Customer Review: Runs absurdly small…
This shoe is literally 1″ smaller than my other shoes. How they could have said it was an 8 1/2 is beyond me.

And now that I realize that it is way too small relative to other shoes, the size up is sold out. Great.

Customer Review: Not bad, but runs small
I have a number of Columia hiking boots and shoes and have found them to be great active shoes. These are a little disappointing. Firstly they run small and not true to size. I wear a 12 and had to go to a 13 since they don’t offer 12.5. So order a 1/2 size larger. I even compared it with other Columbia shoes I own and I found the shoe to be smaller than others of the same size.

The quality of this low rise shoe is a departure from the same mid height model: it uses simple lace eye holes rather than metal hooks and syling that is less sporty than the comparable mid height model hiking boot. Also the tongue closure is unusually wide when laced; I think this may be because this shoe was designed for the heavy duty metal lace hooks that come on the mid height but instead it got simple lace holes without the hooks so it doesn’t close as well.

So it is a not quite as recommendable as other Columbia shoes I’ve owned. buy from here…
