Great shoes
By Todd Cox
October 21, 2003
It became rapidly apparent that these shoes were made with wide feet in mind. This meant that they took 3rd party inserts beautifully. Field Tests in Escalante indicate that they feel nice on your feet, breathe well, and won't protect your feet from knee-deep pools of reddish muck. The stiffness of them took a little adjustment, but once they were broken in and I got used to them, I found them super nice. Traction on the slickrock and sandstone was also top notch. This is a really great pair of hiking shoes for those of us who don't like the wieght and movement restriction of high tops.
