"I could not be more satisfied with this boot, by far the most comfortable I have ever owned. Virtually right out of the box and into the Grand Canyon for 6 days and did not get a single blister or have any discomfort for the whole trip. Was very surprised with this."

"Truly one of the best pair of shoes I've purchased yet. The combination of comfort, durability and warmth that you would expect from a shoe of this price. After 3 weeks of continuous use straight from the box and an almost instantaneous break in period, I'm left a little perplexed by the other reviewer's criticisms about the near total fit failures."

"One of the most disappointing purchases I have made. Comfortable right out of the box, with no blistering for the first few trips. Had thought I had found a new favourite. However, after less than a year of unexceptional use the leather starting softening to the extent that I could not lace the boot to avoid serious toe jamming and blistering."

"The toes shrank to the point I could not get my feet in them. I had purchased two pairs. The rubber toe shrank on one pair and the toes separated on the second pair. I had purchased them at MEC and they fully refunded the money. They did fit nice in the begining but within two months they began to be unwearable."
