Hi, I have been looking at the Wind River US size 11/ UK size 10. Are the Yellowstone similar in height to the W/River? and are the sizes and fit the same? Do you sell the W/River boots, if so what price delivered to Australia.
Regards, Ken

I have a response for John Connelly, President of OBOZ: I own three pairs of your hiking boots. I have hiked hundreds of miles in them along the Blue Ridge and along the Potomac in the D.C. area. I won't buy any other brand of boots. I like the hard rubber soles that protect my feet and grip wet rocks when I cross streams. I appreciate the wrapped effect that the high rises give me when I'm hopping bolders or traversing hills. They are durable and keep my feet dry. I alter the lacing, depending on how far I've traveled and the expansion of my feet. It always helps to adjust your geat, according to the terrain and the condition of your foot structure. Your boots integrate smart engineering and a hiker's design. I wish I had them in Iraq! I'll need them when I deploy to Afghanistan soon. Will you come out with a military desert version? All the best, CAPT D.J. Smith, USN

Hi Ken, John Connelly here, president of Oboz. Wind Rivers are available from Kathmandu in Australia and New Zealand. They are a bit higher than the Yellowstone. The Wind River is more boot in general but still light weight.
