Who should buy the Columbia Firecamp Boot
Multi-sport footwear, the Firecamp Boot underscores versatility both on rugged trails and concrete pavements. This hiker must be part of your collection, especially if:
- You're an adventurer who likes hiking in northern states such as Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana.

- You're looking for a dapper-yet-inexpensive boot that can withstand wetness from slushy trails.
Who should not buy it
