This was a very nice boot. For walking on moderate trails I was really impressed with the ankle support. The polypropylene shank gave the boot excellent torsional rigidity. The Gore-Tex was a great addition to the boot. It allowed me to walk through small creeks. Unfortunately, after about two months the boots started to leak in the front. I sent them back and they were unable to fix them.

Good boot for a 10 day hike over med. trails w/ a 45+ lb pack. That's all I have to say, besides that it's a good price and comes w/Gore-Tex. A wider boot than most.
