Not for harsh hikes, get too hot, and don't protect your foot against cholla!!!
Pros:
Boot fit perfectly. I'm an 8.5, ordered an 8.5, and took them to work the next day with no blisters. They are waterproof. Good grip on them.
Cons:
However, I read a lot of reviews before purchasing these boots and trusted them but my boots did not meet my expectations. I love and trust Colombia, but these boots get extremely hot with a little sunlight. Your feet feel as if they are burning and I often have to put water on them to cool them down. I'm a field biologist working in San Clemente Island and we hike where there's lots of cholla and prickly pears. The cholla went right through my boots! Very painful. The worst part is that this is the only pair of boots I have with me on the island so I have to suffer with them until I get off.
