Pisgah Boot - Men's

I love these boots

I love these boots! I've been wearing Altra Lone Peaks for years and was desperate to find a waterproof solution with the same zero drop and wide toe box. So happy to have found it. I've got about 75 miles of hiking in my pair of Pisgahs now (and with a quick brush, they look brand new). They're a little stiff right out of the box. It took a bit to break them in, but they're extremely comfortable now. I've hiked on rock, roots, dirt, mud, snow, ice, slush, and soggy meadows. The traction and grip are great in all conditions, and my feet are always dry. I wear a 10.5 Lone Peak, and following the advice, I went up and started with an 11 Pisgah. Those were too big. I returned them and went down to a 10.5, which fits perfect with a medium to thick sock. Because of the comfort and the way they look, I bought a second pair (10.5) to wear with my jeans around town. I love my boots. Highly recommended.

PNW

Fit well out of the box, true to size. Have worn them mostly around town and for yard work. Live in rainy PNW and they’ve kept my feet dry!

Grateful!

I've used it several times

These boots are great! I use them for my work as a groundskeeper. In rain and snow they keep my feet dry and warm. Hopping in and out of a golf cart or walking all day, they are comfortable and not clunky. I am so grateful for the vegan feature too! Thank you Astral for these boots! Half a size larger fit perfectly for me.

My Second Pair!

Super comfortable and lightweight. As always with Astral, grip is exceptional!

Amazing boot

I have had these boots for over a year and I wear them regularly for work and for hiking. They were comfortable right out of the box. I put them on for the first time and hiked McAfee's Knob with no issues whatsoever. The water proofing is great and is still hanging in there. I have had several other types of hiking boots and none have lasted as well as these have. I will certainly get another pair when and if these run out of gas.

Quality product but…

The boots are very well manufactured. The quality in the material is impressive. After wearing Altra lone peak mids for years I would say the Pisgah’s seem over engineered compared to Altra’s. Which is good thing! Alta’s just don’t hold up for long. I work a job that requires black boots. It is hard to find a boot that has a wide toe box and zero drop. I figured I would try these since Alta doesn’t have a black color way this year. I was very impressed with the Pisgah’s quality although the toe box feels a bit more cramped when comparing the two. The Alstrals fit more snug all the way around my foot. After two days of wearing them I severely sprained my ankle. Not blaming the Pisgah’s I just think it’s because they are more stiff and not as flexible around the ankle. I would recommend this company just not sure if the boots are gonna work long term for me.

Ok but don’t stay waterproof

I’ve had these for two years. used during the winter and for day hiking. They are fairly comfortable and wear well. However, they have more cushioning than I’d like and the waterproofing wears out after about a year.

High-Quality Boots

Absolutely worth it. The sole being modeled after my favorite shoe (TR1), I have no complaints. While the quality of other large brands continues to decline, Astral continues to make stand-out products that deliver what they say and withstand real-world abuse. Please keep up the good work, or I'll be forced to go barefoot.

Excellent Shoe

Very comfortable and versatile shoe. You won't find another shoe brand with grippier rub. I love the confidence and safety the grip provides.

Love my Pisgah in the snow

Very comfortable, stylish and perfect for wet and snowy conditions.
