5.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable and durable, September 11, 2011

There are some times when you need a high-top hiking shoe built out of solid leather ... when you're going to the Himalayas, I suppose ... or hiking in winter through snow and ice, when the risk of an ankle twist is so much higher. But for all other times, this has been my companion (and indeed I'm using my second pair now). They are quite durable, give stable side-to-side support so there's no wobbling, and they are just so comfortable!

I also find that I run across wet or muddy spots often enough, that it is worth the extra cost to have the Gore-tex lining. I have stepped into streams with them, and taken my foot out completely dry. That assumes of course the water doesn't come up above your ankle, for then you'll get swamped. Also I have not walked for an extended period in water, because the only time I did so, I came out with dampness. For whatever reason, Gore-tex does not work as effectively when it's inside a shoe vs. lining a rain jacket ... and this isn't unique to Vasque, because I have high-top boots with Gore-tex inside and they also soak through after a half-hour of standing in water.

Sizing of this shoe was accurate for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best shoes I've ever owned, July 3, 2011

I've had these for about 2 months now. I've used them for:

1. Hiking through trails
2. Trail Running
3. Walking San Francisco
4. To the gym
5. Running on the beach
6. Crossed really shallow creeks
7. Walked rocky shores

And they still look barely worn. They're super comfortable, seem well ventilated and can take a beating without breaking a sweat. Also they grip like crazy, definitely inspires confidence in whatever I'm doing.

They're a little heavy which might be a turn-off for some but doesn't bother me. We'll see how they wear with age but I can already tell my next pair of activity shoes will be these.

I have tried several hiking shoes/boots from Nevados and Hi-Tec, but they disappointed me.
I'm glad that I've found this shoes because I consider this one the real hiking friendly: comfortable, nice style, water resist, and fit firmly.
