Write your question here...Stynger or Attiva? I'm a warm weather hiker...Canyonlands, Grand Canyon, California, Hawaii, that sort of thing. I don't want a warm boot. Any thoughts out there?

I also do quite a bit of desert hiking/backpacking. As long as it's not above 100-105 you should be fine with the rubber not separating. Unfortunately, the rubber that the sole is made for isn't the best, and it wears very rapidly. Otherwise, the boot itself is definitely not too hot to wear in hot/humid or hot/dry conditions. In fact, I would recommend it because I'd rate the stability-to-weight and stability-to-warmth ratios are quite high.

Just came back from the Grand Canyon and wore my Styngers. Down South Kaibab, night at the bottom, and up Bright Angel. Granted it is summer and sweltering... but the rubber has started to separate from the sole of the boot. Don't know if this is due to the heat or a manufacturing defect. I am going to try and return these boots as they only have about 27 miles of real hiking on them to include Kauai's Awaawapuhi Trail. The good news is no blisters.
