EMS Carter Ridge GTX
The Carter Ridge GTX has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best backpacking boots for 2024.
For the price I paid this was a steal, and I don't regret it. I've gone through a few pairs of hiking shoes, from L.L. Bean outdoor sneakers (ok not best for backpacking) that I wore out to low-end ($60 dollars) TNF boots that just didn't work. So I tried these and what a difference. They're not too stiff but plenty supportive. Oh, and did I mention they're waterproof? The only reason I haven't given them 5 stars is they're not something that blew my mind away, they're just what I always expected a boot should do.
