Escape Pursuit Sports Shoes for Men

If you’re in the market for hiking shoes that make you feel like you’re striding through nature with the confidence of a man in a shampoo commercial, allow me to introduce you to the Columbia Woodburn II Waterproof Wonders. Yes, Waterproof with a capital W, because these things repel water like they’ve sworn a personal vendetta against moisture. I’ve stepped in puddles, mud, suspiciously shiny patches on the trail—you name it—and my socks stayed drier than my social life on a Friday night. Style-wise, they’re surprisingly sharp. Not “runway model” sharp, but definitely “the forest ranger will nod approvingly” sharp. They’ve got that rugged, outdoorsy look that says, “I could wrestle a bear if I had to—but I won’t, because I respect wildlife.” Cushioning? Like walking on little clouds that went to therapy and are now emotionally supportive. My feet felt hugged—firmly but lovingly. Comfort is top-tier; I’ve worn them for hours, and not once did my toes try to file a complaint. Durability is also impressive. These shoes feel like they were built to survive not just trails, but possibly the next three world-ending apocalypses. The grip is phenomenal too—sticky enough to keep you steady on wet rocks, muddy slopes, or that one annoyingly wobbly bit of pavement outside your house. Value for money? Okay, they’re a bit pricey. Let’s just say my wallet sighed deeply, the way a parent does when a child announces they’re taking up an expensive hobby. But honestly? Worth every penny. These are “buy once, use forever, brag about occasionally” shoes. Sizing was spot-on for me. Not too tight, not too loose—Cinderella wishes her shoe fit this well. In conclusion: waterproof, stylish, comfortable, durable, grippy, slightly expensive but gloriously worth it. If these shoes were a person, I’d take them on a hike and thank them for their service.

These have just leapfrogged my Salomon Elixir Activ hiking boots to become the most comfortable walking shoe I own. They look great on and are so comfortable on long distance walks. They respond really well on tarmac but I have yet to try these in wet, muddy conditions but will probably use a mid-rise hiking boots for those conditions. Great value and are so well-made with quality materials.

I’ve had this pair of shoes for two months now and have probably walked about 400+ miles in them in that time. All in all they are very good and were comfortable straight out of the box. No special insoles required as the factory ones are really very good. Size is exactly right for me a perfect 10, not too tight for width and with a nice rounded toe section that allows some movement. They are low cut, and really light, and walking is really easy, but they don’t have a heel at all, so you need to be mindful if you like a heel section that promotes a forward foot press. Waterproofing is a slight problem, the tongue section around the laces was not totally waterproof at all, however a double coating of nikwax seems to have solved this for me, and they are now pretty much water tight. Of course I had to buy that solution so prepare for that. Also to mention again these are really low cut, dropping way below your ankle bone, more like trainers, and long wet grass can make your socks wet above the shoe line, as all low cut shoes would do. All in all, pretty good, comfortable and look great, can recommend but buy some waterproofing solution.

What I like about these walking shoes is that they do what they're meant to do. By that I mean they're waterproof. I've had several pairs from other brands in the recent past that were meant to be waterproof that either leaked like a sieve or let dribbles in after not very much exposure to water. Not these! I've worn them for about a month, every morning, in soaking grass walking the dog and not the slightest trace of liquid has got past them. Apart from that they are supremely comfortable, they did take a day or two to wear in but now are perfect. Size wise they are nearly true to size, I'm a 9/43 and they fit well enough but I'd say that they are quite narrow. This suits me but for anybody with medium to wide feet I'd go up a half size. All in all though, a fantastic pair of shoes so far and even if they wore out in a year or so I'd get another pair without hesitation. Edit: One year later and they're still working fine. I've worn them every day and mostly in wet grass and still watertight. I do give them a cost of Dubbin every now and then to be sure. I've just bought another pair to wear alternately to let them dry.

Scelte come unico paio di scarpe da portare ad Agosto in Islanda. Scelta rischiosa ed azzardata ma devo dire che sono estremamente soddisfatto dell’acquisto. Le scarpe calzano bene (numero di scarpe perfetto), sono confortevoli, tengono il piede caldo e asciutto e sono anche belle da vedere. Sono basse, lasciano libere le caviglie e per i trekking medio leggeri sono più che ottime. Totalmente impermeabili; insomma resistere al clima islandese, alle cascate, alla pioggia fitta che trafigge é già di per sé garanzia di elevata qualità. Ne consiglio assolutamente l’acquisto e comprerò probabilmente un altro paio per il mio prossimo viaggio alle Lofoten in Norvegia.

Boa qualidade Excelente conforto Recomendo

Bota de buena calidad, cómodas para uso continuado, bien terminadas y buen agarre. El envío con Amazon perfecto, en un día en casa. Hay DOS modelos que NO son Waterproof, concretamente los modelos color Marrón (Cordovan Garnet Red 231) y Negro (Black, Goldenrod); los otros dos si. Me equivoque al elegirlo y las tuve que devolver. En cuanto al tamaño tallan grande, tener en cuenta lo siguiente. TALLA 44 SON 29CM TALLA 43 SON 28CM Nada que ver con lo que se indica en la tabla de tallas de la marca.

Ich habe mir die Schuhe aufgrund vieler positiver Bewertungen gekauft. Und ich wurde nicht enttäuscht. Ich bin gerade 1 Woche durch den bayerischen Wald wandern gewesen. Jeden Tag ca. 20 km . Die Schuhe waren sehr angenehm zu tragen und mir schmerzten nie die Füße. Es sind tatsächlich Schuhe, die man auch im Alltag noch sehr gut tragen kann. Gegen Nässe haben die Schuhe auch meine Füße trocken gehalten. Ich habe immer Schuhgröße zwischen 45-46 Ich habe mir die Schuhe in Größe 46 gekauft. Diese passen hervorragend. Alles in Allem kann ich die Schuhe sehr empfehlen.
