the standard

I've had my Sundowners since 1989 - and they are still holding up great. Super ankle support in talus areas, and annual mink oil treatments keep them waterproof. I work as a naturalist in the southern appalachians - have not seen terrain they can't handle here - or on our annual trips to the Rockies. They're a bit heavy and not my first choice for level trails - but great when you carry a load on slopes. My husband is a diabetic - so he really has to make sure he has good shoes - got him a pair for his last birthday and he loves them too. Just a great boot!
