From RockCreek:
"The Women's Lowa Scout II is a classic backpacking boot for on/off trail use offering good support for 30+ pound packs.Recommended by Outside Magazine Buyers Guide:"LOWA SCOUT II IS UNBEATABLE." "Nothing makes a boot feel more cushy than a luscious leather lining - yet despite this luxury feature, the Scout seemed to clamor to be taken out for a punishing trail session with a full pack, so I obliged, even under a 40-pound load, they felt as stable as they did on my front lawn.""

From Backcountry.com:
"The Lowa Scout II is a classic seamless leather boot for adventurous backpackers seeking a lightweight alternative. The Scout II has a sturdy Vibram sole and full rubber rand for durability, and a leather lining for a fit like a glove."

From REI:
"A strong choice for all-around backpacking, these boots are supportive, comfortable and packed with features. One-piece, water-repellent nubuck leather uppers deliver reliable support and durability; leather linings enhance comfort and breathability. Padded, anatomically contoured tongues improve flex and ankle comfort, and reduce break-in time. Lowa's Climate System ensures that heat and moisture are pumped through holes at the top of the tongue and cuff when you walk. Polyurethane midsoles provide long-lasting shock absorption. Full nylon shanks offer the torsional support you need for heavy loads and challenging terrain. Vibram Tsavo rubber outsoles feature self-cleaning lugs for excellent grip on all types of terrain. Closeout."

From Sierra Trading Post:
"You'll find something to love about these Lowa Scout II hiking boots, whether it's the lusciously soft glove leather lining or the sturdy Vibram"

"The Lowa Scouts are very nice boots. I have a low volume foot that is flat and very wide. As soon as I tried the boots on, I knew they were for me. I must have tried on at least 10 different pairs of boots and none of them gave me the immediate comfort I was looking for except for these."

"This review is based on only one outing with these boots. I'll come back in a couple of months and update it. My wife and I took up hiking seriously about seven months ago. I've had nothing but problems with my feet since we started, basically becuase I didn't know anything about buying hiking boots."
