Vasque Breeze XCR Hiking Boot - Women's

these are my first pair of nice hiking boots. I love them. I wear them when ever it is wet And every time I hike.Great support and traction. They are very comfortable.No blisters and no wet socks!

Good, comfortable boots. I didn't need any time to break them in. These fit me true to size and kept my feet completely dry while hiking in the snow or when I had to cross streams. I definitely recommend these.

I bought my Breeze XCR Hiking Boots for my hiking trip in California, so I got to test them in Yosemite and Mt. Whiteny. My first experience with them was that they were heavy and during my short 4-5 hours hikes they managed to both blister and wound my feet. Also they did not seem very breathable to me. On my hike to Mt. Whitney I used proper hiking socks and my experience changed. The boots were breathable and in 14 hours of hiking they only moderately accentuated my wounds. They have good grip on granite type rock, but I never got to test them in wet conditions. I would recommend these boots as long as you wear them with proper socks and you do not have very sensitive feet.

This boot has been nothing but fantastic in the short time I have owned it. Very comfortable, good support in the arch and ankle area, and it wasn't to hard to break it! I did have a little rubbing on the back of the heal, but I think that was more of a sock issue then boot. Very happy with purchase at this time!

I've had these boots for 3 years and have put many miles on them from pouring rain to dry hot days. I've even enjoyed them winter hiking and they are the boots I use to snowshoe. They are an all around great boot for all conditions. I use them for day hikes and backpacking trips and find them to be extremely comfortable, and amazingly dry. I have completely submerged my foot into streams and puddles and have dry feet. I've never had a blister or a hot spot, and I backpack at about 15 miles per day. These have a roomy toe box, and fit my wide foot well.

I've worn these boots several times so far. They’ve been worn winter camping, hiking 6+ hours twice, once in off-and-on rain. I have fairly wide and sensitive feet. Often, shoes will not be comfortable. These were from the beginning. It took me a few times to break them in. I have a narrow, somewhat bony ankle and the back of the boot rubbed the back of my ankle a bit at first, nothing that moleskin and tying the shoelace one notch lower couldn’t remedy. Considering each time I’ve worn them I’ve really put them to the test, I’d say they’ve been great. After hiking 7 hrs. or so in off-and-on rain, crossing muddy & wet areas, I expected my feet to be wet. My socks were bone dry. I was very pleased. When I wore them camping, they stayed warm until nightfall. I could then feel a slight draft on the top parts of my feet. I didn’t mind, it was probably about 30° and dropping at that point. I’d rather have a shoe that can breathe a bit when I’m hiking. They are flexible enough to be comfortable. I’ve only worn them once with a heavy backpack, but it wasn’t for much more than an hour. They seemed supportive enough though I can’t comment on what a longer backpacking hike might feel like. I would recommend them. My fussy feet were happy and they met my expectations.
