I bought my first pair after admiring a buddy ’s pair. He talked them up enough for me to make the purchase. I anticipated not having any issues with them, but the reality was more exciting. I actively enjoy wearing them and find myself forgetting to take them off once I ’ m in the house.

Andrew T.
Great shoes. No break in period. I took them to Scotland for my honeymoon. Hiked up Ben Nevis when it was pouring rain, feet stayed warm and dry. My only recommendation is to buy more than one pair to make sure they do n't have any weird crease points or hot spots. I had to get 3 pairs in order to find one pair that did n't have hot spots on my pinky toe( weird creasing on the toes). All in all, I would recommend these shoes.

This is by far one of the best lightweight boots I 've ever owned. I 've punished them for several years now in all sorts of condition, and they barely show any wear. I hope Danner continues this line for many years to come.

Bought a pair of these in 2001 and they were ready to be sent back to Danner for new soles. Come to find out my wife and mother in law sold that pair in a yard sale..:( Waited things out and they came on sale at Dick's for just under$ 285. Pulled the trigger for another pair of 8 EE's and just could not be more pleased. This time, bought the new Danner DXT Comfort Insoles( direct for Danner), and they made the best hiking boot, even better. Yeah, They are a lot of money, but they are well worth every penny. With the Mountain light IIs, 1/2 size down is the right fit for me with the EE wide fit. And, Dick's had the boots at our front door in two days!!!

I bought my second pair of these approximately a month ago. My last pair I used to backpack the Himalayas twice, Colorado, North Carolina and North Georgia. I also used them as my go to hunting boot as well. They 're heavy duty and it taken care of will last for years and years. I brought the leather back to life on mine using mink oil several times. They look good with a pair of jeans as well and make a great statement when worn in. I hated to let my other pair go and buy another pair but they served me well for over a decade. I love these boots and they are perfect when broken in.

SouthernTrails
This is a great boot, especially for serious packing. The full leather uppers offer great protection and the sole/mid sole design is tops. Very little break in either. Though not made in the US, these are not made in Asia either and are a quality product. Asolo came recommended to me from a serious outdoorsman and I am hooked. Great boot that will last a long time.

I work for the Forest Service in Michigan. I have owned 4 pair of these boots and have put them through their paces. They are the only boots I will ever buy. If you have doubts, do n't.

[ Extremely comfortable and great quality. My first time wearing them was during a weekend trip to the mountains- had them on my feet all day, wore them around town, and then went on a 3 mile hike through dirt, mud, and some shallow stream. They were extremely comfortable and didn ’ t need any break in, plus they kept my feet dry. All the mud washed off very easily with a light brush and some warm water the next day. They run true to size.

[ Bought a pair of Oboz Sawtooth hiking boots a few years ago and it was the first pair of hiking boots that needed no `` break in '' period so when purchasing the Oboz Bridger hoped to encounter the same thing. These did not disappoint. I have a wide foot and need boots with a good toe box and I find these very comfortable for me and I get a 1/2 size bigger than my normal shoe size. Just got back from a three day hiking trip and the soles on these boots worked great on the very rocky terrain we hiked on.

Over the course of 11 days& 3000 miles, we visited Arches, Canyon Lands, Dead Horse Point, Zion, Sequoia, King's Canyon, Yosemite and Lake Tahoe. These hiking boots are awesome right out of the box with no break in period required. Narrow toe box so I went up ½ size. I highly recommend these mid ankle hiking boots for any& all trail types.

Apparently every other outdoor adventurer has the same opinion, because all stores were either out or low on inventory…. except Dick ’s. Not only did Dick ’s have my size in the color I wanted, they had TWO pair. Without the slightest feeling of greediness, I bought them both.

Columbia is by far my favorite brand of hiking boots/shoes because they always just fit me really well, and this boot is no exception. The Newton Wander is a good looking and comfortable hiking boot. I do n't feel like it needed any break in period, and I wore mine as my daily drivers until the arches were shot. I always left them tied, but could get them on and off quickly by looping the laces on and off of the top couple sets of hooks. Even after they were worn out and the soles were worn down, I kept them around and wore them a couple more times to do some landscaping work and rebuild a retaining wall in my back yard. They can really take a beating!

Ken R
I 've been researching hiking boots for several months and Asolo's products kept coming up over and over as the premier choice among experienced hikers. I was impressed by the loyalty of Asolo customers, and liked the look and reported performance of the Asolo Fugitive GTX Boot. Initially, I purchased the same size as my other boots, a 9 1/2. Upon the first test fit, I knew they were too small and returned the pair for a half size larger. The size 10 fit perfectly, but I will caution that these boots run a bit narrow( I do not have particularly large feet). Asolo thoughtfully offers `` wide '' sizes as well. I christened my new pair of Fugitives by taking a 33 mile trek on the Appalachian Trail in North Carolina in early March. The trail had a good bit of snow, ice and mud. Temperatures during the three day trip ranged from 17 to 64 degrees( F), and included periods of rain and snow. The boots performed beautifully in terms of thermal and waterproof qualities. Also, these boots are very easy to put on, which is a plus when going for that 1am potty run in the cold. My only criticism of the design is that the insole is made of an extremely hard material. By day three, the balls of my feet were hurting pretty badly, and definitely detracted from the enjoyment of my trip. Adding an extra layer of socks helped marginally. I 've never experienced this problem before, so, upon arriving back home, I compared the insole to that in my older boots. Big difference; my older( HiTec) boots( which are falling apart after 15 years) have a much softer insole. I love the Asolo Fugitive GTX Boot, but will definitely add a gel insole prior to my next trip. These are, by far, the nicest( and most expensive) hiking boots I 've ever owned, and would definitely recommend them to others, but with the cautions regarding the sizing and insole material. I hope to add a couple thousand comfortable miles to these boots in the years to come.

