User Review: Merrell Wilderness

Merrell Wilderness
Above: The current Wilderness, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 2 of 5 stars
Materials: Leather
Use: Backpacking, Rough Trail Med-Heavy Pack
Break-in Period: 30 Miles
Weight: ??

I tore these boots apart. Perhaps I got a dud pair, but after a few hundred miles (granted, they were wretched miles with a wretched pack in Nepal) the soles decided to peel off. The leather streched more than I wanted too, compromising fit -- use softening grease (i.e. Limmer's) with care. Overall, I was shocked with the flimsy sole.
