Vasque Sundowner GTX Backpacking Boot - Men's

Vasque Sundowner GTX Backpacking Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 July 24, 2009

Well, I've always liked Vasque products. I've gone through two pairs of the Sundowner back in my college/NOLS trip days and really loved them. I lost the last pair about 5 years ago and never had the chance to replace them until I bought a pair for an upcoming med-school hiking trip. I'm not sure what, if anything has changed at Vasque but these boots aren't the same as the ones I had in the past. The leather feels cheaper and the stitching seems much less precise. The style of the top of the boot also seems much less clean than I remember it. It looks much more like a generic knock-off than the real thing... if that makes any sense. The details just don't seem as nice/careful as they were on my old pairs. Maybe I'm just getting old. The boot wears about as well, which I suppose is all that really matters. Anyway, I have no idea if this is a reflection of their boots generally but I have to say I'm a little disappointed. Probably will try something else next time.
