I have the PM200's, but have not had them on the trail yet. I just picked them up a few weeks ago and have been using them as work boots in the yard. Last weekend I spent 12 hours in them moving 2000+ lbs of flagstone. I was wearing the same smart wool socks I plan on hiking in and the rock pieces were at least 100 lbs each. My experience was that they seemed to breath well and I did not overheat. At the end of the day my socks did not feel damp and my feet felt great. No hots spots and no blisters.

All in all I would say I made the right decision in getting these boots. As a side note they also did great when I used the toe to prop up a few rock pieces or dropped them a short distance. A wet rag at the end of the day and they look brand new. No scuffs at all.
