Asolo Veloce Trail Shoes (For Men)

I bought these as a summer work shoe in my job as a delivery driver. As such, I am on my feet for up to 14 hours a day. The sizing is right on and the shoe is comfortable on the top but the sole is pretty hard in strange spots (outside ball of the foot near the little toe). This could just be me but I've never had problems there before. I still did a medium agressive 12 mile hike in them with no problem except as noted above. I'm going to add cushion inserts which I hope will make this a 4-star shoe instead of just a 2-star shoe and then I would recommend it to a friend.

I just got back from my 2 day adventure, hiking part of the AT from CT to MA. I specifically bought this shoe for this occasion. I climbed several “I can’t believe how steep that is” Mt’s that I didn’t think were possible with my 40lbs pack digging into my shoulders. The shoe seemed to work without me really knowing it was working. Super good up hill and super good down. I would have to say that they don’t do well for more then 8 hours of backpacking. The next day it rained slightly the whole day and everything was wet. This shoe didn’t do well with wet, which was fine for 2 or 3 hours of hiking but after wringing out my socks 2 or three times I realized that the next time I do this I either want a waterproof shoe or go hiking when it’s not wet out. The shoe is good for 2 to 3 hour hikes and light packs when it’s not wet out. I’m happy with this shoe, I just think I pushed it’s limits too far.

I've been wearing Asolo boots for 10 years, no other boot is better! Amazing fit, comfort and durability!

Might work for some, but was too wide in the toe box for my foot. The heel felt snug and there was good arch support.

Nice Shoe
