Awsome boot

By Igor Bekker Ranked #929 - Men's Hiking Boots March 16, 2009

I bought this boot for Kili trip. This boot is bullet proof. Rain, mud, snow it took it all. The boot stayed dry. My summit day was insane. After reaching the summit in 8 hours, I ran down to the last camp going through mud and snow (1.15min). Resting in camp for 1 hour we descended all the way back to the Hotel in Tanzania arriving by 7pm. That's 17 hours without taking the boot off. I was wearing a liner sock and a wool sock. During the hike in lower elevation the temp was around 90 degrees, and my feet were burning. On the summit I must admit my feet got a bit cold. After the long day I thought I had blisters for sure as I couldnt move my toes thats how much they were burning. After taking the boot off I was shocked, not a single blister or a scratch. As far as the fit, I am 6'1 with size 11 wide foot. The boot it a bit wide for me, but I like that. Prior to the Kili trip i wore the boot while running on the treadmill. Honestly, i dont see a difference, the boot was perfect from the start.
