These are the lightest yet sturdiest and most comfortable hiking shoes I’ve ever worn! They are nice and wide in the toe box, have a well-cushioned sole and good ankle support. Looking forward to wearing them on the West Highland Way in Scotland in a couple of weeks.

I had such high hopes for these shoes but they do fall short in a few areas. Sole wise, they have great grip and I do not slip. I tested them by walking into a creek and they are DEFINITELY waterproof. They are comfy on 1-2 mile hikes but I worry for how they will be on long hikes, especially backpacking trips. They are pretty loose starting at the ankle on upwards causing the foot to slide around some. Also on the left shoe, because of the looseness, the side of the shoe digs into my body. I would worry it would cause sores or blisters. I want to love them but I need boots that can hold up for long haul multi day backpacking trips and I just don't think these can do that.

Versatile, Comfortable Boot
9 months ago
Love these boots! I started wearing these straight out of the box for my 2 week trip to Iceland. From city walks to hiking through snow, ice and creeks, these boots kept me warm, dry and comfortable. The GoreTex upper works extremely well, even when my foot got submerged in water. The traction was great for hiking up into the highlands and around the city. And the cushioning/materials kept my feet comfy and dry all day. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a versatile boot.

Pretty good after trying 6 boots
1 month ago
I bought 6 pair of boots to try on for Alaska and these are the only ones I kept. These are goretex and lightweight which i prefer, they seemed to be waterproof after a few rainy hikes, but even after one trail the black pair I bought are already discolored for good so I gave up trying to wash them. They stayed comfortable after a 30k step day and took no breaking in which is great. I recommend sizing up a half size. I wish they were a tad less boxy in the toe where they feel too spacious for me. I hope these last or will be disappointed in the price tag

Great boot- runs roomy

Great hiking boot! Took them out of the box on a week long trip to Iceland and they were comfortable from the start. Did a little scrambling and they felt sturdy and supportive. They also worked well for Icelands wet weather- my feet felt dry the entire week even though we got caught in the rain a few times. I wish I had bought a half size smaller though... I purchased my sneaker size, which is half a size up from my regular shoes, thinking the extra room would be better for tired feet but the toe box feels a little too roomy and my foot slips a little inside the boot while climbing down rocks.

GREAT BOOTS !
7 days ago
I bought these a couple months ago for my recent trip to Washington! I have plantar fasciitis and got these initially because they have a big toe box. Let me tell you, my feet felt great even after 20 miles of hiking numerous straight up and straight down hills. I got a 5.5 (which is usually my normal size), and I wasn’t disappointed at all. My feet felt great besides being on them everyday hiking the Washington mountains there was no plantar pain & I was able to get up the next day and have no issues! While the people I was with was having foot pain the initial day/rest of the week. I initially got them on sale! Even if they aren’t, they would be worth it ! (I got the purple/green)

An all-around great boot
1 year ago
Recently bought these boots, and hiked 10 miles this past weekend. These boots were comfortable and very light weight. These trails were uneven, muddy and rocky. I crossed a few creeks with no issues. I am a clumsy hiker and not once did I feel my ankle went unsupported. I definitely would recommend these boots! I can’t wait to try them on a 14er this summer.

Absolutely love these hiking boots. First time switching up from Hoka Trail Runners (for hiking) and I’m stoked. I had zero issues with them. Very comfortable, great grip, they’re waterproof so you can wear year round & they have great ankle support.

Very comfortable

I got it 4 days before the trip to Peru, so I didn’t have time to break in. I was in the Inka trail 4 days, went through steep rocky roads, jungle, light rain and so much more but these shoes was so comfortable, and perfect waterproof. Love it

My Cinderella Slippers

I love love love my Cinderella slippers…. I walked over 1000km on the Camino del Norte in Spain plus additional kilometers in France in these boot, plus all my training… carried a 20-25lbs pack and they performed like a Merrell boot should. They were extremely comfortable, I had no problems drying them out when I got them soaked hiking all day in wet mud, and took a brush to them in the morning and they looked great. I loved them so much I came home and quickly bought another pair so when i need them they won’t be sold out. I usually usually wear an 8 shoe, 8.5 boot, but for this I bought a 9. They are light weight, performed well, held up well, and I am still wearing them. The price was pretty good …. But the performance was fantastic!
