Great shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these a few months ago for extra ankle support after injuring the left ankle. They are very comfortable, light and supportive. I didn’t feel a lot of cushion in them but I was able to do 5-6 miles a day with relative ease on uneven, varied surface terrain (muddy, roots and rocks, stone, asphalt). I’ve tried other brands but these are going to be my go to.

Waterproofing Issues

No, I don't recommend this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were waterproof for about 2 years. Keep in mind they probably only say action for a max of 80 days/ year. I have tried waterproofing them again with both wax and spray. Nothing worked. I expected a longer lifespan than 2 years. Traction is pretty good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Boot is waterproof. Mine felt inside a river and it’s so insulated that water didn’t want to come out either. The only downside is the suede, it dies stain easily but everything else delivers. It’s comfortable, lightweight, sturdy, good grip. I loved it.

So great I bought another pair

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My previous pair of Newton Ridge boots took me through the Black Forest and many points east and west. So comfortable and stylish (love the red laces) they became my go-to shoe even when I wasn't hiking. Eight years later the soles were the only worn out part. I was delighted to see the same pair still on the website. Even more jazzed when they arrived and I slipped into them. Same great fit!

Boots living up to their reputation

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking for some waterproof hiking boots that were well-rated by third party groups. These were at the top of several lists, so I decided to give them a try. They came in super fast, and I put them on for a quick trial. I didn't even take them off for the rest of the day! They fit right out of the box without any awkward breaking in. On my first lengthy outing, they were comfortable and felt like we had been hiking buddies for years. I haven't tried them out in super wet conditions, but a wet summer in my region will give me plenty of opportunity.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These boots have been great! I was a little worried they might rub the top of my foot but I have had them a couple of weeks now and no problem. Also I know color doesn’t matter in hiking boots but these are a really cute shade of brown. I would recommend these boots to anyone!

Good Comfortable Boots

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these for a trip to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Glacier National Parks, where I knew I would be going on some challenging hikes. These boots were perfect on sand, rock, and snow! They are waterproof (though I didn't submerge them completely in water), which also means your feet will feel hot in the boots, but I think that is the trade-off. I saw at least 5 other girls with the same boots! I got some compliments as well. I'm a size 6.5 - 7 and I got a 7, but I wish I tried the 6.5 to compare. 7 was comfortable, my toes were not cramped and I was able to wear thick socks. I have flexible ankles and twist them a lot while hiking, so the extra ankle support was nice. When I wanted more flexibility, I laced up to the second-to-last aglet.

Great right out of the box!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Solid boots right out of the box. I intended to break them in before a 15 mile hike but ended up only walking about 2 miles in them before that hike. The 15 mile hike had 3500 feet elevation climb in rocky trail. Needless to say my feet were fatigued at the end but only ended up with one small blister on a toe. ankle/heel felt fully supported and overall great traction on the bottom.

Hike boot

Not a bad beginner boot, but not a fan of the back being so short because it digs in the your upper heel while hiking up and down a mountain. The foot part of the boot was very comfortable. I got the wide option and glad I did. Overall comfortable walking on level ground just the low back is uncomfortable for mountain hiking.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LOVE these shoes!!! So cute and comfortable. Needed warm, waterproof shoes with traction for a trip to Iceland. Straight out of the box these boots were comfy - no break in time necessary. Running around, prepping for trip, they kept my feet warm and dry in negative temps and snow. Standing for 4+ hours at a time, no problem. These were the only shoes I took on my 7-day trip: walking, hiking, ice, snow, rain, airports, shopping on cobblestone streets - you name it, I did it and my feet felt great. Fortunately I did not experience standing in deep snow or excessive rain, so I can't speak to how waterproof they are in extreme climates - but the limited rain and snow I encountered my feet stayed dry. Traction was good on snow and ice, I didn't slip or slide once. Use the website measurements to choose your size - it was spot on. These boots look amazing on - they do not make your feet look big and the cream color with the pink laces...cute, cute, cute!!! Bought them to wear on my trip, will happily be wearing them all the time. Don't hesitate to purchase these boots, you will not be disappointed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are cute and perfect for hiking. The soles have lugs for traction and the suede upper seems durable. They are very comfortable but I found them to be a half a size too short. I am always an 8.5 and in these, my toes were a bit smushed. Definitely size up, especially if you want to wear thick socks.
