Review on Columbia Unisex-Child YOUTH NEWTON RIDGE SUEDE: Durable and Stylish Outdoor Footwear by Mike Hernandez

I love these walking shoes! We walk 6 miles in and out of our camp once a week and since my son bought these shoes my son can walk all the way by himself. This is the first pair of shoes that don't hurt my feet after the first kilometer. They do not slip on stone and wood. They are not waterproof at all. Even walking on grass with dew will get your toes wet. I apply mink oil on them and it works great. They are true to size which means they are difficult to put on but once on they are comfortable and don't slide down. That's great because no friction means no blisters. I'll buy a few more when he grows these.
