Great Boots!

I have to say these are the most comfortable boots I have very worn. I had previously worn a pair of Merrell Explorers that were 5 years old yet still gave me blisters and uncomfortable feet at the end of the day. My boots arrived on a Friday and it just happened to be I was leaving to go on a weekend trip that weekend. I figured I would wear these at least for the first mile to get them broken in then switch to my old boots which I had brought with me. To my surprise I wore these brand new, unbroken in boots the entire 3 day trip without any blisters. I did develop a couple of hot spots but nothing else. With my old boots I would have gotten blisters and had very uncomfortable feet. These boots were so comfortable I didn't even wear my sandals around camp. I would highly recommend these boots to anyone looking for a lightweight, waterproof, comfortable boot.
