Vasque Sundowner GTX Backpacking Boot - Men's

Vasque Sundowner GTX Backpacking Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 2 July 24, 2008

My first pair of hiking boots ever was my dad's pair, size 12, and they were 13 years old. They performed AMAZINGLY even with hardly any tread left on the sole. They had soul. I now work for the park service (2 years later) and got a pair of sundowners when I was hired. I'm wearing them right now. They suck! When Vasque moved to Chinese production, everything stayed the same except the QUALITY OF THE LEATHER. Whereas before it was typical, flat, non glossy genuine leather that skuffe up, it's now (supposedly genuine) leather that looks and feels like plastic or suede. It squeaks and is thin and is so much like plastic that it doesn't even absorb shoe polish/protectant. It's the epitomy of a small local company selling out for more profit, less quality, and no intrinsic value. Sorry, but I'd go for some Asolo's instead, they're the new Vasque....
