Montrail Helium GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

Montrail Helium GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 2 July 11, 2008

I've taken these boots out on two hikes in colorado, where the terrain is rocky. My first impression was that these boots have great dry traction and they are comfortable. There is not enough padding in the tongue, so when you cinch the laces tight on a steep downhill to improve your control, the laces bite into your ankles. My other big problem is that after just two outings the rubber sole is separating at the heel on both boots. The rubber is glued to a foam layer that adds nice cushioning, but sole appears not to bind very well. I'm going to try to glue them & hope for the best. Bottom line is that these are OK day hikers, but don't trust them on an overnight backpacking trip.
