Not for hiking, more for Mountaineering

I tried to break these boots in for two days with no luck. Just too stiff and probably too much boot for what I was looking for (i.e. hut tours, approaches with skis on my back). The tongue insert is also a bit unusual and I couldn't get it to fit right. But, feet are unique and it just could be this particular boot wasn't a good fit for me. All the other reviews seem very positive so keep that in mind. Returning them was a snap!
