Pivetta Muir Trail

The finest boots I have ever owned. They are on their 6 or 7 set of soles.

Wes, if you have two pair of Muir Trails that must be why our inventory was short back when we were in college. You did use them a lot on rescue, but other than that I think they were for "beer runs".

Seriously you will never find a better boot. I have used on approach to Mt Shasta, North Pal, Thunderbolt, Darwin, etc.

Does anyone know the best place to have them resoled with yellow Vibrams? I am looking for an artisan that won't screw them up.

Great support, light weight, bought them about 15 yrs. ago and just had them re-soled last week, they still feel great. They are trim, without the big bumpers that are on most hiking boots and they look much better than those gore-tex, plastic looking ones on the market today. Wish I could find out if they are still made and where I could get another pair. I noticed on the inside it is stamped Pivetta made in Italy for DMC model: Muir Trail. they were a light grey suede with smoth glove leather inside which is why they are so comfortable. If still available please let me know!

I love these boots! Bought 2 pairs and have probably 10,000 miles on them. They both have been resoled 5-6 times and have had the insides rebuilt several times.

I pioneered light weight hiking shoes in the early '70s when I used a pair of Nike Waffle Trainers on a backpack trip in the Sierras. Everybody else wore 8lb Lowa boots and I flew around them. At that time the "Muir Trail" was considered "too light" to backpack with, but I used them all over the Sierra with great success.

I've had these boots for 25 years and they are unbelievable. The most comfortable ones imaginable.

Still going strong after 31 years of use from moderate backpacking to extensive lawn mowing!
