By howienrc from Olympia, WA on 11/09/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Great Traction, Stable, Water Resistant Best Uses: Day hikes, Everyday, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sizing: Feels full size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have always LOVED my Lowa shoes and boots. However, they have always runned bigger. I usually wear a 10 and with Lowa's I order 9.5, but with these shoes I think I could even wear a 9! I guess I'll have room for thick hiking socks. I don't feel slippage and they are comfy, so I'm going to stick with them.

They have been named hiking shoe of the year and I can definately see why. They are FANTASTIC! So comfortable. My boyfriend bought the men's boot and loves his pair.

The Emporer Has No Clothes By Pretty Toney from Boston, MA on 04/05/2009 Best Uses: Backcountry, Day hikes Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sizing: Feels half size too big Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: These shoes are my first Lowa's. The brand has a reputation for quality and an in-the-know mystique about it, but my experience with these shoes is that they are clunky, overly stiff, and tight at the base of the toes. I tried them in 2 sizes. The size that did not pinch my foot at the base of my toes were so loose in the heel that it was impossible to lace them tight enough to prevent them from slipping at every step. The size that minimized slipping in the heel were overly narrow at the base of my toes. I have long, slender feet so this is usually not a problem for me. Because they are so stiff, breaking them in seemed like a fool's errand, so I ended up returning both pairs.
By Skip, jump, and run from Syracuse, NY on 02/20/2009 Sizing: Feels half size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I liked the shoe, but it was too big.
Good shoes which did not fit me. By EL from Ross, CA on 02/08/2009 Pros: Durable, Great Traction, Stable Best Uses: Cold weather, Day hikes, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Sizing: Feels half size too small Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These were nice looking and apparently well made shoes. I liked everything about them except that they were too tight in the toes and too loose in the heel. I sent them back but am sorry they did not fit me better. They would have been very useful.
