For everyone complaining about the arch support: FYI, no high-end boots come with insoles you should EVER trust out of the box. Some La Sportiva's come with only a piece of cardboard. You should ALWAYS purchase quality insoles for any decent boot you buy. (Keep in mind that this may affect sizing, btw.)

That's a good point. I believe that many of the gear testers at Backpacker Mag. say they don't test boots with the factory insoles, and instead replace them with high-end inserts from companies like Superfeet.I tried on a pair today in the store today and they felt about as comfortable as my 8 year old Vasques, but I'll definitely be replacing the insoles when I man up and buy them.You're correct about the "included" mfg. insoles. Try these. They're very comfortable not matter what load you're carrying:http://www.backcountry.com/store/SFT0003/Superfeet-Trim-To-Fit-Green-Insole.html
