fragile materials

The soft leather-like material around the toe cap blew open within a week of use (during my first time using these in scree field) allowing water to seep in when crossing snow higher up. Durability of materials is not up to par with cheaper mountaineering boots.

I just got these and went Christmas tree hunting with them. Simply amazing! I was in wet snow anywhere from 6” to 18” of wet snow in sagebrush and fallen timber and the shoes felt great. They are extremely easy to get in because the laces slide easy on the eyelets. They tighten up very evenly the full length of the boot. They feel very light and agile. I’m very excited for these boots. They seem light enough I could see wearing these for 8 months out of the year. I’m 6’2” and typically wear a 12 but I had to size down to a 11.5

Light weight and comfy.

Solid support on the sole, no break in period as with all the other Danners (Quarry/Rainforest/mountain 600) I have owned. Unexpected treat is the lowest lace hooks to the D rings are "lace holding", after tugging on the laces tight, if you pull the lace fully into the hook the plastic insert holds the laces in place. You can let go of the laces and they will not loosen, never had that before. I was worried that the insulation would keep my feet hot but they are fine in 60 degrees. I was thinking of taking up light hiking and wanted to try these. They are comfy for standing in on concrete for hours, just a little stiff in the sole but I assume you need that for the intended use in Winter.

Not stiff enough for ice climbing/ front pointing. Not very warm/ insulated. Otherwise fine lightweight boot.
