5.0 out of 5 stars Hiking the AT? This is the shoe for you., April 13, 2009

Lightweight. Durable. Dries faster than anything else out there. Great toecap to prevent bumps and wear and tear. Lacing system is fast (not to mention kevlar) Walked over 800 miles with 35 lbs on my back before I had to turn em' in. I'm also 6'4" and 230 lbs. You do the math. Great shoes. Ignore the Goretex ones. Goretex is useless in wet environments where you have no cover.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great shoe for hiking or short-med distance runs, May 26, 2009

By 

Chris G - See all my reviews

I bought these as somewhat of a hybrid (light) hiking shoe and trail runner. I've gone on some pretty intense, muddy, slippery hikes in these and they stood the test. The sole is pretty hard and has great traction. I was a bit worried about ankle support but the heel is cupped in a way that keeps your ankle from rolling (within reason). So it stood the text as a hiking shoe. I have also done some short runs in them. They're very light for a trail runner which is great. But they're not exactly a substitute for true running shoes. I probably wouldn't recommend them for anything over 3-4 miles on flat ground. All in all, they do what I wanted them to do and I'd buy them again for sure.

I use to be a boot only guy but since I bought these shoes I havent put on my hiking boots. The insoles are great and comfortable yet supportive. You dont feel the rocks or rough terrain. The thread is aggresive enough for mud and provide great grip in slippery conditions. The laces are great and easy to adjust. I have used these in all different types of terrain like sand, soft dirt, mud, grass, heavy weeds, rocks, gravel, and light snow. My friend did the John Muir trail 220 miles in a week with these shoes. Highly Recommend to everyone!
