I bought this pair of shoes based on the look, price, & name. I had heard good things about Columbia.  The price was fairly good.  I am very happy with the shoes. They are very comfortable! No long days working the shoe in - good the first day.  The look is nice - good to where almost anywhere.

The con would be the sole. They have a rugged sole that looks & feels good at first.  But they get a bit slippery on wet floors. Walking into a store on a rainy day you find the tile floors slippery. This is not just at one store. It has happened to me a number of places. Never had this on my old shoes.

It is a shame Amazon did away with the price guarantee. The day after I bought these the price was cut. They would not refund the difference. I was told I had to reorder them & return the pair I was getting. For $8 is was not worth it.  Love Amazon but this made me pause about their policies.
