By Carpenter from Western Mass on 07/28/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Great Traction, Stable Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: so far so good. I have always worn the Tempest and it wasn't available. I like a wider toe box and this shoe seems to have that. I am a carpenter and need good footing/traction/stabilty for roofs, ladders and slippery lawns. The shoe bends well and doesn't crush the top of my foot, which is important because it seems I squat a lot. I hope it will be durable. The Tempest is leather and was super durable. I liked the Orix enough to get a back up pair.
Great sturdy trail shoes! By Love the outdoors from Sequim, WA on 06/08/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Great Traction, Stable Best Uses: Backcountry, Day hikes, Everyday Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I needed a shoe with a less flexible sole than my running shoes for walking and jogging and for also dealing with rocky sea shores. This shoe fits the bill.
By calliope13 from Colorado on 05/29/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Great Traction, Stable Cons: Heavy, Not enough arch support Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I was looking for a shoe I could trail run in...something light enough to run with, but giving me some protection from cactus, etc. These shoes were a bit heavy and bulky for running, plus the arch support was not enough for my very high arches. It's a decent shoe though, for day hiking on the trail. I returned the shoes.
