Great boot!

These things are sweet. I'd definitely recommend a good break in period. I broke mine in the fun way....50 miles on the AT with a 45+ pound pack. Got a couple blisters on the back of the heels, but nothing major. Make sure you lace them up tight.

Just got back from a 16 mile overnight trip in Dolly Sods Wilderness Area in WV. The trails were pretty much just mud/water. Heavy rains overnight made for even more fun. My feet never got wet, except for sweating, which is to be expected. At times, I was standing in water past the ankles and nary a drop got into the boots. Traction is good as well. Never slipped except in the worst mud conditions in which any boot would slip. Excellent!

Very pleased with these boots. Buy 'em!
