By Turtle from Bowling Green, Ky on 10/29/2009 Cons: Not Comfortable, Squeak Best Uses: Day Hiking, Harsh Terrain, Heavy Loads, Light Loads, Long-Distance Hiking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer, Environmentalist Sizing: Feels half size too small, Feels too small Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I own an old pair of REI Spirits by Raichle and love them. These boots are too narrow and crowd my forefoot and create problems for a sensitive ganglion on the bottom of my left foot. Am returning these good quality boots because of the fit. I am sorry I couldn't keep them.
By Redhawk from Idaho on 07/02/2009 Pros: Comfortable/No Break-In Best Uses: Everyday, Heavy Loads, Long-Distance Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual/Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Having sold hiking boots, climbing shoes, ski boots, etc at a outdoor specialty retailer I was very weary about not getting to even see these boots before buying let alone trying them on. Even so, since I could not find any decent boots in any of the shops where I live I decided to go for the on-line boot purchase. I love that they are leather lined and NOT Gore-Tex (I have nothing against Gore-Tex) as I want a more breathable boot. Anyway, these boots fit great and the time I have put in them I have found them to be very comfy with no hot spots. I am excited to put them through their paces in the Sawtooths soon. For a size reference using an American Brannock device I measure Men's 9 arch length and just under a 9 overall length. My width is in the C range. I purchased the U.S. 9 size (U.K. 8). They are beautiful boots. I didn't give them five stars as I have no idea on their durability yet. If I get some good miles out of them without delaminating then they will be five stars.
By Outdoorsman from Orrville, Ohio on 05/13/2009 Pros: Ankle Support, Arch Support, Sturdy/Durable Best Uses: Day Hiking, Everyday, Harsh Terrain, Heavy Loads, Light Loads, Long-Distance Hiking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer, Environmentalist Sizing: Feels full size too small Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These boots are very good quality. I am usually a size 12 but I ordered a 13 (because all the other reviews said they run small) which fits really good with trekking socks. Never owned a pair of Raichle boots before but seem to be constucted excellent. I am a big fan of leather lined boots especially if you plan on long hikes...say good bye to blisters with the glove leather lining
