Excellent first impressions

Length is true to size, perhaps a tad on the long side. Fits a narrow heel and lower instep well. A little higher volume in the mid to forefoot, but good for low to medium volume feet. Forefoot width higher than average, but not wide - definitely a D width. Toes taper but more spacious than most, so people with more rounded toes might appreciate this boot. Seem to work well for my low volume feet with think ankles/narrow heels but a wider forefoot. Lock my heels in like no other, rigid where needed but good forefoot flex. Built solidly but not too heavy. Outstanding outsole lugs. Stock insole is fantastic, moderate arch support, perfect for my medium arches that find superfeet green arches a little too high. Have yet to take them on a hike, but confident they will take a thrashing.

Order your measured size in a mid-weight sock.
