    Abused, but they still love me!

    Bought my first pair in 2010, wore them out by 2017, abusing them as work boots on rough forest hillside with chainsaw work. Traction and ankle support saved me SO many times! Bought 2nd pair in 2017, now just hiking and still going strong at 9 years old. If I wear this pair out, I'll buy a 3rd pair!

    These are the most comfortable boot there are right out of the box. With proper care they will last you for many years. I have been wearing them for 30+ years.

    Great boot.

    Excellent fit and quality workmanship. Haven’t worn with weight but look forward to it.

    They work. They're comfortable. They're durable.

    This is my second pair.

    I'm getting my last pair resoled now.

    I wear the boots year round but more in the cold months in wyoming.

    In about seven years when this pair needs resoling I'll probably get another new pair.

    I have to get about a half size larger than needed to accommodate the large width of my foot. Although not perfect for me, it's probably the most comfortable hiking boot I've owned. There have many and most have been Scarpa.
