FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the waterproof membrane and the structural integrity of the suede; please clean by hand using a damp cloth.
Do I need to spray these with a waterproofing treatment?
While they feature integrated waterproof fabric, applying a suede-safe water repellent after significant cleaning can help maintain the exterior finish.
Are they suitable for wide feet?
The standard Crestwood is designed for a medium fit; if you have wide feet, look for specific 'Wide' labeled variants within the Crestwood series.
Can these be used for winter hiking?
They provide excellent traction for light trail conditions, but they are not insulated, so they may not be suitable for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
How do I determine if the size is correct?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe while wearing your hiking socks.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
Check the outsole for caked-on mud or debris and clean thoroughly with a stiff brush.
Interior feels damp after a short walk
Ensure the shoe laces are properly tightened to prevent water entry from the top, and verify the waterproof membrane has not been punctured by sharp debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Columbia Crestwood shoes maintain their integrity, follow these care guidelines: Always remove excess mud with a soft brush after your hike to prevent dirt from settling into the suede pores. If the shoes become soaked, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the waterproofing membrane. For long-term storage, keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent mold growth on the suede. If you use custom orthotics, the factory-installed insoles are removable to accommodate your preferred inserts for a personalized fit.
