I've had them since the begining of the summer and have had pretty good luck with them so far. The sizing was dead on for me. Fast & easy to lace up. They are comfortable to wear on short treks and kayaking. Its nice that you can fold down the heel and slip them on real quick, it came in handy late at night while I was camping. I have worn them for a full day treking around Acadia in ME and they did ok. unfortunetly they don't dry that fast and get a little uncomfortable bare foot on a full day of walking. I also wish the mesh worked a little better, I've had to take them off after walking around in streams to pull some pretty decent pebbles out. I'll take the bad with the good though because they are very versatile. All in all they are decent shoes!

Love it, love it, love it! I wear this just about everywhere, from fall hikes in VT to going out on the town on those cooler nights. I even bring it to the mountian during the late riding season to keep warm. Sized well, length good. A big fan of North Face gear!

I've had them for one season and am pretty impressed. I felt like I was taking a gamble with the boa lacing system, But after the first use I was sold. Takes 1/2 the time to put on then the standard boots and don't loosen up during the day. The size fits pretty true. Once they packed in they felt great. Very confortable. I like the amount of flex i get out of them, not to much not to little. I ride from glades to open trail with all around comfort. Solid!

Built Well

The North Face Heron 33 3-Person 3-Season Tent

The North Face Heron 33 3-Person 3-Season Tent

Rating for this product: 4 August 7, 2009

I have only used it once, but was pretty impressed. I got the foot print and gear loft along with the tent which I would recommend. its quick and easy to set-up alone. The footprint adds a decent dry space in the vestibules for traffic and gear storage, which is nice. I did run into some pretty hard rain a few times during my week long trip and didn't have any issues.

My only concerns with this tent is you do get condensation on the lower inside of the rain-fly, but this is only a problem when you are getting in and out of the tent. It also is way to small for 3 adults. But all in all I would give it an A-. Light to carry for a 3 person tent and built well!
