I'm always hesitant to submit a review on hiking/backpacking gear until I have used it for a while. I have now put my pair of Asolo Drifter EVO boots through their paces - probably 250 miles. In 10 words or less: I love them. They are great 3-season boots that provide the ankle support that I need when hiking in NH's White Mountains. I've used them in light snow, pouring rain, 90-degree weather. Obviously, once wet, they dry a bit slower than trail runners, but the trade offs are worth it if you are looking for more foot protection.
