Agile, low profile and comfortable. Big fan!
Yes , I recommend this product
Great boot! I instantly felt supported not just in my ankle but in my entire step thanks to the solid construction. The grip was great when tested in loose rock scrambles and wet alpine conditions. They honestly only needed a few km to feel broken and perfect for my feet. I just adjusted them a few times the first time wearing them and now they're perfect. My favourite thing? They aren't clunky hiking boots. I usually opt for hiking shoes or even trail runners because I sometimes perceive hiking boots as bulky, but with the Konseal's that is absolutely not the case - agile, low profile and comfortable. Big fan!

Boots for casual hikes and crag approaches!
Yes , I recommend this product
The Konseal Trek feels great on the first few uses. While it hasn't been tested by extreme mountain terrain, it is already pretty comfortable and grippy for simple hikes and short approaches. Ankle support is key for me because of multiple ankle injuries, and these feel well supported without being heavy and stiff. I feel like they are already comfortable and don't have an extreme break-in time, which is nice to have your shoes comfortable and ready to use.

Solid Boot
Yes , I recommend this product
Summitted Kilimanjaro in these with no break in. 7 days on the Lemosho route and they held up well. My feet were never sore at the end of the days. Ankle support was excellent and I found that by simply adjusting how tight/loose I tied them that I could avoid any rubbing in the back ankle area. I ordered a half size up to accommodate thick socks and potential swelling, ended up with rubbing on the long downhill portions of this trek and not sure if that was caused by sizing up, lacing too tight/loose, or if it’s just the boot. Toes stayed comfortable in the frigid -15C for 95% of the hike and even when they did get a bit cold, they never froze and came back to life quickly. The traction was excellent, and breathability was average.

Were's the Wide size option?
Yes , I recommend this product
A bit narrow just before the toe box. The toe box itself is ok. Already at the max size lengthwise that I can tolerate so going a size up is not an option. There was a Wide option in the now-unavailable Acrus TR GTW. Otherwise, seem like a great boot, will see how they hold up to mountain rescue tasks.

Great boots
Yes , I recommend this product
My favorite boots to date. Highly recommend. I did change the insoles though as the ones that came with have no support or cushion.
