Vasque Zephyr Tech Backpacking Boots (For Men)

Now have had boots over a half year. Initially tight in toe box, but gave them a chance and broke in well - now very comfortable. Spend lot of time on water paddling and boots have kept me relatively dry considering not listed as waterproof. Traction is pretty good, but not great. Weight and support of boots are excellent - great for everyday or for extended hiking. Love the cable lace system, though have one strand of a cable that has already broke and did not receive extra cables or any instructions on how to change cables. Be prepared to continually turn heads and be center of attention when racheting/tightening cables!

Excellent boots for easy on and off to go outside in the cold and wet weather. Great traction for the rough terrain. The challenge is with the lacing system adjustment. You have to constanly tweek it to get it between too tight and too loose. Once it is dialed in, they are like slippers.

Up in the snow my feet stayed nice and dry. Great shoe.

A little long break in time but well worth it. The boots feel great.

Bought these hiking boots for my husband. He loves them. After wearing the vasque sandles with this same lacing sysytem, he kept wishing for bootsthe same. Here they are. He loves the lacing sysytem.

The BOA lacing system is awesome! However, the boots themselves are a little stiff and will take a while to break in. They are also a little heavier than I expected. Great ankle support and a true, snug fit.

Excellent traction. I hike in rocky and loose terrain and these fit the bill. Love the lacing system. They give you that go anywhere feeling. Would highly recommend.

This Lacing system is COOL! No more tripping over long boot laces. I just hope the cable never breaks. They feel a little large, but not large enough to return for a half size smaller. These are for serious hikes so I believe my feet will swell enough on a long hike that they will be perfect.

Love the lacing option. I hate winter boot lacing. These are revolutionary...as far as I'm concerned. Paid[$]. Worth that or a 10% more

The lacing system works really well. I being able to wear hiking boots and still being able to get them on and off in just a few seconds. They are also very comfortable.
