"The Men's Asolo Flame GTX features the exclusive Asolo Matrix technology -a dual-density outsole incorporates Aso-brake for maximum downhill grip and offers superior grip on uneven terrains. While both the lightweight EVA midsole and suede and Cordura uppers seek to lighten the load, the Active Heel Support (ACH) element absorbs shocks and minimizes fatigue. Water-resistant suede mm high tenacity nylon upper. Gore-Tex lining. Lasting board constructed of Asoflex 00 SR. Lite 2 anatomic footbed. Matrix (rubber-EVA) and Active Heel Support (ACH)."

From Backcountry.com:
"The Asolo Men's Flame GTX Hiking Boot uses a blend of water-resistant suede and high-tenacity nylon to withstand all the abuses of a season in the backcountry. If any moisture manages to get through the tough exterior, it's stopped cold by the waterproof breathable Gore-Tex insert. Asolo used a Matrix sole with Active Heel Support to make the Flame GTX Hiking Boot a solid choice when you have to carry a lot of gear or travel on rough terrain."

MicroPulley patented lacing system allows efficient performance for easy pulling and reduced abrasion, plus improved fit and comfort. Removable EVA footbeds cushion feet and are perforated in the forefoot area for added ventilation. Lightweight EVA midsoles provide cushioning comfort and shock absorption. Asoflex® thermoplastic supports provide torsional stability and control while protecting against impact and bruises on rocks and uneven terrain.

"I recently purchased these boots for a Colorado elk hunt and am extremely pleased with my purchase. Out of the box, these boots look and feel like an extremely well made product. I went on 2 gear "shake down" hikes of a couple miles each prior to heading west, and the boots required little break-in for my feet."

"Great boots out of the box, little snug but great fit that will only get better. Time will tell but I had a pair of Osolo's that lasted ten years and multiple trips to Alaska. Have no reason to not trust that these will do the same. They look well constructed and just feel right."

"My previous pair was a Columbia Frontier. Asolo is more comfortable. Used my pair 6 times for about 100 miles. Twice in a heavy rainy trip, water remain outside, no blisters, feel good and foot is very stable. I am ready to repeat next time."
