Asolo Power Matic 200 GV Backpacking Boot - Men's

The Asolo Men's Power Matic 200 GV Backpacking Boot has a waterproof Gore-Tex lining and fatigue-reducing technology to keep you moving for your hardcore winter hikes. The Power Matic sole's front density gives you maximum support, and a heel density that reduces shock and fatigue. Cylinders throughout the outsole and midsole absorb jarring from your steps, so you can take on the trail and have more energy for the long haul. The waterproof Gore-Tex lining protects your feet from those soggy spring days, and provides high breathability for the long haul. A wide fit gives your feet more comfort without sacrificing support—less squashed toes and more stability.

Bottom Line: Give long lasting power to your stride with Asolo's Power Matic 200 GV Backpacking Boot.

BUY THIS BOOT---------!!!!

By:
October 10, 2009

These shoes absolutely rock!! It is true they do take a little time to break in- don't return them cuz you think they don't fit right, cruise around in them for a couple days and you'll agree. Spend your loot on these puppies. Had to replace my old Asolo 520 Gtx's with these. Never buying any kind of hiking boot but Asolo's again. My whole sole came off from my 520's(due to dry rot and 5 years of hiking, not equipment failure)- and continued to hike down hill in sloppy water logged trail for about 1/2 mile and unbelievably my feet were totally dry. Asolo 1, Trail 0

Review Title

November 1, 2009

Awesome boots! These are the first pair of Asolo boots I have owned and I am now a true believer... Right out of the box they fit great; no blisters or hot spots at all. Purchased them primarily for spring/fall sloppy hikes which with gore-tex, makes these boots perfect. Def. plan on having these boots for many more seasons and when the time comes to replace, I have a feeling it will be another pair of Asolo's.

with any boot that now has several layers built into it. This boots has three alone. The cobbler is going to one. hate you if he tries to resole these successfully And second. Charge you a pretty penny. I once had the same question. I got a quote from the cobbler for these. 120$ to resole these. Might as well get a new pair!

Worth every penny

By:
October 10, 2009

These are the best boots I have ever worn, plain and simple. My feet are size 10 and medium-width and these boots fit them perfectly. They do take a little while to break in, but I have yet to have any issues with blisters or hotspots while wearing them. The pulley lacing makes tightening the boots effortless and no amount of sand or dirt that I encountered this summer could make it less smooth. The bulk of the action that these boots have seen was a 23-day backpacking trip through the Alaska Range and they can probably take many more trips of that magnitude. They are a bit scuffed up now from rocks and more bushwhacking than I would care to remember, but I didn't buy these boots to look pretty.

Could these boots be fitted with crampons for hiking on ice or snow? Nothing too hardcore like ice climbing, just hiking?

These boots work better with traditional (strap-on) crampons. Step-in crampons work better with plastic boots. For winter hiking on ice & snow I use slip-on traction devices like Yak Trax or micro spikes.

Like a glove

By:

I slipped these on the other day for the first time and took off for the Glacier. I was worried: who takes brand new boots and stomps around on a galcier? Verdict: no bumps, no blisters, not even a hot spot! It felt like a glove and I love them. Total worth the cash! Do your feet a favor.

Rugged Australian Outback

By:
May 25, 2009

I had my mate bring these bad boys to me from the states and don't regret spending the money at all. These boots have been very comfortable and rugged during the treks I have done in OZ. They take a little while to break in but once they are broken in they feel real good.

very solid

By:
March 2, 2009

Boots are put together very well. I have taken them over some very rough and rugged terrain. The bottoms of my feet have never hurt by the end of the day even on the 6 and 7 day trips. Feet stay very dry and warm. My only complaint is that they seem to take quite a bit of time to break in. This is one of the only boots I've owned that I actually got a blister while wearing even after logging over 300 miles on them. My dad owned the same pair and ended up taking them back after deciding that he would never be able to break them in even after several trips over about 15 months. All in all a very well made boot that performs at a high level just not quite as comfortable as a few others I've owned.

3 years and still kicking

By: Backcountry.com Employee

So after three years of wear. Great condition. Just make sure you use nikwax to protect these babies. I have gotten tons of extra use out of them by simply cleaning them regularly and coating them with water repellent.

best boot!

By:
June 23, 2009

I first bought the gv 500 thinking it's the same with a rubber toe cap..... nope not even close. way more leather in the upper make them really hard to break in and even then I didn't trust them. I now have the gv 200 and am loving life. I miss the toe cap because the leather gets beat up a bit, but whatever it's a way better boot. love the micro pully laces also and the tread is kinda cool too.

I love these boots!

By:
February 11, 2009

I have a couple pairs of Asolo boots. I swear these guys broke into my room while I was asleep and took molds of my feet, all their size 11 boots are made on this model. For me, the the fit is perfect! I can't say enough about these boots. I've used them for long multi-day trips, short hikes, snowshoeing and scrambling. My feet always feel great when I get back to the rig at the end of the day. My feet have stayed dry and never get hot in these boots. I hope they're still making this model when these wear out!

John Muir

By:
February 23, 2009

Some friends and I did half of the John Muir Trail last year . I loved the boots but still got blisters on my back heels . I wore the boots after the hike and now being bowed legged have wore a 3/16 wedge on the back heels of the boots . The boots are still in great condition , I would rather not pay $ 250.00 dollars for a new pair .
