Good Shoes

By aabaker10 Ranked #229 - Women's Hiking Shoes April 27, 2010

I really like my new Vasque shoes! My only complaint is that my size is borderline too small, so they become uncomfortable when I walk down really steep hills or run down any type of downgrade. They are not running shoes though, so I don't find it to be a huge issue.

When I first put my Mantras on, I was a bit concerned about the edge around my ankle. It comes up high at an odd angle. I was certain it would run and give me blisters. Much to my surprise, this did not happen. I have gone a few 2-3 hour hikes with them and I have been wearing them to work where I am on my feet often.

I got my shoes from Steep and Cheap for a decent discount and they were well worth it. I think if I could try them on and get a pair that fit my foot exactly, I would pay full price for them. So far, they seem like they will hold up for a really long time. :-)
