I previously owned a pair of Merrell Wilderness (see review) and the Grand Traverse almost lives up to them.

The glued soles peel especially in rooty/rocky environments. And again, the lining wears think behind the heel but isn't that what duct tape is for?

They are very comfortable and took about a month to break in. I've backpacked about 400 miles in these, I'm 250 lbs.
