I like boots!

This boot is really nice. It took only a few trips to break in. For short mountaineering trips they killed it. On some of the longer trips they gave me a little trouble. I definitely suggest getting some footbeds for these bad boys. I've got some gnarly blisters, but footbeds made a big difference. I slipped in a river in the middle of winter camping and my feet stayed warm and comfy. Wow. Great boots, I like boots.
