From Moosejaw:
"On Sale. Free Shipping. Montrail Men's Comp Shoe (Spring 2008) The Comp by Montrail has remained a popular shoe since 1995. That reputation stems from a sculpted fit that cradles your foot. The leather construction and high-ankle collar feel supportive without being stiff and boardy. Weight: 18 oz./0.51 kg Grip Aggressive heel tread for snow plunge stepping Large smearing lugs on forefoot Gryptonite GT compound for all angles Fit Roomy toe box Super-sculpted midfoot Extra-soft tongue and cuff Mid-height cut is supportive and cushioned Design Variable-tension lacing system controls heel cup Full-grain leather and mesh upper Nylon mesh is strategically placed where boot flexes most Animal Peak bagging Desert hiking Talus scrambling Off-roading Backpacking Scree skiing Fun hogging"
From Backcountry Outlet:
"If you punish your hiking shoes and your feet then you need the Montrail Men's Comps. These mid-height hikers can take on your scree skiing, rock scrambling, dirt sliding, and bushwhacking. Gryptonite GT tread sticks to uneven terrain yet doesn't wear down after only a few adventures. Durable full-grain leather uppers with mesh windows fit comfortably and let your feet breathe. Extra padding on the cuffs and tongues protect your ankles and insteps and help ensure these shoes feel cush instead of stiff after several miles on the trail. Roomy toe boxes let your piggies wiggle freely, even if your feet swell."
From Sierra Trading Post:
"CLOSEOUTS . When the trail calls, Montrail answers. These Montrail Comp hiking boots are formed with the GT (Gryptonite Trail) outsole and a high sidewall wrap for traction and control. Nubuck, mesh and suede uppers Dual-density polyurethane midsole Extra padded cuff and tongue Removable footbed Synthetic mesh lining Height: 3- ” Weight: 2 lb. 12 oz. pr. Medium width CLOSEOUTS . China."
From Altrec Outdoors:
"Limiting the Montrail Comp Lightweight Hiking Boot to day hikes is a little like driving a sports car only on Sundays--it serves you phenomenally well but you're missing out on the full potential. This is a great boot for camping, scrambling and backpacking in late spring and summer conditions. Montrail made the Comp Hiking boot with a durable full-grain leather upper that features nylon mesh panels that enhance flex and cooling. A variable tension lacing system helps hold your heel firmly in the heel cup when you need extra stability in tricky or exposed routes. Montrail has an exceptional reputation for making boots that fit well, so it's hardly a surprise that the Comp Lightweight Hiking Boot has a generous toe box and sculpted midfoot area for enhanced comfort on long ascents and leg-pounding descents. Gryptonite GT sticky rubber compound along the lug sole makes it easy to grip challenging and steep surfaces. One thing to keep in mind is that this version is Montrail's standard Comp boot--not the XCR version with the waterproof Gore-Tex membrane. Granted, this Comp does a great job in slightly damp conditions, but it might not be the best choice for soggy winter weekends spent camping along swollen rivers and creek beds."
