Everything I have had from Keen for fishing has been great.

Not mine, but do have an old pair that is, but the bottom was warm, and had to get rid of them. Check model properties and reviews before buying

Same here, the columbias are light but no real support.

Bought a pair of those HUK ankle boots for $45 a few months ago. Work for me.

Which Columbias are you wearing?

My drainmakers are comfortable to me, and I have arthritis. They are older though so I’m not sure how the new ones are.
