These shoes were bought for the very reason they were advertised - to go hiking. They are very comfortable and offer good grip. I have taken them to some really rugged places and they are holding up just fine. I wore them on rugged and sharp limestone rocks and i have not noticed any scratches that were common with my previous hiking shoes (maybe i was just a little more careful). Early morning walking in wet grass was better than i expected as it resisted the water for long time before i started feeling my toes getting wet (you might ask how long is a 'long time'? honestly i don't remember but it was note worthy that they resisted water). By the end of the day it was more or less dry. This is because it is so well ventilated.
My only disappointment is with the laces. Somewhere along the way, thorns got a hold of the lace and pulled on some of the individual fibres. As a result the lace got drawn up - shrunk at points by the snagged strands. it was impossible to tug on the lace to get the strands back into place so i had to cut them off. it did not compromise the entire lace though. A more durable lace could have been used. Ohh 1 more thing, the laces come loose very easily. No matter how tight i draw the laces they come loose, sometimes a few times in one day. That can be frustrating. I have devised a double knot that seems to be working for now. I would recommend this shoes to anyone who goes hiking ... its very comfy.

Shoes feel great. They are comfortable and breathe well. This was the second time I have bought Columbia hiking shoes. Would recommend shoes for anyone.
