Columbia Men's NEWTON RIDGE PLUS MOC WATERPROOF Uniform Dress Shoe

I was looking for a pair of heavy weight slip on's to wear around for WI/MN winters, so if I have to run an errand I'm not needing to lace up boots and fighting for bench space with the kids, etc. I had already ordered a pair of suede looking Skechers that were on the way when I came across these for a great price. Since I was unsure how the fit was going to be for the Skechers, and these were so cheap, I figured I'd order them as well and return whatever doesn't fit. I got the Skechers first. Normally I run size 10, and have a couple of pairs of Skechers boots and sneakers in 10, but the slip on was a bit loose so I ended up returning it. Since the 9.5 was the same price, I exchanged it.For this Columbia, I have some Columbia winter boots that are size 11 and fit ok, so I ordered these in size 10.5. Ordering a half size up on these was just right. When I received them they were a bit tough to slip on, but after a few uses have gotten used to it. They have good traction to wear out on packed snow or ice, they're waterproof for when it's slushy. They have kept my feet warm enough driving in the car during the winter and running in and out of stores. They serve my purpose perfectly. They look like they're just made of rubber, so they are not the fanciest shoes. However, I would say if you're looking for something similar, and you find them for under $30 or $40, they're definitely worth it, even a steal if you get them under 30. Just be aware you may want to consider ordering a half size up if you're not familiar with Columbia's fit for you. It is nice that if they come from Amazon, shoes are free returns too.

Pretty they are not :), but they fit well -in Amazon-suggested 1/2 size larger than some other brands. First time use is a tight fit but they quickly stretch out. The color is...unmentionable, unless you are fond of NATO military equipment, but they are comfortable, sturdy, waterproof w/ excellent grip on muddy terrain. I'm a fan of the better looking Merrell's jungle mocs with superior footbed, which I buy a half size smaller and at a discount rate of $ 60.- or so, but they wanted over $100.- for the water proof ones, so I chose these instead. In my experience Columbia products are often not the very best quality, but a good value. We'll see how they hold up.

Comfy and fits nice. Bad elastic on side only wore a short time and elastic began to fail! After 2 months of semi normal wear I would expect more from a Columbia shoe!

These are a little small. Nothing I didn't expect when I ordered them. I wear a size 9 1/2 in most shoes. Even my other Columbia shoes are 9 or 9 1/2. So I ordered a 9 1/2, despite reviews suggesting they run a little small. Getting them on was a challenge at first, but they fit my foot fine once they're on. These are quite comfortable and have a soft rubber sole that provides great traction...though you do tend to pick up a lot of muck. Oh well. They keep water out, so far. We'll see how they hold up with use. My advice is order a half size larger than you normally wear. For me, a size 10 would be better. But these will do.

Very narrow...impossible to get shoes on because of this.

light-weight okay quality, returned as too large

I love these shoes. I wear them every day for work, out in the yard, hiking, fishing, you name it. They felt a little snug when I first put them on, but after a day or 2 they stretched a little and fit perfectly. They are comfortable. I wear size 13. They got a little scuffed up but still look nice. Sometimes they get very warm when I walk around, but that's common with waterproof shoes. I like them so much I am ordering another pair.

Looks good quality.Strong even ligth.Just a bit small for the size.First time I tried to put them on, I thougth I would not be able to get my foot inside. But following days It got easier. Hopefully they 'll be fine. We'll see.....
