Overall Feedback:
73% positive
79% liked the ankle support
The ankle support is good.
The ankle support was fantastic while hiking over plenty of rocks. The comfort factor was great after the boots were totally broken in.
The boots have provided great ankle support and helped prevent additional sprains.
70% praised the breathability
I found the shoes to be breathable, comfortable, and pleasantly surprised by their lightness.
The boots are comfortable and breathable even with thick socks. Order true size for a tight secure fit.
The boots I have are lightweight, water tight, breathable, and look expensive.
82% found them comfortable
These shoes are the most comfortable I have worn in ages.
At first, the boots felt a bit big, but with thick socks on, they were comfortable and there was no chafing or pinching.
The boots have helped with my Plantar Fasciitis and sore feet from riding. They are comfortable, soft, and supportive.
These boots are so comfortable that I can't wear any other shoes. However, they don't look great with a dress.
81% praised the durability
I wore the boots to a summer camp where I had to walk through wet grass, muddy slippery rocky trails, heavy rain, dirt/dust, climbing in & out of sinkholes of limestone rock, getting splashed on by kids in the pool, etc. The boots were durable enough to withstand all the rough conditions.
I put the boots through a tough test by wearing them for 5 weeks while camping in Hawaii and exposing them to various conditions like lava rocks, mud, dirt, pouring rain, and giant thorns.
74% were impressed with the lacing system
The lacing system of the boot keeps the laces tied tightly and prevents them from slipping due to the rounded shape and padding of the boot.
80% appreciated the excellent traction
The traction of my boots saved me from skidding down a cliff or two.
The boots provide good traction and some ankle support.
The boots provide good ankle support, traction, and protection from chilly weather and water.
86% liked the waterproofing
During several water crossings on the trip, my boots held up for brief periods of water exposure.
I spent two weeks hiking through the Faroe Islands/Iceland with these boots and my feet only got wet once.
78% appreciated the lightweight design
After walking 17 miles a day, my feet felt no discomfort wearing these boots. They are the perfect weight.
