Fantastic boots

By GeoJane42 Ranked #189 - Rock Climbing Shoes August 19, 2009

I have the women's version of these boots and they are absolutely fantastic. Lightweight, comfortable, warmish, sturdy.... very happy feet! Wore my hiking boots out last year but can't be bothered to replace them because these are so comfortable I've even been using them for the less technical trips. They have never leaked and I've only been cold a couple of times and only when I was stuck standing around on a long belay with my feet in ice and snow. Even with a heavy pack my feet have been comfortable in these boots. They aren't too bulky which is nice for climbing. Have used them on everything from easy hikes to 5.7 rock routes in crampons to ice to loose crappy Cascade volcanoes and they've never let me down. I have wide feet and was surprised to find that I had to actually go a whole size DOWN in these boots.
