INTERESTING EXCELLENT BOOT By MDC from SLC from Salt Lake City, UT on 07/04/2009 Pros: Ankle Support, Arch Support, Lightweight, Sturdy/Durable Best Uses: Day Hiking, Harsh Terrain, Light Loads, Warm weather Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer, Casual/Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This boot is similar if not identical to a boot AKU developed for the U.S. Navy Seals, except for the color which was all gray. I see this boot as multi- terrain with an emphasis on rocky terrain, sort of a high top approach shoe, but the shoe is actually quite good for anything short of backpacking with heavy loads. I imagine these boots would be good in the rocky deserts of Utah and the Southwest. The only weakness is they are a little slippery in wet conditions and not the best tread for snowy conditions, and I don't know if you could waterproof them, but this is a summer boot anyway in my opinion. I could see this boot being used as a mountaineering boot in rocky but dry conditions. All in all a very light weight boot that's well made and comfortable with a snug fit like an approach shoe. I bought my usual size, but have worn a slightly lighter weight sock than usual and the shoe is still very comfortable. An excellent boot and very unique.

Great Multi-Terrain Boots By Jusco from Honolulu, HI on 07/01/2009 Pros: Ankle Support, Comfortable/No Break-In, Flexible, Great Traction, Sturdy/Durable, Water Resistant Cons: Treads Catch on Rocks Best Uses: Day Hiking, Everyday, Light Loads, Wet Conditions Describe Yourself: Avid Hiker Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I used these boots on a trip to Kauai in anticipation of slippery conditions and they didn't disappoint. The treads are deep so they grip well in wet conditions. Ankle support is great without feeling overly cumbersome. There's virtually no break-in time so you can use them straight out of the box. Waterproofing works perfectly, they're nice and light, and they grip well - it's hard to find something bad to say about them.
The only slight problem I found was that they can be a bit slippery when crossing streams (which is to be expected) and if you're climbing around on rocks the deep treads can catch sometimes.
These are great boots and I am very pleased with them.
Comfortable on trail and snow By enf from SF Bay Area on 06/29/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Good Traction, Warm, Waterproof Best Uses: Slippery Terrain, Snow Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I just used these boots for the first time on Mt. Shasta. Yes, I did not even break them in. I thought they might be too rigid for simple trail hiking but they were comfortable. On the snow and ice, they were cozy, warm, and watertight. They were fine with crampon usage. Overall a great mountaineering boot. And I got compliments about the blue color.

By AJ from Raleigh, NC on 06/22/2009 Pros: Ankle Support, Comfortable/No Break-In, Great Traction, Sturdy/Durable, Warm, Water Resistant Cons: Too Stiff/Not Flexible Best Uses: Day Hiking, Everyday, Harsh Terrain Describe Yourself: Casual/Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is my first hiking shoe, and I love it! I have worn it several times now, and the only con I have for this shoe is that it is too stiff around the ankles.
