Great - Up To 10 Miles

I got these a year ago. Excellent for short - medium hikes. However I did 20 miles yesterday and they were terrible. Excruciating pain and multiple blisters. Durability is great but just couldn’t hold up when it came to harder trails.

Made Wrong

Watch when you buy these. I purchased them and one shoe is made crocked and hard to wear. It turns my foot inward.

Waterproofing Is Bad

Bought these over the summer and have been using them for farm work ( nothing too crazy) well winter rolled around and the waterproofing has completely given out. left me with wet feet in -10 degree weather...

Too Small

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super cute but unfortunately it is not true to size. I got my usual size, a 12, which is what I get in any other shoe. I have wide feet and am actually an 11 but always get 12. Anyway I was so excited to try them on just now that I tried them on with no socks and my toe is scrapping against the front with no room for socks. Maybe I can take the soles out as I don’t feel like returning them but I’m disappointed because there’s no bigger size unless I go to mens

Not Waterproof

These are comfortable but not waterproof. Wore these for the first time today out and about in the forest and by the end of the day my feet and socks were wet.

Best Shoes Ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best shoes I own. Purchased Jan 2023 and they have lasted right about to the end of 2025. I hike a lot (60+ trails per year), and I have worn these shoes to hike up mountains, go through rivers, and trek through sand. Traction has worn off just a little, but that is to be expected. The waterproofing is still awesome and works well. Super comfortable and lots of good ankle support. Literally my favorite shoes ever, I am about to buy the same pair and hopefully wear them out for the next 3 years.

Great Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these a few months ago for extra ankle support after injuring the left ankle. They are very comfortable, light and supportive. I didn’t feel a lot of cushion in them but I was able to do 5-6 miles a day with relative ease on uneven, varied surface terrain (muddy, roots and rocks, stone, asphalt). I’ve tried other brands but these are going to be my go to.

Waterproofing Issues

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were waterproof for about 2 years. Keep in mind they probably only say action for a max of 80 days/ year. I have tried waterproofing them again with both wax and spray. Nothing worked. I expected a longer lifespan than 2 years. Traction is pretty good.

Great Hiking Boots

Second time purchasing these hiking boots. Absolutely love them. I'm a size 8-8.5 Woman's and wide, i purchased the 8.5. I can fit a pair of wool socks for extra warmth. They keep my feet dry as well. My favorite hiking boots!! Used in rough and wet terrain. The support is so comfortable!! The traction is great as well.

Definitely Would Buy Again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brought these about a month ago for my hiking trip in June, definitely did not break my ankle. I love them. Super comfortable and love the color of the shoes

Good Comfortable Boots

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these for a trip to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Glacier National Parks, where I knew I would be going on some challenging hikes. These boots were perfect on sand, rock, and snow! They are waterproof (though I didn't submerge them completely in water), which also means your feet will feel hot in the boots, but I think that is the trade-off. I saw at least 5 other girls with the same boots! I got some compliments as well. I'm a size 6.5 - 7 and I got a 7, but I wish I tried the 6.5 to compare. 7 was comfortable, my toes were not cramped and I was able to wear thick socks. I have flexible ankles and twist them a lot while hiking, so the extra ankle support was nice. When I wanted more flexibility, I laced up to the second-to-last aglet.

Received incentive

Super Comfortable

Used them out of the box and hiked 6 miles no problem.

Hike Boot

Not a bad beginner boot, but not a fan of the back being so short because it digs in the your upper heel while hiking up and down a mountain. The foot part of the boot was very comfortable. I got the wide option and glad I did. Overall comfortable walking on level ground just the low back is uncomfortable for mountain hiking.

Thrilled, Grippy & Light

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thrilled. Light, comfortable, totally waterproof & grippy treads.

Buy These Now!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LOVE these shoes!!! So cute and comfortable. Needed warm, waterproof shoes with traction for a trip to Iceland. Straight out of the box these boots were comfy - no break in time necessary. Running around, prepping for trip, they kept my feet warm and dry in negative temps and snow. Standing for 4+ hours at a time, no problem. These were the only shoes I took on my 7-day trip: walking, hiking, ice, snow, rain, airports, shopping on cobblestone streets - you name it, I did it and my feet felt great. Fortunately I did not experience standing in deep snow or excessive rain, so I can't speak to how waterproof they are in extreme climates - but the limited rain and snow I encountered my feet stayed dry. Traction was good on snow and ice, I didn't slip or slide once. Use the website measurements to choose your size - it was spot on. These boots look amazing on - they do not make your feet look big and the cream color with the pink laces...cute, cute, cute!!! Bought them to wear on my trip, will happily be wearing them all the time. Don't hesitate to purchase these boots, you will not be disappointed!
