Vasque Wasatch GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

Wasatch GTXs Replaced (with same boot)

By Ranked #2 - Men's Backpacking Boots October 11, 2007

Even though I had to return these boots due to a separation of the Gore Tex lining, I went right back to another pair of them.

After about 150+ miles on them, they were really broken in well. However, during a recent 40-mile AT hike, I started to have some problems with the right boot where the lining seemed to be separating from the outer ankle support area, causing an unfortunate rub/hotspot on my right ankle.

The Wasatch GTX is a really great, comfortable boot - best I've ever had. I asked Backcountry about getting the boots replaced under warranty and they did without hesitation.

Backcountry.com is a great place to shop, and I'll continue to buy from them in the future. No worries on what you get from them - they stand behind their merchandise 100%.
