! They are absolutely comfortable. Being waterproof I was a bit worried that my feet would swell from heat and get uncomfortably hot. Nope, that's not happening at all!! Needless to say anymore, I'm very satisfied with my purchase!

Very comfortable, durable shoe. I bought them for the waterproofing as I wanted to wear them for disc golf as it can get wet and muddy on the course. They're great for this purpose. Only complaint is the tread has worn off in less than a year, but when twisting on concrete as much as you do playing disc, that's to be expected.

I am between 10.5 and 11 size shoes, depending on where they are made I guess, got this model on 11 but it turned out to be a little too narrow on the toes, as soon as I put them on to try my big right toe started rubbing against the side and I figure if this happens on a long hike it would be very uncomfortable, love the style and looks, but had to return them.

The waterproof feature of this show holds up fine, but the overall quality of this show is poor. The upper has separated from the midsole within a day of use.

The shoes look good and are waterproof but the sizing is completely misleading. I have size 15 feet and have successfully worn Columbia shoes for years. This pair however is not only short in terms of length but are very narrow despite being labeled "wide". My big toe is very close to the end but I've chosen to keep them because it has become increasingly difficult to find a decent looking pair of waterproof shoes in size 15. However, I am quite disappointed that they do not fit properly. One thing that I do like about the shoes is the fit at the heel, which fits almost like a sock. They are very comfortable at the heel and provide good support. On the positive side, my feet do not overheat nearly as quickly as they do in other waterproof shoes.

I really wanted to like this shoe and purchased them because they were allegedly water proof. It's fine walking through grass and in the rain but walking a trail is a different story. I was walking a trail near my house and due to rain it was slightly covered with about an inch or two of water; just enough to cover the toe box up to the botton islet. As soon as I stepped in, water flooded in and now I have wet socks. Really disapointed and being in the pacific northwest can't count on it being dry.

These shoes are not a 5E. There not even a 4E in width. These are normal width shoes that were mislabeled online as 5E.

These shoes are fantastic and meet all the requirements I was looking for in a shoe, especially the extra rubberized section that goes over where my big toe seems to wear though the top of mesh shoes these days. Waterproof, Black/Grey, Highly versatile and stylish, Columbia hit a homerun with these shoes.

This is the 3rd pair I bought. They are great shoes for work and for riding bike to work. The waterproof part is a little questionable, but that might be due to socks and not being, well, boots.

These shoes are amazing! Incredible amount of traction in a sneaker and totally waterproof while also being comfortable. I totally prefer them to my hiking boots as they give the same amount of protection and traction but in a much more comfy package. Styling is pretty plain but these are my all-day shoe for the winter and I love them.

I have owned several of these shoes over the years, in both the low and high top version. They have all served me well and have become my favorite among hiking shoe offerings from Columbia. The Columbia Trailstorm is a very comfortable shoe that works well as an everyday shoe and also for light hikes. I found the fit to be perfect for me in my normal shoe size, but the wide version. The water resistance is excellent for such a lightweight and breathable shoe. All in all, a great shoe and a great value.
