By viajero from washington d.c. on 07/16/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Water Resistant Best Uses: Cold weather, Day hikes, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sizing: Feels half size too small Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I wore these boots on my 500 mile walk across Northern Spain on the Camino de Santiago. They were comfortable and I only got one blister (on a day that I walked about 24 miles). The boots repelled water well but after some hours in rain/snow/puddles there were times that my feet got damp. I wore these boots probably 500 miles in training for my walk and have probably worn them about 200 miles since my walk and the soles are wearing down. I'm probably ready for a new pair. I wore them with green superfeet insoles and smartwool adrenaline hiking socks. For me these boots were perfect. As to the sizing...my shoe size generally fluctuates between an 8 1/2 and 9 and I wore these in a 9 so you may need to go up a half size. After a month of 18 mile days on varied surfaces, my feet remained comfortable in these boots.
Photo doesn't do it justice By Jack Rabbit from Los Angeles on 12/13/2007 Pros: Comfortable, Non-slip sole, Stable, Water Resistant Best Uses: Cold weather, Day hikes, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels half size too small Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nice looking, comfortable, sturdy boot. The fit is snug, I had to return it for a half size larger. Can't vouch for the waterproof gore-tex as it has yet to be worn in the rain or to go through puddles.
