4th Pair Keep Em Coming NF

By Ranked #1032 - Men's Hiking Shoes April 10, 2009

Fourth pair of Boa equipped North Face shoes, the newest pair appears to be as good or better than the others as they have refined the lace eyelets so as not to bind as they are tightened. I've worn the daylights out of all of them in all kinds of conditions and have never ever had any problems others seem to have with the Boa system. I think the key things is not to twist the knob until you lose feeling in your foot lol I certainly hope that North Face not abandon this system, it's innovative and just like most new ideas will improve. I always order one full size larger with NF shoes and boots as they seem to run a touch smaller than New Balance or Nike. I've had the hedgehog sole on a pair of the taller NF shoes they will track dirt more than others but they are Vibran and will wear like iron and by having Goretex makes this shoe an all around winner.
