"While breaking in boot feels ok, then completely fails on the trail. 2 whole weeks to get my feet back to normal."

"I found the Garmont hiking boot really good in design. It has a good sole grip and the fit to my feet is ok.

The thing I found not good to me is the sole, and in tropical country like Philippines, you should have a better hiking boot, and what happened in my Garmont hiking boot, it separated the sole from the body of shoe."
