By KC from Memphis, TN on 10/28/2009 Pros: Great Traction, Stable, Water Resistant Cons: Shoe liner wrinkled, Stiff Best Uses: Day hikes, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: My first issue was that the fabric shoe liner near the arch support was wrinkled in one of the shoes to the point that you can feel it when you're wearing the shoes. I've only hiked in the boots once (I wore them around for a few hours a day for a week to break them in). I got a blister on my heel after only 30-45min of hiking. I also had a bit of trouble getting them tied tight enough. However, I have high hopes for them once they are broken in better!
By zapr from San Juan island , Washington on 10/28/2009 Pros: Durable, Stable, Water Resistant Best Uses: Backcountry, Cold weather, Day hikes, Wet Weather 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: Stiff inner sole. Required additional cushioning and arch support. But a good sturdy boot for clearing trails and hiking.
By hikerjo from Seattle, WA on 10/27/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Great Traction, Stable, Water Resistant Best Uses: Backcountry, Cold weather, Day hikes, Wet Weather 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 bought these for a friend who reports they fit great and were comfortable on her first hike with them. She previously had the Classic Montrail Torre, and is just as happy with these. I wish Sierra Trading Post would have an 8 1/2 wide for me!!
By HP_Dutchman from Boston, MA on 10/27/2009 Pros: Ankle Support, Arch Support, Sturdy/Durable, Water Resistant Best Uses: Day Hiking, Harsh Terrain Describe Yourself: Environmentalist Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These boots are great. I'm a wetland scientist, so I end up subjecting my shoes to some pretty harsh conditions. So far, these boots are holding up great.

By loves to climb! from southeast, MO on 10/24/2009 Pros: Lightweight, Versatile Best Uses: Bouldering, Indoor Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels full size too small Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I was so excited to get these shoes in, and wow, holy cow- they're incredibly painful. I know a climbing shoe should be quite snug, but sheesh, these are ridiculous. They look good, but they're so painful! I think the Montrail climbing shoes run a full size too small, I wear a 9 wms. and wanted a snugger fit so I got the 39.5 and it feels like I've crammed my foot into a wms 7! Not sure what I'll do. Probably buy different ones and sell these on[@]. :(
By w from ann arbor, mi on 10/23/2009 Pros: Ankle Support, Great Traction, Sturdy/Durable, Warm, Water Resistant Cons: Too Stiff/Not Flexible Best Uses: Cold Weather, Day Hiking, Everyday, Long-Distance Hiking, Wet Conditions Describe Yourself: Casual/Recreational Sizing: Feels full size too big, Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought these boots because I wanted to use them as snow/rain boots and for hiking. I just spent a week hiking around Mt. Hood and the weather was cold and rainy. Luckily, these boots kept my feet warm and dry the whole time and I didn't even have to break them in. It has great traction and felt comfortable around wet rocks. I read the other reviews and they were right - buy a size smaller. Luckily, they fit perfectly now. My only complaint is that although it has great ankle support, it's a little stiff. It's the only thing that needs to be broken in though. Other than that, I highly recommend these boots.
By Lisa from Albany, New York on 10/23/2009 Pros: Great Traction, Warm, Water Resistant Cons: Too Stiff/Not Flexible Describe Yourself: Casual/Recreational Sizing: Feels half size too big Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Bought these boots towards the end of the season last year and just had the opportunity to use them now. And oh boy, my poor ankles are in pain! Just a bit to stiff in the ankle area. Even when I loosen the laces to given my ankles some breathing room, that didn't cut it. I have knots near my ankles now! Will be returning......
Frustrated Boot Shopper!! By Bootless Woman from Crosslake, MN on 10/21/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Sizing: Feels full size too big Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Boot feels like it is a mile too big!!! This is the third boot (all different brands) ordered in my size that have not fit! Why can't sizes be consistant?!?
Good value but one problem By Scout from Boise, ID on 10/21/2009 Pros: Ankle Support, Comfortable/No Break-In, Great Traction, Warm, Water Resistant Cons: Not Durable/ Wears Easily Best Uses: Day Hiking, Everyday, Light Loads, Wet Conditions Describe Yourself: Casual/Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I use these boots for some everyday wear as well as hiking on weekends. The best part is that they required no break-in period and are very comfortable, but the first pair started to come unglued on the toe. I exchanged them for a new pair but unfortunately they started to do the same thing after just a few days. I am going to try to glue them myself because they still seem to be a good value.
