5.0 out of 5 stars My son loves these boots!
I bought these boots for my son who is a vegan. He has to walk to classes at campus and I thought these would be perfect in the snow. They were hard to find in the size I was looking for, but thanks to the internet, I was able to finally locate them. They are high quality, attractive, waterproof, and he says - very comfortable. Great job Garmont!

3.0 out of 5 stars Only game in town . . .
My girlfriend and I just backpacked about 400 miles on the AT. We're both vegans so, not buying leather products, all signs pointed to this boot, the only entirely synthetic hiking boot on the market...

It broke in quickly and comfortably, which was nice, however the insoles weren't supportive enough; an additional cheap insole made long days a better...

My girlfriend and I just backpacked about 400 miles on the AT. We're both vegans so, not buying leather products, all signs pointed to this boot, the only entirely synthetic hiking boot on the market...

It broke in quickly and comfortably, which was nice, however the insoles weren't supportive enough; an additional cheap insole made long days a better experience.

While I recognize that any boot stays wet when wet, the Gor-tex tag didn't live up to its name. They soaked through quickly when going through dewy grasses or just after a rain, not to mention DURING a storm.

My last gripe seems to be a manufacturer's error: both of my toes are de-laminating after only 5 weeks use.

In regular, weekend hiking conditions I recommend this boot. It will proficiently do anything you may want. For aggressive, extended use, it wasn't worth the cost.

5.0 out of 5 stars veganly wonderful, January 9, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
It was important for me to find a pair of hiking boots that were Vegan and at the same time be lite ,durable and well constructed.These boots fit the bill and then some.I am an advid hiker and took them out for a 15 mile hike right away and they were great.They didn't need any breaking in and felt great the whole hike.

4.0 out of 5 stars Go Vegan with your shoes, November 17, 2009
This review is from: Garmont Men's Kiowa Vegan GTX Hiking Boot (Apparel)
As a vegetarian for over 8 years now I thought it was important to support that in my apparel as well. I am not a pro hiker. I enjoy small hikes in challenging terrain. I have not given these babies a full hike yet. I did walk through a local creek and found the water proofing to my liking. For me the boot are very comfortable and I have been wearing them as everyday shoes. The other reviewer seems to have put them through a little more of a work out. These are Vegan boots nuff said. The more products like this sell the more we will see them on the market place. Peace
