I got these boots cause they were on sale but they are the most comfortable boot I've owned. I also have some montrail one sports and vasque sundowners. They have a foam lining which prevents foot slippage and provides cushion. I had surgery on a toe and everything made it hurt if I walked to any extent except real cushy running shoes. I got them during a hiking trip and my foot was sore until I put on the clarions. I haven't taken them in wet conditions while backpacking but today it rained like heck so I "tested some gear" and went for a nice wet walk. I stomped through puddles, some up to the ankle briefly and much to my surprize my foot stayed dry! I did treat the leather with aqua seal which makes them look like leather and used spray on the fabric patches. I think they will be too hot for summer use cause of the foam but I like them to fall back on when my feet hurt. For the price I paid ya can't beat em!
