Montrail Torre GTX Hiking Boot - Men's - 2007

Whether you're bagging fourteener's or backpacking to your favorite lake in the Wind Rivers, the Montrail Torre Backpacking Boot is in it for the long haul. The Torre Boot is burly and comfortable to keep your journey free from foot pain. This Montrail boot's seam-free heel lining and molded foam heel pocket ensure a proper fit so you don't have to worry about sloppy-fitting boots when you're roping up on Wall Street. The heel yoke is attached to the lacing system so you can dial your boot's fit, and the waterproof Gore-Tex lining blocks moisture and breathes like mad to keep your feet comfortable and dry if you're crossing streams or hiking in hotter temperatures.

Bottom Line: The Montrail Torre GTX is a lightweight boot that's not only extraordinarily comfortable, but worthy of a serious outdoors excursion.

A good boot

By:
June 29, 2007

I think that the Torre is just an all around good piece of backpacking equipment. I use it whenever I can on day hikes, weekend excursions, or monthlong trips. It has lasted me a year without any signs of wear besides the laces which I would immediately replace to save problems on the trail. The pros of this boot are its unbeatable water resistance and stability. However I have found this boot slightly heavier and less breathable than other less expensive boots I've tried. I would highly suggest the Torre as an all purpose boot for most backpackers even though it is heavy and unbreathable.

Good, waterproof boots

By:
June 7, 2009

Overall I'm really happy with these boots. At first they seemed a bit heavy and not too aesthetically appealing, but they've grown on me in every way. I've taken some long hikes over rough terrain and my feet were the only things NOT hurting. I think the relatively high weight counterbalanced by great performance. And although I usually have mixed feelings about gore-tex in boots (and these can get a bit muggy), in wet conditions they work. I was so confident I even had a small group of friends pee on my feet. My toes were bone dry. Highly recommended.

Well made, Comfortable.

By:

So far so good. These seem to have better comfort and traction and are holding up better than the Vasque Wasatch GTX boots that I bought just one year ago.

No Durability

By:
January 28, 2008

I got these boots to use for a month long backpacking trip in the N. Talkeetnas of Alaska. They held up great while I was training here in Georgia. But after only a couple of weeks the boots were starting to separate at the synthetic part and the leather part. It got so bad that dirt and water was filling the sides everyday. They wore great and never hurt my feet I just wish they were more durable. Montrail did send me a new pair free of charge however.

The wider last boot is usually advertised as Montrail Torre GTX Wide, this should be the normal last.--------------------------------------------This is the standard last. If your foot is a 'D' width or more... I would consider the Torre GTX Wide. Hope this helps!

G-R-E-A-T BOOT!

By:
October 6, 2008

I'm on my second pair of these boots and when I wear this pair out I'll go for the third, that is if they haven't messed the fit up with the "new" improved model. I have a narrow foot and these boots fit like a...well, like a glove...but they're boots...but they fit like a glove...get it? I bought a pair for back packing and liked them so much I bought a pair for work also. Believe me when i say I've beat the dog snot outa them and they still ROCK! I love these boots almost as much as moms cooking but they don't taste quite as good...

I like them!

By:
December 3, 2008

These shoes are amazing!
They are very heavy but that's only because they are built with the toughest materials.
I did take about 10 days of hiking until I broke them in, but once they got comfortable and blisters were no issue, I began enjoying them.
I recently hiked with them in Colombia for a six day trek. It rained every day and we crossed many rivers. Though the waterproofing function was of no help with this much water, the grip of the vibram sole was unparalleled by any other shoe I have ever owned.
The double stitches on all the parts is very rugged and the material itself, as well.
The only complaint so far is that the front of the shoe has a thin rubber layer that is quick to peal. This happened with my friends shoe as well but once I epoxy-ed it back, it was never a problem again.

+ these boots don't stretch much, if you are a wide footed guy, get the wide boot!

Comfort and Durability

By:
September 19, 2008

I have had these boots for over a year and they are still my favorite boots. I don't have too wide of a foot, but I use the wide size and they fit perfect. Great for hiking or casual use. I have worn these on 4-6 day backpacking trips and never have had any blisters. I also use these for walking around town when it is snowing; they seem to keep my feet warm, even with only a normal thin pair of socks. The Gore-Tex lining is a definite plus!

