“I haven't had these boots long but have made two trips with them. I ordered the boots 1/2 size larger per review recommendations. The boots ere new out of the box and the fit seemed very good. Tested them on a 7 day hike with a heavy pack into the Scapegoat Wilderness in Montana. Hiked many miles on a mix of trails that included everything. Comfort and support is superb. Holds the heel well and they'll lace up as tight as you want. The 6 and 1/2 inch uppers are great for small creeks and keeping the dust out. No leaks. The second trip was the Middle Fork of Powder River Canyon. This trail is as steep and rocky as it gets. Traction and ankle support over rock and boulder is superb. Use wool socks and not cotton with these boots. Overall, A great boot. I'll really test them this fall hunting season but I beleive these boots will not disappoint.”
