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.

They are well made (from Germany) and I really like the glove leather liners. The boot is nice and sturdy. It is very supportive too. It keeps me from pronating. A lot of other boots I try on feel like they are encouraging my feet to excessively roll inward (pronation), not good if you have flat feet.

They were not hard to break in at all. Just wore around the house for a week. Then went on the trails and not a problem. Went to Pikes Peak and they were a dream. My girlfriend had some Asolos (model?) and her toe nail turned black and blue! My feet didn't have a blister, bruise, or hot spot.

These boots were on sale but I would have paid the full price. I am very happy with these. Not only are they very sturdy and durable, they are nice looking too. I can probably get away with wearing them with jeans! I hope they last a long time because I really like them.
