Quick Summary
The Columbia Men’s Newton Nimble Leather is a low rise trekking and hiking shoe in Tundra/Black, size 11 Regular. It combines a leather upper with Omni-Tech waterproof breathable construction, plus Omni-Grip non-marking traction rubber for footing on varied ground.
The shoe also uses an Omni-Max system with a Techlite midsole, a specially designed heel and midfoot, deflection domes in the forefoot and heel, and flex grooves in the forefoot. These features are presented as part of the shoe’s construction and support, so it is worth checking that the fit, style and intended use match what you need.

What to Compare Before Buying
- Fit: This is size 11 Regular, so the main check is whether that size and width suit your foot.
- Upper and weather protection: The shoe has a waterproof leather upper and Omni-Tech waterproof breathable construction. Compare that with how much weather protection you want in a walking shoe.
- Outsole and ground contact: Omni-Grip non-marking traction rubber is fitted. Check whether that type of sole suits the surfaces you expect to walk on.
- Low rise format: Low rise shoes sit lower than boot-style footwear, so compare the cut with the ankle coverage you prefer.
When to Consider a Different Option
Choose another style if you need a different size, a different width, or more ankle coverage than a low rise shoe provides. A different option is also worth considering if you do not want a leather upper or if waterproof breathable construction is not a priority for your footwear.
Before You Decide
Confirm the size 11 Regular fit, the Tundra/Black colourway and the low rise shoe format before choosing an offer. Check that the waterproof leather upper and Omni-Tech construction match the conditions you plan to walk in.
