Reviewed by an anonymous hiker, Jul 27, 2005

"If you like to go on a few mountain hikes a year, it's a great boot, I'd give 'em the old five star rating. Fantastic stickiness on the lovely AK granite. Beautiful leather with pretty good water resistance (Nikwax paste is critical).

However, if you seriously use yer boots, prepare for the crappy soles to delaminate."

"This bot is awesome! I've used them since the early spring of 2003 and LOVED them. When I got em I went on a ski mountaineering day trip only with a few blisters (to be expected). These boots have incredable water repellency after slogging 10 miles in spring conditions."

"Alright, this review is to set the record straight about this boot.

This boot is for Heavy Backpacking and Light Mountaineering, period! That is why they have the M4 crampon compatable sole, 3mm leather, and a full shank. If you want a boot for casual trail walking, moderate backpacking, or flat trails Do Not Buy This Boot!

This is a great boot, extremely well made, and very supportive."

"I purchased these boots back in December after waiting for the new updated model to arrive at the local mountaineering shops. Being that I have been climbing with older Italian classic boots such as Pivetta 8's and Galibier SG's, I didn't know how I would like the new types of boots."
