I just got these so this is a very preliminary review that I’ll update. Right out of the box these shoes are quite comfortable and fit well, which is uncommon for me. I’m going to the Azores soon where weather is fickle. So sturdy and waterproof footwear seems important to have.
Very light, extremely comfortable, stable underfoot. Moves like a trail runner while protecting you like a big boot. Couldn’t be more happy with this purchase. First big hike with them was a 14’er and while my legs have pain, my feet feel great. Grip was amazing on pitched boulders.
Brought these for a two week trip to Ireland and Scotland because I only wanted to take one pair of shoes. Wore them everyday for two weeks straight and they are incredibly comfortable and breathable. Highly recommended!
I’ve had these a short time but absolutely love them so far. I hiked up Mt Tecumseh in these and they worked perfectly. They’re waterproof, but still seem to be pretty breathable. The comfort is unmatched.
