3.0 out of 5 stars. Hiking bootVerified Buyer Reviewed by Man of the woods from Minnesota on Friday, October 26, 2018For a medium, the boot was a lot narrower than other brands. I could not even get the boot on. Looked well made.

5.0 out of 5 stars. The Minimalist Hiking ShoeVerified Buyer Reviewed by The Outlawyer from SWVA on Friday, September 29, 2017Beautifully lasted from fine materials, a real find at the price! The leather is Yak leather, wonderfully soft and the sewing and linings are top rank. But it's the fit that took me by surprise. I ordered these and ended up with 9.5 when I usually wear a 10 0r 10.5 Tremendous ankle and arch support in a shoe that weighs little and looks tremendous! They are narrower than Hanwag and Lowa and are really stylish in appearance. Made in Italy. And don't you forget it.

3.0 out of 5 stars. Great for the first two days but...Verified Buyer Reviewed by Eamon from Bozeman, MT on Thursday, September 28, 2017Wore these around for a day to make sure they would work. Comfortable out of the box. Took them on a 4 day hunting trip. First two days were great, no problems. Third day the heel in on of my boots started to hurt, not rub and blister but a deep pain. The next day the pain only got worse. This was only in the right shoe. By the time i got to my truck my right heel was throbbing and my left front foot felt sprained. I really wanted these boots to work and im hoping its just my dainty feet. But, beware....

5.0 out of 5 stars. Great lightweight leather bootsVerified Buyer Reviewed by briandd43 from Maine on Friday, September 8, 2017Have gotten a few New England mountain miles on these. Comfortable out of the box. Look great - waterproof as described (walked through a couple small streams). Great construction for the price, and the soles grip great - even on wet rocks. My only issue is that the soft, supple leather (which looks great initially) is very susceptible to scuffing. After a 5 mile hike, the boots look like I'd been wearing them for 5 months. I don't mind the aesthetics of a worn-looking boot, but others might take issue.
