They come in Wide!! - My child’s class has had a field trip to a nature preserve every year so far, and my old generic hiking boots from a big box store were not cutting it, as they didn’t come in wide so I had to size up, which of course ended up giving my blisters and not supporting my ankles well.i was so happy to find real hiking boots that come in women’s wide! These fit a lot like New Balance. I wear a 9.5 Wide in Brooks and a 9 Wide in New Balance, and the 9 Wide in these boots fit perfectly, still with enough room for proper hiking socks. I am not a hiker (lifelong ankle problems), but these are super useful to have. I wear them for any time I get to do hiking type activities, but also just for errands etc when it’s raining and I don’t want to deal with wet socks from wearing running shoes. I find these have good ankle support, and the footbed is removable so I can put my trusty Superfeet Berry inserts in them. The platform of these boots is wide enough and solid enough to give me great arch support with my inserts. They are a bit stiff but in a good way—they’re supportive. I didn’t not find them uncomfortably stiff even when brand new. I do like to feel support for my feet and ankles though—I find the minimal shoe trend horrifying. I have not had any issues with the soles slipping, and I wear them often when it’s wet out. Not sure how they would perform in icy conditions, but I don’t think they’re made for that. They keep my feet cool enough in the summer and fall, despite being full leather. I purchased them on sale for about sixty bucks and feel they were a great value. They seem to be good quality and the fit is perfect. Review: Outstanding boots! - It took me 5 pairs before I finally got the right size for these. Most Columbia boots run small and narrow. I know this because I own two different types of Columbia snow boots. They are the only brand I wear for snow/winter for the last 20 - 30 years. I bought these assuming they would also run small, big mistake. If you buy the right size, when you put these on, you won’t want to take them off because they are that comfortable. I normally wear 9-9.5 medium width shoes. I purchased a 10 wide, a half size up from my usual shoe size range, to allow for my feet to have plenty of room with hiking socks and because the toes are on my right feet do not lay flat like my left foot. Your toes should not feel squished in any shoe. I got wide because Columbia are usually on the narrow side. My left foot is a medium width (almost narrow) and my right foot is medium width (almost wide). I also purchased Columbia hiking socks which feel amazing in these boots. Quarry is a very pretty grey color with black, light grey and blue accents. Such a pretty color combination. I will be wearing these to walk our dog on the trails in our neighborhood, which I do daily and are often swampy and even flooded in some areas. I was previously using my Brooks Ghost sneakers but too often coming home with mud, wet socks and saturated shoes. We mostly do trails but also mix in some sidewalk walking, so I needed a shoe that would be good on both. I will come back to update my review should they not work well. Super excited to wear them tomorrow on our morning walk through the woods. Update: 2/20/23 I wore these yesterday for a 3 mile walk/hike through trails and on sidewalks walking a dog. Update: 2/28/23 I have worn these again and had success, no knee or back pain afterward. Not my favorite shoe for walking our dog on sidewalks and not as comfortable as my Brooks but they are waterproof and are saving me on the trails right now. Update: 12/8/25 Loving these boots! I have been wearing them for miles while walking my dog on trails, through puddles, wet grass and snow. They are so warm and comfortable! I have been wearing them every day lately because we have been getting so much snow and everything is staying wet. No heel pain, no foot pain of any kind. Keeping my feet dry and the brooks ghost are being put away for the winter because these are the best for walking my dog through wet conditions. Considering to buy another pair and maybe not even wear the Brooks for walks anymore.

Amazing shoes!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shoe size review *by S***A on July 22, 2024* I was initially pretty nervous ordering these since there were many reviews about shoe size. These are my first pair of hiking boots and thought they were a pretty great price which is what drew me to them. I’m one of the unfortunate people that depending on the shoe brand and shoe itself depends on my shoe size. It can be anywhere from size 5-6.5 and sometimes even 7 in some cases. I would say I probably purchase more in the 6-6.5 range. That said, I was originally going to purchase these in 7 since I assumed I should not only take into account the shoe size they suggest but also socks and possible foot swelling while hiking. I know my size in EU and it’s always been on the dot as far being correct. I ended up then purchasing these in the EU size, which is 36 or 5 in US. When I received them, I put on the socks I plan on wearing while hiking and slipped them on. I first just wore them while sitting on the couch. They felt tight and my feet felt cramped and painful. I thought it was just because they were a new pair of shoes. For reference, socks I plan on wearing are similar to those hanes white socks that go above the ankle. I took them off for a bit after that and made them a little looser and put them back on to walk my dog on our running trail in my apartment complex. I felt my big toes were digging into the top of the shoe. They were uncomfortable and my feet still felt cramped. My smaller toes were going numb towards the end of the walk, which lasted around 15 mins. I ended up returning the size 5 or EU 36 . I reordered them a half size bigger, so 5.5 or 36.5. I feel this is more comfortable. My toes don’t feel like they’re digging into the top of the shoe. And I can walk around in them. They’re a little uncomfortable, but this feels more like uncomfortable since they’re brand new shoes versus how I felt earlier. Grip on the bottom of the shoe feels solid while walking on dirt/forest floor and over tree roots. The shoe color is true to picture example they’ve given. They seem light weight and the back of the shoe where the ankle is doesn’t feel uncomfortable. My suggestion would be to purchase 1/2 size or even 1 size up from your shoe size to take into account socks and everything. I don’t have any other hiking shoe to compare these too. Would I purchase these again? As of right now, I absolutely would. Next time I plan on purchasing size 6 or EU 37 though. ## Frequently Bought Together - Columbia Women's Discontinued Newton Ridge Plus - Columbia Women's Discontinued Newton Ridge Plus Waterproof Amped --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/685913021-columbia-womens-newton-ridge-plus-waterproof-hiking-boot-legacy](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/685913021-columbia-womens-newton-ridge-plus-waterproof-hiking-boot-legacy) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-28*
