Vasque Sundowner Gore-Tex® Hiking Boots - Waterproof (For Women)

Great boots for all types of weather. I can even wear them into a restaurant after hiking.

I wear a 10 and probably should have gotten a 9.5. I just wear thick socks. They are exactly what I wanted and you can't beat the price. They are [$] boots and that's if you find them cheap! They are a little heavy and they don't seem to keep your feet warm, but the socks will make up for that. I owned a pair of these many yrs ago and they lasted me FOREVER. The only reason I got rid of them is because I was keeping up with the Joneses and started wearing Timberlands. Not again. I bought a pair for my 8 yr old son and now I have them as well. Great boots..and they look good too!

frequent walking on average to rough terrain, creeks, mud, cold weather....feels great...feet stay warm,dry, no slipping on mud or rocks

These boots have been around forever. I bought a pair in 1993 and wore them through four seasons as a wilderness ranger in the Eastern Sierra Nevada, hiked Hawaii and kept hiking with them until I finally had to replace them in 2008. They are sturdy without being too bulky. They are slightly heavier than the newer light hikers, but if you are climbing on rocks or in wet areas they'll stand up to it better than the light hikers. I had these resoled twice over the years...Absolutely wonderful all-around boots. I do recommend, however, getting your own arch support/inserts for them.

Sad - great looking boot had to be returned: Width Too small!! This is the second Vasque boot that was returned because it was too small.
