By EL from Boston, MA on 07/26/2008 Pros: Durable, Great Traction, Stable, Water Resistant Best Uses: Backcountry, Cold weather, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I've had these boots for 3 years since getting them for [$] st STP. They are made of one-piece leather and the Gore-tex lining - with regular application of wax to the leather, these boots have kept my feet dry in winter snow and crossing streams. They take a few hikes to wear in (using leather conditioner helps soften it), so don't take them on an expedition out of the box. But after this, they are great. My feet are wider than normal and they are snug in these on shorter hikes, but they do ache a little at the widest parts after longer day hikes 9I suggest Asolo boots if you have wider feet). Good ankle support. The soles are long lasting.

might be a bit much for day-to-day casual wear, but for serious hiking / mountaineering, they're great.
