including the new "walking sneaker" SH/FT™ OutDry™ Mid
Did you know? Columbia's roots are in Germany, more precisely in Augsburg, Bavaria.
In 1938 a German immigrant family founded one of the largest outdoor companies in the world (at that time still called Columbia Hat Company) in Portland, Oregon. Gertrude (Gert), 14 years old at the time of the emigration, was the boss of the company with about 8,000 employees worldwide until her death at the end of 2019. Even at the age of 95, she still visited her office regularly.
Even today the Columbia Sportswear Company is still family-run. Gert's son Tim Boyle is now its president.
Over the past decades, Columbia has specialized in innovative and technical outdoor clothing, footwear, equipment and accessories.
Whether it's functional shirts with sun protection, waterproof rain jackets, warmly insulated synthetic fiber & down jackets, or high-grip hiking boots - the product line ranges from head to toe and includes classic outdoor products as well as fashionable clothing and versatile shoes.
For example, the versatile stretch-knit hiker SH/FT™, which is the centerpiece of this year's summer collection called ”Day Hike.“ The SH/FT™ pushes boundaries and combines a modern, urban look with all the functionality of a versatile hiking shoe. Whether at festivals, concerts, city trips, walks or summit tours, the SH/FT™ is the ideal companion for any purpose.
The winner has the free choice from the entire Columbia summer range and can dress from head to toe.
This includes the following products:
