Here's what other sites are saying:

From Campmor:
"Midweight boot offering durability and support. Great combination of materials makes the Mountain Trail an exceptional value. Breathable full-grain leather uppers feature one-piece construction for durable support and easy waterproofing. Waterproof, breathable Gore-Tex booties keep feet dry and comfortable, no matter what the weather. Cambrelle linings in front wick away moisture; leather lining in heels helps boots conform to the shape of your feet. Polyurethane midsoles are designed with more rocker for a smooth stride; full-length nylon shanks add stability and shock absorption. Dual-density Vibram rubber outsoles with aggressive lug pattern enhances traction uphill and down, plus clears mud easily. Built-in rubber rands add protection from water and trail hazards; rubber toe caps increase durability."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Raichle Mt. Trail XT GTX boot has enjoyed praise from numerous camps. The full grain leather upper is super durable, and its Gore-Tex lining ensures that the elements stay out. Internal Motion Control makes sure your foot stays put, and leather-lined padding in the tongue and ankle ensure a lifetime of comfort. The carefully crafted last and Vibram MT-Traction sole balance perfectly between load-bearing rigidity and the flex needed for long mileage.

Men's Mountain Trail XT GTX
Reviewed by David S. Miller, Jan 19, 2008

"I purchased these boots in early 2006. I see that they have changed the model slightly. But, I LOVE these boots.

I work outdoors in oil and gas exploration and carry heavy loads (30#+) at times in all terrains and these boots are a dream to wear! They fit like a glove, are waterproof, and need very little break-in time."
