I'm looking for a good backpacking shoe/boot. Could others answer the following about Newports:
1. Could you hike all day in these?
2. If so, how much does your pack weigh?
3. How do they handle hot sweaty summer hikes?

Great light hikers. These are a very comfortable boot, you could easily walk or stand in them all day. They ventilate well, and aren't too tight around the ankle, so summer wear would be accomidated well. The sole (and the fit) is wide, so they are a very stable shoe. The uppers might be a bit lightly constructed for heavy pack or very technical trail, but for light to modurate weighted packs these shoes are champs.
