Asolo TPS 520 GV Boot - Men's

Item #ASO0023 | 6 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Good stuff

By Backcountry.com Employee September 10, 2009

I didn't spend any time breaking these boots in, but figured I wouldn't be backpacking on my first trip out, so the consequences were minimal. After several days of day hiking in rough, wet, conditions, my feet were totally happy and blister free. So, I was impressed by their out of the box comfort and sturdy feel. I also like their classic all leather look. I felt very comfortable jogging down scree fields, and bushwacking in places I couldn't see where my foot is landing. I have had trouble with other boots because of my narrow foot width and chose these because of other positive reviews from narrow footed folks. These Asolo's turned out to be a great purchase and I imagine I'll be covering a lot of ground in them for years to come.
