Great shoe--don't order size up. By boatergirl from colorado on 07/22/2009 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: The shoe seems really great, but I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered a half size up, and the shoe is a little too big now. I've fixed it with some shoe sole inserts and thicker socks, but next time I'll order my regular size and start there. I've done several 6 mile hikes in them--very stable, and seem to have good traction even on wet rocks and sandy hills.
By Israel the Travel from Seattle on 07/11/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I tried both the 11.5 and 12 sizes, and the Oboz Hyalite simply didn't fit my feet properly. I was disappointed as reviews on the Hyalite are positive.
By TrailHacker from Santa Barbara, CA on 07/07/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Great Traction, Open toe box, Stable Best Uses: Backcountry, Day hikes 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: One reviewer complained that the shoes felt too loose. Oboz is known for their open toe box. They give you plenty of room for your toes but have a good fit in the midfoot. Since I hike a lot on unlevel ground, My toes are always getting mashed. I've only had these for a few days (and one 12 mile, 2500 elevation hike) but so far I have happy toes. Can't comment on durability yet.
By karen from louisville ky on 07/07/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Great support, Great Traction, Stable Best Uses: Day hikes, Everyday 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 got these shoes before my trip to the grand canyon. Wore them to the grocery once and hit the trail. They were immediately comfortable. I wore boots for the more rocky and hilly hikes. These shoes took me through miles of canyon and the red rocks of Sedona, AZ. I have fairly weak ankles and didn't worry for a minute about the support they had.

First pair was too small and I went up 1/2 size and now they are a little too long.