A couple of weeks ago, Muck Boot sent me a pair of boots to try out. I ’ ve worn them for everything from ag field days to foraging herbs in the woods, to the steam threshers event, to going to the grocery store. They are by far the most comfortable boots I ’ ve ever worn. My favorite thing is that the sole is soft and “ bouncy ”. I ’ m a very active person who has chronic pain. Good shoes are very important to help keep the pain as minimal as possible. These do the trick. They ’ re comfortable, have the right support for me and they ’ re also very easy to slip on and off. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Do recommend.

I would recommend sizing up if you have wider feet, but outside of that small issue the boots are a winner in my book.

I 've bought these Keen Targhee boots for several years. My latest pair arrived in mid April in the middle of a northern Wisconsin spring storm with rain, snow, sleet, and hail, all at the same time. None the less it was time to walk the dogs, so I put on my new boots, and spent 3 hours out in the storm with my dogs. The boots stood the test, keeping my feet warm and dry. Plus they were comfortable right out of the box! Good job Keen!

[ My husband says these are really comfortable and surprisingly lightweight. We haven ’ t tested the waterproofing and are interested to see if the mesh part on top is waterproof or not. I ordered the size my husband normally wears in hiking boots and the fit was perfect. Time will tell how long they last, but we are impressed so far!

The Moab Adventure 3 waterproof shoes have been fantastic for my job, which often involves hiking through wet areas.

Good boots. Light weight, good fit for me. I often have difficulty getting a just right fit. The Targhee has been a good boot for me in the past. The Apex version continues that tradition for me. Also have had a couple pairs of low top Zionics. I like them but the Apex fits me a bit better. A shade more toe box room. I would n't mind even a tad more. I will likely replace the Zionics with low top Apex shoes at some point. At 69 my feet are more particular than they once were and Keens keep me comfortably on the trail. Primarily woods trails, big hills and small mountain use. Use these as an everyday shoe also.

Very flexible shoes. I took them to the Galapagos Islands, and they held out very well on hikes, on boats and are attractive enough to wear out to dinner. They were perfect for the consistent rain in Ecuador. Very easy and convenient to put on. I 'm very happy with them. My only wish is that they worked better with my orthotics. I fit my orthotic inserts very easily into all of my other shoes which are the same shoe size. Not in these. So, I just kept the original Merrill insert in. Totally fine, but maybe a little less comfort.

[ I bought these end of August last year. Excellent fit( really best fit of a hiking boot I have ever had) and kept my feet warm through the winter even during subzero temps. Walking a puppy 4 to 5 times a day, comfort is key and with having wider than normal feet, the fact these come WIDE is a HUGE plus. Soles lasted about 360 miles with half that walking in sand so typical range of at the price point and still usable. Definitely buying another pair soon.

[ I have had several pairs of these and will keep buying them as long as they are available. I use them for everything from hiking and fishing to farm work, roofing and all types of construction. I even have a pair I wear for casual outings. I do n't think they are intended for the abuse I put them through, but they hold up pretty well and most importantly, I never think of my feet hurting while I 'm wearing them, even after long, exhausting days. My finicky feet love these hikers for all occasions.

[ I have found these boots to be extremely comfortable and very supportive. I normally add my own insoles to all boots but didn ’ t need to with these. They are true to size and very well made. The traction on the sole is spaced well. It does not collect excessive mud/etc. I would highly recommend these boots over other popular brands I have had before them.

I ’ m on my second Canadian winter with these. Very warm, very comfortable. They ’ re tall, almost up to my knee, and fit snug around my leg( though not “ tight ”) so as not to have huge gaps where snow can get in.

Note, however, these boots are not light, nor are they flexible like cheap boots — there ’ ll be no trips strolling in the mall with these. These are serious boots for serious cold.

When selecting boots for backpacking, consider features such as waterproofing, breathability, and traction. A good pair should provide ankle support and cushioning for comfort during long hikes. Additionally, look for durable materials that can withstand rugged terrain and varying weather conditions.
Choosing the right size for backpacking boots is crucial for comfort and performance. It's recommended to try on boots with the socks you plan to wear while hiking, ensuring there is enough room for your toes to move. Make sure to walk around in them to check for any pressure points or discomfort.
Backpacking boots are typically made from leather, synthetic materials, or a combination of both. Leather offers durability and water resistance, while synthetic materials are often lighter and more breathable. Consider your hiking environment and choose materials that will provide the best balance of comfort and protection.
Yes, different styles of boots cater to various terrains. For rocky or uneven surfaces, boots with a stiffer sole and enhanced ankle support are ideal. Conversely, lighter, more flexible boots may be suitable for well-maintained trails or less challenging hikes.
Waterproofing is very important in backpacking boots, especially if you plan to hike in wet or muddy conditions. Waterproof boots help keep your feet dry and comfortable, reducing the risk of blisters and discomfort. Look for boots with waterproof membranes or treatments for optimal protection.
The lifespan of backpacking boots can vary widely based on usage and care, but generally, they can last anywhere from a few hundred to over a thousand miles of hiking. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and reapplying waterproofing treatments, can extend their life. Pay attention to signs of wear, such as sole separation or compromised waterproofing.
