Pros:
Ankle Support, Comfortable/No Break-In, Great Traction, Sturdy/Durable
Best Uses:
Cold Weather, Day Hiking, Harsh Terrain, Long-Distance Hiking
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer, Casual/Recreational
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These boots are true quality and value. You do not find much of anything these days that is made like these boots. A little heavy but very comfortable with little break-in required. They are really built to last a lifetime. I have not had the opportunity to put them to a real test, but plan to this weekend. The only suggestion that I would make for improvement is a better insole.

Cold Weather, Everyday, Harsh Terrain, Long-Distance Hiking
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I liked them so much I bought a second pair! I have a wide foot, and I've found that a 10.5 EE is what I need - these really fit. Really nicely well-made, not TOO heavy but thick enough to give good support and foot protection.
Excellent heavy duty boots

As everyone had said, these are excellent boots very well crafted, they are art pieces.
Great support, durable, good looking...I just can't say it all.
Only problem I have with them is that the wide is a bit too wide for me, unlike other brands' wide would just be perfect. I will order M for my next pair.
Please note that the size here in Sierra Trading Post shows as US size but actually it's UK. If you think it to be US you will get one size too large.
