I bought these boots after reading reviews on various web pages. It was a long process to pick out the right boots. I go about 10-15 miles every Saturday except today. Today I tried the boots out for the first time. I wore two pair socks and actually felt a little hot spot on my left heel right away. I stopped put some moleskin on.

I was planning to do a relatively flat 11 miles desert hike today to break these out but after 3 miles I had to return. My left heel was literally coming off while my right was fine. At 102 my feet were sweating a lot but that is normal in Nevada.

I did buy these at Sierra Trading post and they were a great deal but they are going back. I've had better luck with a cheap pair of Merrels.
