Wow - what a difference between these and my cheap older hiking boots which always hurt me. I took a 2 hour walk in these boots without breaking them in and the last thing I had to worry about was my feet hurting. These are so comfortable and being lightweight they are great for long treks or even for wearing everyday. They are waterproof and have a great traction sole and the styling won't make you look like a lumberjack.
I know boots are expensive these days - resist the temptation to buy something inferior and get the best fitting pair of boots you can afford. These should last a long enjoyable time.

The boots are great, I have already walked many miles in them. They are comfortable, waterproof, and have great traction. I would suggest them to any women that is looking for a nice hiking boot.

I have already had these boots through deep snow, mud, water, you name it. Never did my feet get wet. But they also don't get sweaty or rub anywhere they shouldn't. They also give great traction in poor weather.

I have big feet (11W), and I can honestly say that finding shoes, let alone shoes for a specific purpose like hiking, is extremely difficult. I was thrilled to finally receive these beauties and try them on...and miracle of miracles...they fit! And they do not just "fit", either. These boots are the most comfortable shoes I have worn in a long long time, sneakers and sandals included. The boots have kept my feet dry and warm in rain and three feet of snow, as well as blister-free on long hikes. Will definitely be ordering extra pairs of these spectacular hiking boots!

I have had an ankle rebuilt twice and am very fearful of falling. These give me stability yet are comfortable. Great to be able to walk my dogs without fearing an ankle injury.

First, if you plan to wear these boots for significant distances, do not buy them online; they may not fit as you expect. My wife tried 3 different pairs in the same size in a store; the backs of the right shoes protruded differently in them. She ended up getting the only pair where the back felt fine.

She wore them in town for a few miles, a mile or so at a time; this was fine. On the first backpacking trip (with a moderate pack), the right boot started to create a blister on the back of her foot in the first couple of miles. It ripped off standard Band-Aids within a mile; fortunately, a pair of Sport Band-Aids would hold up for a day (12 miles or so) at a time. The terrain was hilly, but not terrible. The blister part went better on four long-day hikes (15-25 miles), in fairly fairly terrain with rocky footing, but a couple of her toes went black after the last of them (losing the toenails several days later) because of the pressure from the boots.

The boots are waterproof, at least to begin with, and are ok to wear in town, for brief periods of time. I have a similar pair of men's; see my review there. They are of course made in China, btw.

Totally comfortable boot...ready to wear immediately, no need to break in. Wide is indeed wide too!

I bought my 1st pair a while ago...talking 2 years or so...and I put a lot of miles on my hiking boots. These once are great. From day one on I never had a hot-spot or blister. They are great when you cross rivers, etc. keep your feet nice and dry without the stiffness of some of the other waterproof boots. The grip on the soul is great too.

Have had these for a couple months now. They are perfectly rounded at the toe and ball of the foot so nothing gets squished, and overall quite comfortable. Great in rainy weather, muddy areas, etc. Waterproof on the foot, though I haven't gotten them wet near the laces so I don't know how that works.
Could use more padding around the top of the boot where it hits the ankle/lower leg. I ended up wrapping an extra sock around my ankle before putting it in the boot for extra padding (this works fine, but pull your normal sock over the extra sock or it falls out).
Probably going to buy a second pair.
Just one thing to note: if one pair doesn't work, it might be worth trying another one. I held up a couple next to each other in the store and all were just slightly different around the sole/heel. Maybe it's handmade?

Love these boots comfortable and versatile. Got them mainly for yard work but are great for hiking and in the snow. I'd highly recommend them.
