I like them!

These shoes are amazing!
They are very heavy but that's only because they are built with the toughest materials.
I did take about 10 days of hiking until I broke them in, but once they got comfortable and blisters were no issue, I began enjoying them.
I recently hiked with them in Colombia for a six day trek. It rained every day and we crossed many rivers. Though the waterproofing function was of no help with this much water, the grip of the vibram sole was unparalleled by any other shoe I have ever owned.
The double stitches on all the parts is very rugged and the material itself, as well.
The only complaint so far is that the front of the shoe has a thin rubber layer that is quick to peal. This happened with my friends shoe as well but once I epoxy-ed it back, it was never a problem again.

+ these boots don't stretch much, if you are a wide footed guy, get the wide boot!
