Hi, These are high quality boots. They are moderately stiff, and heavy weight, and require some break-in time (about two weeks). I replaced the insoles with some Montrail insoles. Plan to use them for trekking and glacier travel. They have the lip for wearing crampons. Make sure you break them in before taking them backcountry.
