Materials: leather
Use: very rough steep wet trail with 35lb pack
Break-in Period: 50 miles
Weight: 3.5lbs
Price Paid: $190

Comments: Terrain: Green Mountains, Vermont, in Camel's Hump region. Very rocky, tree rooted with short steep rises and falls.

Task: Move 60miles in 2.5 days.

Load: 35lbs.

My age: 49

Team age: 30 to 49

Experience: ex Special Forces. One SEAL.

Review: Great boots. Supportive. Only foot damage was to right medial malleolus due to very slight foot defect from parachute accident. Kept feet dry. Did not collapse when wet, unlike go faster gortex boots I've used. Good grip on rock. Now off to try them in Scotland which will be rather more of a test.
