Comfortable But Not Durable
Yehoshua3 years ago
These are comfy right out of the box, but the downside is that the leather is rather thin/pliable and the soles I think are a bit too thin. They only last around a year or two with moderate use and can only be recrafted so much because of the lighter construction.
I think Danner hiking boots like the Mountain Light, Light, Explorer, etc. are worth the price tag, but these should really be $100-$150 cheaper.

From the beginning it was love - the gorgeous Horween leather, the sheen, the smell. The boots are comfortable with some break-in time - wore around the house to get comfortable with them. I can see wearing these for a long time and having them restored when the time comes. I’ve owned a few other Danner boots and shoes and these are a definite step up from those. Bravo to Danner for the craftsmanship they put into these boots. It would be nice if they toss in a few different laces (red and/or blue) to change up the look. I can always add them myself, but just a thought. :)

I'm very happy with my Mountain Pass Smores. I did replace the green laces with gold/tam ones because my wife did not like them although I didn't mind. I'm wearing them as much as I can at work to break them in for Spring but I must say they feel very comfortable out of the box.

1 year ago
Positives: Pretty light boot for how rugged it is. Breaks in in a day. Low profile lugs on sole are just the right amount of aggressive. It is a very well made boot. Negatives: Laces it comes with are too thin. Not sure if the eyelets will last (might pull out), as the upper leather on the vamp seems thin for the rivet. Even though it is an EE, it fits like a normal width. But that is the problem with Danner boots in general, their lasts are fairly narrow when compared to other manufacturers. Specifically at the ball of foot/big toe. I had to install thinner insoles. Luckily, as mentioned, they break in quick, and the leather around the toe box accommodated.

I was not disappointed Noah P helped me with all my concerns when I called. He was spot on. I even changed the boot I was looking at due to his recommendations. If you want a quality good looking boot that’s rugged can be worn out and outdoors. This boot nails it. The mink oil color is great and will definitely age well. It is not as dark as it looks. I was between this or dark brown when I chose it. If you don’t like the laces. I purchased the color I wanted to ship with the boot.

The boots are very comfortable
2 years ago
The boots are very comfortable right out of the box. Danner did a superb job mixing casual comfort within a serious hiking boot look. One complaint, a big one for me, was the Gunmetal color is completely different than the photos online. Online, the color is a gray, you could say a faded, weathered black that has turned to gray. In reality, the boots are straight up medium brown. Returned them, was told the brown was an aberration. Bought second pair, exact same Brown. Returned them. So, I think the boots are great, but my experience was very frustrating. I may actually buy them still, in the arctic color.

Super comfortable, Look Great

Super quick shipping from REI and quality boot from Danner. Comfortable out if the box from day one. Love the look. Lots of compliments on these boots. I normally wear a 10.5 in most shoes and these fit perfect. Definitely recommend these boots for what they are intended for.

I am pleased with the overall outsole construction.I will have them recruited with a traditional thick sole though the thin version is holding 👌. The material & color are as seen on Danner's website though just depends on the lighting you're in.Out of the box perfection so so comfortable and eye catching.Im definitely going to buy 2 more made in the 🇺🇸 boots,Ridge,Light II when they are available.They 💧 proof!!

Very good workmanship. It seems that they maybe on a bit of the wider size. When I order them they were only made in a EE. I have a wide foot so I tried them. I think they are going to work. Attached are the same boot I purchased in 1980. Hiked and hunted in these boots for almost 40 yrs. Boots on the right. Decided to get a new pair. The older model did have a more near width. Yay for Danner and made in America.

3 weeks ago
Really great boot. I’m wearing them in an urban environment and appreciate the low grippy sole. I also enjoy the lack of a waterproofed inner lining. Plain leather hikers are a rarity these days. Fit is spot on. I’m generally double wide in most boots and measure 9. 5 on Brannock device. I went with the 10 in these. At first I feel like the toe box is a little too snug but once I tightened up the laces it became a pleasant fit. I could see myself wearing these everyday of the year. I’d love to see a few more different color plain leather (no goretex) options and slightly longer, flat red laces.
