I have been using these shoes for some time now and I am very satisfied with this purchase. The biggest advantage is the comfort – the whole shoe, especially the sole, works excellently and provides good cushioning, which means I can walk for a long time without feeling tired or in pain. Additionally, the shoes are durable and resistant to moisture; they haven't let any water in, not even once.
Bergson Tubkal Mid STX Boots - Khaki
Durable trekking boots with an upper made of durable suede leather and abrasion-resistant fabric. Perfect for both off-road activities and everyday urban use.
Supra-Tex membrane, tongue integrated into the upper
The SUPRA-TEX waterproof membrane effectively wicks sweat to the outside, while protecting against the ingress of moisture from the environment. The tongue, which is integrated into the upper, provides protection against the ingress of water, mud, stones or other small debris into the footwear.
Ergonomic midsole, Vibram XS Trek sole
The boots use an ergonomically shaped EVA foam midsole, which provides comfort on longer hikes even in difficult, rocky terrain, and a high upper with a soft collar to protect the foot and ankle from injury.
Stable movement in the terrain is ensured by a cushioned Vibram XS Trek sole with a properly shaped, treaded tread that provides very good grip on various types of surfaces, regardless of weather conditions.
Toe protection, durable laces
Toe protection is provided by an extra layer of material and an over-lined section of abrasion-resistant rubber sole. Durable laces are woven through grommets for quick lacing. The boots feature an anti-microbial, ventilated insole with shock absorption system.

The EVA sole made of lightweight foam is characterized by its flexibility and good shock absorption properties. It reduces foot fatigue, especially when wearing shoes for long periods of time. It adjusts to the shape of the foot, providing support and comfort for the wearer.
Supra-Tex is a waterproof membrane with a microporous internal structure. Due to its thermoactive properties, it efficiently wicks moisture to the outside and allows you to maintain the right temperature inside, protecting you from both overheating and undercooling.
Vibram XS Trek is a type of outsole made of a rubber compound with high flexibility and abrasion resistance. It is most often used in trekking footwear, where it performs best during approaches and descents, providing grip and stability, as well as adequate traction on wet or varied surfaces.
Shock Absorb is a technology that enhances the ergonomics of footwear, used in the construction of the sole. By absorbing and dissipating the kinetic energy that acts on the body during each movement, it relieves stress on the joints by absorbing shocks, and has a positive effect on maintaining correct posture.

The shoes seem durable (although I've only been using them for a short while), and they're definitely very comfortable. They also have an attractive appearance. The only downside is the laces (or the way they're threaded) – unfortunately, after two weeks, they snapped.

Durable, well-made and comfortable shoes. The sole provides excellent grip both in the mountains and on pavements. The laces stabilise the foot well. They are very lightweight.

For now, I'm only giving 3 stars due to the confusion with the manufacturer – this was the main reason I chose the Columbia brand. It turned out the manufacturer is, of course, PRC. In reality, the shoes look much nicer than in the photos. They're light and comfortable. Time will tell how they perform in practice.
