Love them
Had mine now for 5 years and they have been all around the word. Done quite a bit of mountain climbin in New Zealand in these boots, Climbed Mt Cook in them. Even on the rough shrap rock in NZ they held up and still look great. Can be worn as a bush boot as well and even keep my feet warm at -20 temps in Canada. They do take awhile to break in about 3 months wearing them every 3rd day or so, but if you can get through that then there worth it.
10/10
