2.0 out of 5 stars Worth a try, November 16, 2009

For basic hiking boots these are definitely worth a try. I'm still breaking these in but for stability they're much better than my other higher priced, big name brand boots. There's not a ton of padding in these but with my mid weight wool socks they're just fine. They're very good for balance on rocks and roots along the trails as well as grippy. So far they've kept my feet dry as well although I haven't been able to give them a true solid test through a stream. I'm very happy with them and have been from when I took them out of the box. I did change the insole however. I needed a little more arch support than those which came with the boots offered.

I've now been using these boots for a while now and I love them all for one problem, I get awful blisters on both heals despite wearing band aids and padded moleskin. They may work well for someone with tougher heals that I.

Only comment: sizing is a little tricky. My shoe size is 6.0 and I had to return a previous purchase because it was too small.I had to get a 7.5 pair. Other that that, the are comfortable and with great ankle support and traction. I am a very satisfied customer.

4.0 out of 5 stars My search is over!, May 27, 2010

Lette "A careful shopper" (Philadelphia, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews

I have flat feet (with a narrow heel & wide toes) that like solid, firm support WITHOUT a hard, over-pronounced arch-shaped support digging into the sole of my flat foot. Flat, soft insoles make my feet and instep ache painfully after about an hour or so of walking/standing, while high arch supports chafe and dig. I tried almost a dozen other higher and mid-priced hiking shoes, and then came across these... the moment I put them on, my feet knew! Firm support, with comfortable, highly supportive contours in the shape of the outsole and insole... comfort and support all the way!! Wore them through late Fall, and Winter 2009-2010-- my feet were warm, dry, supported, and attractive through trail hikes and dress-down days at the office! On the market for another pair so when the ones I have wear out (won't be before three to five years of heavy use are up-- they're durable in construction overall, though the outer layer of leather on the toe of one has a nick in it), I won't have to go on another frustrating hunt for solid, supportive, warm, comfortable, dry rugged shoes again!! DEFINITELY recommend for someone with similar foot concerns!!
