At first, I thought this boot was great! First tried at home, walking around the house for a week, then worn to work for 2 weeks. Next, an 11-mile hike in steep terrain, and despite a couple of hot spots, I still thought they were ok. Then on a 3-day 30-some-mile backpack trip in montane/alpine terrain. After day two, I refused to wear them any longer. The sole’s stiffness did not loosen - there was little flex, and so I had pain in my toes. Five days later, I still have "numb toe syndrome". I do have pronating feet with weak arches. Replacing factory insoles with Shock Doctors did not correct the problem - bad feet could be part of the issue. The boots do have good support and are waterproof - my feet didn't sweat excessively. The braking system works well on scree-y terrain. I will, however, be searching for another boot.
