Columbia Drainmaker XTR Hiking Shoe - Women's

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fit was great. The toe box was generous. I did not feel like the support and sturdiness of the sole was good enough for me. It’ personal for me but the shoe could be wonderful for others.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wore these on a 2 day kayaking and hiking trip on moderate trails with a lot of shallow water crossings. The shoes were so comfortable, dried overnight (Sedona) and had good hiking traction.

comfortable, well made, tread not wearing down thus far

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this shoe for years. The shoe actually lasts several years but I like to switch them out when doing Water Aerobics. They are great if you have feet trouble and I highly recommend them. I am noticing they are no longer in stock and I am seriously hoping they are not going to get rid of this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these shoes! I had the original Drainmakers and these are my second pair. They really make packing for adventures easy because I don’t have to think about hiking and water shoes as two separate things. They’re comfortable and have great traction! I recommend these to everybody.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Went on a 6 day rafting trip with these shoes. Pros: They were very comfortable and dried out over night. I hiked in sandy rocky terrain in these and they had good traction. Cons: Sand got behind heel on last hike and caused blisters. (We hiked on land and water.) Got home after trip and the black toe protector is coming off shoe and toe is showing fraying. I admit I was tough on these shoes, but falling apart after 6 days is disappointing.

Bought for my niece to replace the same par which had worn out. Initially they felt rather uncomfortable comparing to the old ones, but lately she told me that the new once are as well excellent and her feet are comfy and cool in the hot sunny walks.

The shoes seemed like they would be a good purchase for walking on the beach. They seemed to fit well when I tried them on but unfortunately the seam in the heel area gave me blisters the 2nd time I wore them.
