Comments about Asolo Power Matic 200 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Women's:
I needed a durable pair of boots for my trek to Nepal. I was looking for something that would be easy to break in. I found it in these boots. I was comfortable on the first hike & they were broken in withing a few. I've used them backpacking, day hiking & trekking. They've held up well & continue to be comfortable.

These boots fit like a glove. My husband has the same style and he bought two pairs. We both have hard to fit feet. They will require a little breaking in of course, but for the heavy duty support, these are so easy compared to other boots I've worn. Since there are no seams, nothing binds on the inside. My husband wears his every day and his podiatrist said they were the best shoe he could possibly wear for support and overall good foot health.

Comments about Asolo Power Matic 200 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Women's:
The only complaint i have is that these boots make my feet very very warm, and they hold moisture like there is no tomorrow but other then that I would pick these boots over any in my closet. Very easy to tie up quick in an airport as well.

Comments about Asolo Power Matic 200 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Women's:
I am on my 2nd pair in three years. I typically don't write reviews but I noticed comments in other reviews which maybe a little misleading.
PROs First, I have found these boots to be excellent heavy load hiking boot. Top of the line traction through water and on rocks. The toe area does take a beating; they have worn look as compared to a boot with a tougher guard in the front. They are leather and very water proof. Great fit for my narrow feet. Excellent ankle support and protection, not the bulky ankle padding you find in other boots. I use superfeet green inserts to add to the support. I typically do 3-4 day tracks with 55lbs+ pack 10-15 miles a day without any problems. The boot has a heel ready for my Hybrid crampon...this was the final selling point on my first pair.
Now, here is where I differ with other reviews. They get warm because they are water proof--it's a trade off. They are complete leather. if you are doing a light day hike of 10+miles with little or no river/snow encounters this boot maybe over kill.
CON: I love the traction and thought put into "defatigue-reducing technology" but I wish they could have shaved 5 oz off the weight. I believe they top the scale in weight for the type/class of boot they were design for. I don't have a love fest going with the black color--'dark graphite' but i can live with it because these boots fit and function perfectly.
Asolo Matic 200 is a very well made boot worth the price tag.

Comments about Asolo Power Matic 200 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Women's:
I love these boots. I have a low profile foot, so, with a super feet insert, these boots fit me great! I wore them straight out of the box on a 20 mile through-hike in the Enchantments. No blisters. I have since taken them up the Muir snowfield and through streams. They stay dry and warm.
My only issue is that the exterior toe portion of this boot wears easy. It only took a mile on the trail to make my boots look like they had seen plenty of trail time.

Comments about Asolo Power Matic 200 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Women's:
I had to try a few methods since my very first experience I got out of these boots ended up in blisters. It helped tremendously to use a liner sock with a lightweight hiking sock. And knowing where my hotspot was, I just put a blister bandage over it (for extra precaution). I also put conditioner/lotion on it to 'soften' and clean the leather. There are also some boot tying methods you can learn to secure your ankle in place. For me (and maybe for others) one foots is SLIGHTLY larger than the other hence all the preventative methods.
The boot worked well carrying 30+ pounds on my back through dusty, rocky terrain. It did get completely soaked (crossing a river), we just removed the insoles and let it dry for about 30 minutes and it was good to go for the rest of our short trek.
Recommend these boots as a nice investment for your long treks.

These boots are HEAVY. Too heavy for me, I brought them back.
Aside from that, they are great. Durable, comfortable, great traction, attractive, and will last forever.
I'm usually a size 8, but was a 7 in this boot.

Comments about Asolo Power Matic 200 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots - Women's:
I do a lot of high Sierra backpacking, including tricky class 3 and 4 scrambles, and these boots have kept me from twisting an ankle at least twice! Great traction, great with a heavy pack, and I had no leakage when hiking in thick mud and snow. I was amazed when I tried them on and they fit so comfortably--in my book, there's no such thing as "breaking in" a boot; it should fit well from day one. Regarding their weight, they always feel heavy when I pick them up to put them on, but they've never felt heavy on my feet. They also have a really great lace locking system for perfect lacing. I even got them on and off fast at the airport!
