Review: You won't be disappointed. - Amazing hiking boots. Super comfy, waterproof, and rugged. They barely even took any breaking in. My second time using them was a 3 day trip to the Tetons where I put about 50 miles on these bad boys and I came out with absolutely no blisters or hot spots. They are the most expensive hiking boots I've ever purchased, but they are worth every penny.
Review: Truly superior product - These are the best hiking shoes I have tried out. I love the lightness, quality, comfort, look, and support of these shoes. The price is reasonable for the quality. I highly recommend buying leather conditioner and learning about how to care for these, so that they last you a long time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's a tight fit.
*by J***M on October 8, 2024*

The boots fit tight but once I get them on they feel good. I can't seem to get my feet to slip in like I can with other boots. I don't care for the top lace things on the boots because it's hard to get the laces tight. Sometimes it's hard to get the laces in the slot.
