Lowa Banff Backpacking Boots (For Men)

I used these boots for multiple-day, heavy backpacking. I'm a female (with wide feet) so bought men's shoes. Wore them at work a few weeks so I could get a feel for them before I went out. Not too bad getting used to, but if your feet are at all "out of the ordinary" please wear first to break in and find your "hot spots" as they are a heavy boot. Support was great, looks great.

I wear hiking boots most of the time because I have bad feet and they are the only thing with enough support. These are great - my feet just go "aaahhh" when I put them on. Very solid ankle support and great arch support. Excellent fit for me - I have somewhat narrow heels but wide feet. No rubbing, plenty of toe room, no problems at all from when I first put them on. They are stiff, but I like them that way; I need the support. I wear them as every day boots, can't speak for how they hold up to heavy duty hiking but they are taking daily wear well.

Comfortable for all day use. Going to try them out for fire season and see how it goes. Besides the stiffness, one of the most comfortable boots I've ever worn.

second pair of lowa leather lined boots, just love them. wear mostly on hikng trips but also great winter/work boot

I have had these boots for over 2 years and have put many miles on them in the Smokey Mts. I still love them. I highly recommend them.
