From REI:
"Garmont Eclipse 3 XCR cross-trainers are shoes with the heart of a boot, delivering support, durability and breathability for any outdoor adventure. Lightweight nubuck leather and nylon mesh uppers are flexible and durable for active outdoor use. Seam-sealed Gore-Tex® XCR® inserts with wicking nylon linings protect feet from water leakage and offer superb breathability. Rubber toe caps protect feet and uppers from bumps and abrasion; gusseted and padded tongues keep out debris and relieve lace pressure. Crafted with Anatomically Directed Design™ components which biomechanically model the shoe's form to the human foot. This translates to a true anatomic fit, ample room for your big toes, comfort and support for your ankles and less tongue ''drift''. Removable anatomic footbeds add cushioning and have wicking topsheets for fast drying. Polyurethane midsoles with heel inserts supply cushioning and shock absorption for all-day comfort. Thermoplastic urethane midsole supports offer controlled flex and true trail stability. Vibram® G3."

From EMS:
"A shoe with the heart of a boot, Garmont's Eclipse III GTX XCR stabilizes light pack loads while providing the mobility and speed one expects from a shoe. Gore-Tex XCR vents out moisture during active wear and protects you completely from water. Compression-molded polyurethane midsole for long-lasting support and shock absorption. Gore-Tex XCR membrane is more breathable than regular Gore-Tex. Vibram G3+ outsoles are light, yet provide all-terrain maneuverability. Shock-absorbing footbed breathes, transfers moisture, and controls odor. Anatomically directed design enhances the fit and encourages the foot to use its own ability to stabilize, absorb shock, propel efficiently, and flex naturally. Toe bumper provides extra protection from rough terrain and adds durability. Nubuck and synthetic leathers with mesh uppers combine durability and breathability."

"My initially high opinion of the Eclipse has been revised downward because the soles of both shoes are falling off/delaminating. I'll rate the shoes high for comfort. There was no break in required. The fit suited my larger than average foot.

They get a 0 for durability."

Reviewed by Daniel Coons, Jan 21, 2009

"I've worn these shoes nearly every day for months now, and am very pleased. I have used similar shoes for daily wear for 10 years now, but these are my favorites. This is probably because of the fit which is generous and supportive. My feet have stayed dry with one exception of once in really wet conditions when they got a tad damp."
