Why We Like The Talus AT UltraDry Hiking Boot
The Vasque Women's Talus AT UltraDry Hiking Boot is backed by UltraDry waterproofing to fend off raindrops, snowflakes, and muddy trails all year long. Its nubuck leather upper is extremely durable for seasons of use, and there are mesh panels to ventilate breathability. Underfoot, the Talus has a dual-density footbed and a molded midsole underneath for responsive cushioning. A TPU shank adds stable support on technical terrain, and Vibram's Mega Nuasi rubber gives the sole enhanced traction on slippery surfaces.

Walked across USA in these!
I had these Vasque talus for 7 years. I hike almost every day, and calculated that my old German Shepherd dog and I have walked enough miles to cross the USA. The tread on the bottom was finally smoothed out, so I had to throw then away, but it made me so sad, I kept the laces for sentimental reasons.

2 years and 130-140 miles later here’s my opinion
I decided to randomly try this brand and to my surprised they were comfy right off the bat. For reference I have a narrow foot and low arch. I bought them, didn’t break them in at all, and hiked 30 miles in 3 days without ANY issue. Probably about 40-50 miles in one of the shoe lace holders broke. These boots were used in Michigan, Oregon, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Wisconsin, and all throughout Minnesota. I just got back from a 16 mile hiking trip in two days and I have blisters on my big toe. I had the worst foot and joint (hips and knees) pain I have ever had while hiking. In a little over two years of me having them I put about 130-140 miles on them (based on my Apple Watch tracker which I have found to be more accurate than my hiking partners watches she’s had over the years). With a quick google search many references state a good pair should last you 500-900 miles or 10 miles each week for a year. But none the less these were great boots for the most part. I did at lot of hiking on pretty tough terrain so that definitely can play a role but who knows. I mainly also do all my hiking in spring and fall. All I know is I think it’s time to retire these and try something new after all that pain. All in all they are great for your average hiking person with a narrow foot.

Please make an 11.5/12!!!!
These were my first real hiking boots when I was 18 and I wore them for years. I love the Vibram sole and the support at the ankle. the grip is amazing! The only problem I have it that my feet grew!!! I'm an 11.5 or 12 now and they are just too tight (although I wore them for a year after realizing and I STILL didn't get any blisters and my feet were almost comfortable). If these shoes are ever made in a larger size I would buy them in a heartbeat.

Best hiking boots
I bought my first pair of vasque talus from scheels in 2020. I've done miles and miles of hiking in Rocky mountain national, Aspen, glacier National, Yellowstone, grand tetons, and just on the trails in wisconsin for the last 3 years and they're still in great shape! Here to buy a second pair to have ready to go just in case especially with a trip to the national parks in Utah and Arizona coming up. They are true to size (I'm usually a 9.5 and that's what fit), keeps my foot and ankle stable, and keep my square toes comfortable without pinching them

Sole fell off hiking 10 mi; older barely used.
We purchase these vasque boots years ago, but had not used them until recently. After walking 10 miles up an incline totally 250 feet, the soles fell off both boots.

Problem with the toe protector
I bought these boots in January 2022, started wearing them in April, nevertheless, the rubber toe protector is too small, it should overlap a little bit more on the toes because it wears too fast. I have not used them extensively and as of July, the rubber part started to lift. I think it is a design problem. Otherwise, they are confortable, waterproof, but the sole could be more gripping. I recommend that you extend the rubber part and they would be perfect! I don't know if they are still under warranty but if yes, I would like another pair!!!

Faultly impermeability
Wet feet on many hiking trips! They are not impermeable; I'm quite disappointed

Not a replacement for Vasque Mantra
- Size Bought:
- 8.5
- Height:
- 5' 5"
- Weight:
- 125
These are being billed as a replacement for the Vasque Mantra but I found them to fit slightly narrower in in the toe box and have slightly less volume overall. That could be b/c they are a boot but I could not find the low top version of the Talus in stock in my size anywhere. The boot is nicely constructed and I wish it worked for me but sadly they are going back. I normally wear an 8 in the Mantra and sized up to an 8.5 for these b/c waterproof shoes never stretch out/wear in like the ones without waterproofing. These fit snug, like an 8.

Vasque gave up on quality.
I tried to get a new pair of Vasque hikers since they have been my LIFE for the past 12 years. I had my friend convinced they are the best, and she almost bought them, but then I tried it on too... I felt like they erased any ergonomics or quality from these shoes, I should just wear a plastic milk jug on my feet. I could not imagine trusting them ever again on a trail. I almost cried right there in the store. I have to move on to another brand after that experience.
