Vasque Wasatch GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

Took no time to break-in. Excellent vertical support. The soles and uppers held up excellent against Nevada Limestone, which is known to destroy boots. These boots come with metal lace hooks, not the plastic one's Vasque has put on their XCR's. Looking for great boot, buy the Wasatch!

Awsome boot! I have been wearing my new hiking boots for about 4 weeks now. They broke in fast and very comfortable. I wear them indoors and outdoors. The tractiuon is awsome on the snow and ice, they keep my feet warm and breathing just right, and I can't get over the comfort and support. Great product and will expect many years of use and the price was good. I did try them on at Dick's Sporting Goods and they were priced about $160 there.

I'm only to the point of break-in so far and the only place I've used them is Colorado on a ski vacation and they seem to have plenty of support. My main reason for getting these boots was for side hilling on steep terrain and the support around the ankle feels like these were an excellent choice.

Even though I had to return these boots due to a separation of the Gore Tex lining, I went right back to another pair of them. After about 150+ miles on them, they were really broken in well. However, during a recent 40-mile AT hike, I started to have some problems with the right boot where the lining seemed to be separating from the outer ankle support area, causing an unfortunate rub/hotspot on my right ankle. The Wasatch GTX is a really great, comfortable boot - best I've ever had. I asked Backcountry about getting the boots replaced under warranty and they did without hesitation. Backcountry.com is a great place to shop, and I'll continue to buy from them in the future. No worries on what you get from them - they stand behind their merchandise 100%.

I have owned these boots for a couple years, and they have seen me through many hikes ranging from the desert to the Sierras. I have been very happy with these boots. They have been very comfortable and offered good support under the load of 60lb packs. I rated the boots a 4 due to the fact the sole on the right boot split completely across the ball of the foot, and a hole developed in the leather at the edge of the rubber that covers the toe of the boot. Overall it is an excellent boot that I have recommended to friends and colleagues.

This is a great midweight hiking boot. Very comfortable to wear - lots of great ankle support. Tried several other brands of boots due to the retail cost, but kept coming back to the Wasatch GTX because of how they felt. Local stores and other online gear shops had them for $160...this place had them for $98. What a deal!! Have put about 30+ miles on them in the past month with no problems. They should last a good long time.

I read about every shoe in this category, and read every comment too. I chose this boot because I wanted to use it for work at the ski mountain and for summer hiking. The inner sole is really comfy, totally waterproof outside. Did a 4,000ft "ice hike" first week I had them with no break-in time and didn't have a blister nor issue with tread. This is first time I ever spent a considerable amount of money on a hiking boot, I'm pretty satisfied.

I spent a long time in search of the right hiking boot for my needs. I was looking for the boot that I could hike anywhere in and also wear for everyday use. Online searching produced all kinds of results but I had questions and it was hard to really know which to choose. I was impressed by this website and the availability to chat live with a rep. These boots are the best I've ever had, and they are completely waterproof as advertised! They are also the most comfortable boots I've ever owned. The Sales rep made shopping online an awesome experience. Thanks.

Perfect all-around medium-duty boot that performs great on short and long trips alike. It is super comfortable, with a short break-in period and good ankle support. The Vibram sole gives this boot just enough stickiness and durability. All-in-all the Wasatch GTX is an AWESOME boot!
