Overall I like these boots as they are a little lighter and more versatile than other mountaineering boots, ideal for scrambling and off-trail travel. The soles are grippy and durable and the boots breathe well. However, only specific to the style of boots that has the ventilation panel on the sides of the boots, the stitching around it is already coming apart after less than half a dozen uses! So if you are going to get these boots, be sure to get the full leather ones without that funky ventilation panel!
