"great boots so far! haven't really put them to the test though. purchased in the winter, so i've only used them snowshoeing on milder days and on a few day hikes this spring.

the fit is what catches my attention the most, the boots hug my feet very comfortably, and they react with my movements smoothly; natural walking form."
