These boots. . . they hugged my feet and performed pretty well at holding them in place going uphill and down, they also held on to slippery rocks okay."

I've used these boots hiking the AT and other trails around Virginia. Great on the trail, however the traction was a little iffy when scrambling over boulders on Old Rag mountain."

I tested these boots, after a short break-in period, on a rocky trail that had a 1200 foot elevation change in less than a mile.
On both the uphill and downhill this boot performed admirably, it gripped damp rock and I had no problems with my foot slamming into the toebox on steep descents."
