Item #VSQ0021 | 80 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Boot for all occasions

By Ranked #22 - Men's Backpacking Boots July 7, 2009

I have the 9.5 in black. the fit is pretty good. I usually wear a 9.5 in most brands. I maybe should have gone a half size smaller because the one piece leather did stretch quite a bit. Took a while to break in but now they feel like a tennis shoe. I have used these a lot. Climbed all over mountains and even snowshoed in them. I find that my feet have never hurt in these even after a long day. Really like the support and sturdy feeling these boots have. Oh, and the waterproofing has never let me down even after 2 years of abuse.

there is a lot of negative talk about these and how they used to be better. I am pretty sure I have the newer ones and I do not have the same complaints. I have not tried the older ones so I don't have anything to compare to.
