User Review: Montrail Moraine Classic

Reviewed April 20, 1999 by Lee

Rating:
Materials: nubuck leather
Use: rough/off trail with 30-50 lbs pack
Break-in Period: 20 miles
Weight: 3lb+
Price Paid: $80

After a year of challenging these boots (i got them for ridiculously cheap), it's time to retire them. Not because they perform poorly, but simply cause my feet have grown.

Support and waterproofness are top-notch, i had to seam-seal with silicone though. I've had many problems with a peeling rand (somewhere, a section of midsole will peel off every 50 miles) and that has been rather frustrating, but water has never leaked in and comfort has been great. The top of the toe box has seen a lot of wear, but this is probably my fault.

Use: off trail, mountainous terrain for search and rescue (seems planes'll never crash within 20 miles of a trail or road...all in a day's work though). These've lasted for close to 1000 miles. recommended, but i haven't tested out the new AT models. my next boots will be either the Scarpa SL or Cabela's GTX mountain hikers.
