Above: The current AFX 535, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Reviewed September 20, 1997 by an anonymous hiker

Rating:
Materials: one-piece leather
Use: medium use w/median weight pack
Break-in Period: about 2 weeks (20-30 miles)
Weight: around 3lbs.?
Price Paid: $150

In the store they were very comfortable. They continued to be comfortable until they broke in. A few good points: very waterproof w/ adequate treatings (every 30 miles), very sturdy sole, good traction, nice looking, one-piece leather uppers.

A few bad points: too much room in the toe area, loses support in the ankle region, can't tighten down easily as Asolos w/pulley systems, too much tongue, unless you have really big and wide feet you need two pairs of hiking socks. Over all I am pleased but I am looking for more support. Would I recommend them? All I can say is try them and see. I can't tell you how they will feel on your feet.