Solid Boot, Comfortable, Bit Heavy and Stiff

By:
March 5, 2009

Despite the fact that these boots are a bit heave and stiff, and I did need to break my foot into the boot, I highly recommend these boots. I have not had any waterproof or wear issues over the past 9 month. They are great for playing in the mud or the snow. A lot of bang for the buck, especially since I picked them up off of steep and cheap.

Wide feet not an issue

By:
May 4, 2009

I have very wide feet, and have had problems in the past with shoes and boots being too tight to be comfortable. Not these shoes, they are just snug enough to be comfortable and give me the support I want without pinching or putting pressure in weird spots. I've taken them on several three and four day backpacking trips and have loved their durability, comfort, and weight. I recommend these boots to anyone, but especially someone with wide feet.

2008 version is way better

By:
August 28, 2008

I tried the earlier version of the Torre GTX and it just did not fit at all. Tried the new '08 version and it fits me great! (A very different fit than the old version; now much roomier in the arch and forefoot.) I've taken these boots out a few times in the Catskills and Adirondacks, through mud, swamps, bogs, over rocks, through blowdowns and ankle-deep stream crossings. No wet socks or blisters yet. It's a pretty darned good boot. Very good ankle support. I wear them with OR Crocodile gaiters and they're very watertight. They are a bit heavy and their soles are a bit soft, though. I like a stiffer sole to assist in scrambling over boulders, steep ledges, etc. The boots seem to be holding up pretty well, but only time will tell. I did notice a superficial tear in the synthetic rand near my left pinkie toe. Doesn't seem to be leaking moisture. I don't expect these boots to last as long as my Italian Norwegian-welted, all-leather boots -- but I do expect them to be a lot more water-resistant. At any rate, so far I like 'em!

Great Boot

By:
July 21, 2008

Worn these boots for the first time right out of the box on a Mount Washington backpacking trip up Tuckerman's Ravine and over to the huts. They were very comfortable, no blisters, and kept my feet dry. As for longevity we shall see. I would say buy them if you can get them for less than asking price.

Great Hiking Boots

By:
March 9, 2009

Tough hiking boot that fits perfectly. Great for wet and cold weather like what we always have here in Washington. I have also wore them in the office and they are really comfortable. Only draw down are the laces, I had to changed them after only two months of used.

OK, but far from great

By:
August 25, 2008

I've had these boots for over a year, and I've punished them to say the least. I've taken them on the FLT in New York, as well as in the Adirondack High Peaks. Overall, these boots perform best in light-duty hiking, and should be paired up with heavyily cushioned socks to aid in comfort. As for waterproofness...well let's just say they hold up under short-term wet conditions, but in an all-day downpour, you'll have to change socks. They offer great support for rocky trails and summits, but comfort can become an issue if your socks aren't up to snuff. I would suggest SmartWool Trekking and Mountaineering socks for these (or any) boots. As far as backpacking goes...look elsewhere. If you're on a weekend excursion they might hold up, but for extended trips with a full pack I would look elsewhere. You'll need much more comfort within the boot than the sock can account for, and better shock absorbtion will be necessary for carrying heavy loads.

Hi-Tec makes a relatively inexpensive boot that has worked really well. The Vasque Summit GTX is a more expensive ($200) option. The only difference is that the Vasques have Gore-Tex and are $100 more expensive. The Hi-Tecs perform admirably and I've never had a problem with them.

No Regrets!

By:
March 5, 2009

I bought these boots about 6 months ago and I haven't looked back. I have used them for some pretty serious winter activities and they are perfect for that kind of thing. However, they're also great for hardcore hiking in the summer months. Before the snow fell, I took them on several technical treks and they really impressed me! After all this, they still look like new! For the money, I'm not sure you'll find a better boot anywhere. Get them now!

Curry Limestone wouldn't have been my first choice for color, but at the price who cares about making a fashion statement. The boots were comfortable right out of the box. Very satisfied. The delivery was exceptionally quick- all as advertised.
