Purchased these based on the size chart on the REI webpage for these boots. The boots look good, but they size was WAY off. When I put them on, my big toe was almost an inch and a half back from the toe of the boot, and the arch was under the ball of my foot. Interestingly, the EU to US size chart for these boots is not the same as for other boots, nor is it the same as on other websites. If you want to get these, go down about 2 sizes from what is shown on the chart. These are going right back to the store. I'm rating these as a 3 only because of the sizing discrepancy. I only wore them around the house, so I don't know how good they would be on a trail and I want to be fair.
I use hiking boots/ shoes for work where I am on my feet the entire time. I go through several pairs a year and have tried every brand- always hoping to find a pair that offer superior comfort in the midsole. These are actually an innovation in the midsole design and are the most comfortable I have ever experienced from the first day. Purchased a second pair instantly. If your feet hurt from overuse or not, these are the best
