Product Information
Full details
The Columbia Newton Ridge Plus is a versatile, classic-style hiking boot designed for adult hikers who need a reliable transition from urban pavements to rugged trails. Its core strength lies in the combination of a breathable yet waterproof construction and a highly cushioned midsole, offering long-lasting comfort for all-day wear. While it excels in comfort and protection, users should be aware that the hardware closure system requires a bit more time to secure compared to slip-on or speed-lacing alternatives.

FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature Omni-Tech seam-sealed construction, which is designed to keep water out while allowing moisture vapor to escape.
Can I wear these for casual daily wear?
Absolutely. Their classic aesthetic and non-marking soles make them perfect for casual, everyday use in addition to light hiking.
Does the boot run true to size?
The Newton Ridge Plus generally fits true to size, but we recommend trying them on with the socks you plan to hike in for the most accurate fit.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for deeper stains. Avoid machine washing.
Are they suitable for snow?
While they provide great traction and water protection, they are designed as hiking boots rather than insulated winter boots for deep snow.
Troubleshooting
Laces constantly come undone
Ensure you are using a double knot and that you are threading the laces through the top hooks securely to prevent slack from building up.
Waterproofing seems less effective over time
Dirt can clog the pores of the breathable fabric. Clean the exterior thoroughly to restore the performance of the waterproof membrane.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure you are wearing the type of hiking socks you intend to use on the trail before testing the size. When lacing up, pull the tongue centered before tightening the hooks to ensure even pressure across the bridge of your foot. For care, wipe away excess dirt with a soft brush after each outing. If the boots become submerged or heavily muddied, clean them with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, as intense heat can cause the leather to crack or the adhesives to weaken.
