Question... I'm looking for a light boot for 2-5 day hikes w/ mid-weight pack (30 lbs, +/- 5 lbs). I have a pair of heavy-weight Vasque boots that I dearly love, but they are just a bit much for tromping on the AT (or similar SE location) during the summer. Currently I'm considering the following boots: Salomon Explorer GTX, Vasque Breeze GTX, Merrell Outland Mid GTX, and La Sportiva Onix GTX-XCR. I have wider-than-usual feet and a high arch. Any recommendations?

Any of those boots would work well for what you're looking to do. With your foot specs I would stay away from the La Sportiva's as they're really for narrower feet. I would pay particular attention to the Vasque and Merrell boots. Both should fit your feet well and are going to be plenty comfy.....not overkill. Hope that helps.
