Ranked #323 - Women's Hiking Boots
September 14, 2009
I ordered the mud/flora hiking boots for a trip to Costa Rica in anticipation of ATV/ziplining and a volcano hike. Based upon the reviews of these shoes, I ordered 1/2 size larger and they fit perfectly (over lightweight hiking socks also purchased from Backcountry). I didn't have time to wear these before my trip to break them in and in an abundance of caution, I packed blister packs in the event that that was a bad idea. These shoes fit so well and were SO comfortable on the first wearing. I wore them through waist-high water and mud and my feet remained dry (although the boots were muddy). After a 5 hour ATV/ziplinig adventure, my feet were comfortable. Also, a 15 hour trip to an active volcano gave them the second test and again, they were comfortable and excellent on the volcanic rock trail. What a great hiking boot!!!
