User Review: Montrail Hardrock

Montrail Hardrock
Above: The current Hardrock, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Reviewed August 29, 2009 by Pete

Rating: rated 0 of 5 stars

Be aware that all of the five star reviews you read here are dated before 2008, before the much criticized Hardrock 08 and 09 were released. Seems like pre-08 and 09 Hardock fans are legion, but Hardrocks have gone downhill since.

Trailspace should acknowledge the difference apart from the vague caption near the picture of the 09 that we see on this page. Why can't Columbia (who bought Montrails) bring back something that has a proven track record? When will these shoe companies accept the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" adage. Not every shoe has to be "upgraded."

Bring back the pre-08's that these five star reviews actually refer to.
