I bought these boots for an AT hike. I broke them in by wearing them everyday and doing daily hikes up Stone Mtn with up 55 lbs. Spend some time getting the right sock combination and you'll be rewarded. Downhills with a heavy pack (+50 lbs) caused some shifting forward... I found that I kept the ankle laced tight. BUY 1 SIZE Larger than you normally wear!! This will accommodate socks and a feet that will enlarge over the period of a long hike. I removed the stock insoles and used SuperFeet (green)...
