I bought these boots a year ago and have used them on a dozen hikes. I love the styling and fit. However, the inner stitching is right against the heel and it creates hotspots/blisters. I have owned many many pairs of boots in my life and am well aware of the need (sometimes) to break in a boot. I don't believe this is a case of breaking in a boot and more likely an issue with the raised stitching. Unfortunately I just can't use these boots anymore even though they only have about 100 miles on them.
I love this boot but i am concerned about the plastic lugs for lace tying that they will break easier than metal ones. For $270 you can provide metal lugs. Other than that they are comfortable, fit well, and loow great.
