Based on past experiences with Columbia, I won't trust their waterproof
The way they make them waterproof is there's literally a waterproof plastic layer inside. But as you walk around with time that plastic layer will break/rip and byebye waterproofing.

I bought these 4 years ago when they were called "PEAKFREAK™ VENTURE MID".
They are not bad for $48.
Didn't say the product wasn't great. Just "waterproof" is not a real thing nor does GORE-TEX make that claim.

Again, if people want to split hairs...it goes both ways.

Side note: is there a gif of a point flying over someone's head?

Do you use it? Got mine in 2021 in a black Friday sale (for $50). I don't believe will survive past this winter.

My wife and I had a very similar pairs we wore in Iceland at the tail end of last year's winter. Nice and warm, and waterproof. We were doing day hikes, glacier excursions, and tours out of a van. Not extreme use but far more than just walking around town.

Last I checked fish tanks and submarines weren't made of Goretex yet they claim to be waterproof. The lack of a "®" next to a word doesn't normally define the characteristics of the material's resistance to matter in a particular state.

BTW, GORE-TEX isn't waterproof either Wink

Water resistant*. You can't split hairs on one side then not do it everywhere.

Don't believe me, ask GORE-TEX

https://www.gore-tex.com/
"That's why all GORE‑TEX Products provide totally windproof, breathable, and water-resistant to durably waterproof protection."

I've been using gore-tex for 30+ years in boots and jackets, along with my snow wear..no leaks. http://www.winfieldsoutdoors.co.u...-gore-tex/

I own this. My review:
- Very good hiking boots that's super comfortable to wear. It got me through a big trekking trip at Zion, Bryce (snow covered), and Grand Canyon
- Yes, it's waterproof because the good leather used, I had it in heavy rain, super wet grass and snow, no water inside. (I suggest heavy, warm wool socks)
- Columbia.com is a terrible ecommerce with super poor customer service. First time 15% coupon doesn't work. You can not cancel or change order once placed. They also sent a shoe 1 size smaller than ordered, I can not return at local Columbia outlet (some stupid reason that I paid with paypal), then when initiated a return, they want to charge $6 to ship it back.

SO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW YOUR SIZE as you only get 1 chance to get it right or suffer terrible headache to deal with customer service. The customer service is even worse than Adidas at eBay.
