Purchased these primarily for walking and hiking, though also utilize as casual wear for work, etc. This pair arrived earlier than estimated for which I was grateful in that I embarked on a 2,500 mile road trip a couple of days later. Trip was for camping, hiking, sight seeing. Having completed that plus additional walks/short hikes since I can say that there were no break-in issues out of the box. Traction and stability are great. Waterproof translates into not being very breathable unfortunately. I've had many pairs of various Lowa's and this style runs 1/4" too large. That hasn't been issue so far. The tongue design is excellent for keeping rocks out. Quality looks to be good - - time will tell. Time will also tell how well they hold up. In mild wetness there was no leakage. These are spendy, though I'm happy with Innovo GTX.
Needed something a little lighter for hikes where ankle protection wasn’t required. Just couldn’t get down with the squishy trail runner thing, so I gave these a try. Perfect combination of weight and protection. I’m buying another pair of stash before they change it!
