User Review: Vasque Sundowner Classic ( purchased 2003)

Reviewed February 15, 2004 by Josephine

Rating:
Materials: Leather with Gore-Tex
Break-in Period: After 1 1/2 months of wearing around town and home in attempts to break in, still stiff and uncomfortable
Price Paid: ~$160

I tried two different pairs of these boots after hearing glowing things about them from friends who've had theirs for years and swear by them. The ones I purchased don't reflect this, though--they are terribly stiff, strangely narrow in the toe box (even the wider pair I tried), and loose in the heel--and I think I have fairly "standard" feet, perhaps slightly on the wide side. I now read that there is mounting dissatisfaction with the materials and workmanship since production shifted to China in the last few years and I must conclude that the pairs I tried out (was able to return them, thankfully) are substantively different than the older pairs. I don't recommend these unless you have very narrow feet in the toe and possibly wide heels (but who has wide heels?).
