[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great boots! I used them up while up north in the rain and my feet were dry and toasty. These boots are very comfortable and provide great stability and support on various terrains.
North Face was my 1st online shoe purchase. I was hesitant at first but was calmed when the sizing chart shoed the exact brand that I wore on a regular basis. After receiving the boots they were a perfect fit. Even more so my custome made orthopedics fit in the shoe perfectly. Very comfortable and durable. This is m6 2nd pair and the only "non" complaint is that they discontinued the original style ordered the previous year. The new style is great and same perfect fit. This review has only 4 stars as I have only had this pair 3 weeks. I truely expect quality and enjoyment to continue. I will order from North Face in the future.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shes were too tight despite following size guide, north face would not do an online exchange after I got no response when trying to call in to their Washington Square location to get the right size in person. Now I'm back to square one without any boots whatsoever. Boo hoo.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They are supper comfortable.....
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just needed a pair of shoes that provided support to my feet while I did my normal daily duties, routines and errands. While they did take a bit longer to break in tham I would have liked (and it really wasn't that long when I think about it), I am very satisfied with them. I haven't tested them in water but I might have a better idea later today as some thunderstorms are expected. But I will keep them in mind as a repeat purchase when the time comes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These hiking boots are outstanding. I have worn The North Face boots for many years, and the Hedgehog 3 Waterproof Hiking Boots do not disappoint. Extremely well made, durable, functional; everything you would expect from a boot designed for hiking or trekking. The overall structural support for the feet and ankles are ideal for backpacking on-trail; and they look good too. They feel so good, I wear them every day, not just hiking.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've never had his this comfortable in my life. I usually wear a size 9 in women's, but this color/style was only available in men's. I ordered a size 8 and it fits perfectly (7.5 was too small). The boot offers good support around my ankles and they look great. I may get another color in women's.
I bought these boots as a gift for my husband, who commutes to NYC for work. I didn't want to give him tall boots since they can be uncomfortable for all-day wear. He loves these, saying they're similar to sneakers and incredibly comfortable for his commute.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use these boots predominately for hiking and they're perfect. Very lightweight and breathable boot which are all important factors to consider when walking miles in the woods. Can't wait to get great adventures out of these boots!
Great boots. I haven't had the opportunity to test yet in sloppy conditions. Double check sizing ... these run a little small. Compare the EU sizing (vs. U.S.) to a pair of good fitting shoes you already own for the best fit.
