Great in the snow, hard on the trail
By Chasarific from Olympia, WA on 7/7/2008
Pros:
Ankle Support, Great Traction, Sturdy/Durable, Water Resistant
Cons:
Heavy, Not Comfortable
Best Uses:
Wet Conditions
Describe Yourself:
Casual/Recreational
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I made the mistake of breaking these in on the trail up to the Inter Glacier (Mt. Rainier). I have weak heel skin to begin with so I was prepared wearing duck tape and liner socks. I still blistered. But... Once I got on the snow, these things were great! I would suggest a long, slow break in period for these boots.
