I'm of two minds about the Distance. I am a tough fit - narrow at the heel, wide in the forefoot with a couple of hammer toes from years of running, etc., and this shoe accommodates that pretty well. It has a roomy toe box and doesn't pinch at the forefoot flex point, which has been a problem with other shoes. So far, so good. However, the shoe has even less stability and support below the ankle than other low-cuts. Furthermore, the heel seems to be a little higher than other shoes I've tried on. I have pretty strong ankles, but I've noticed a real tendency for the foot to roll out from under me when I hit a rock or an irregularity in the pavement (haven't yet worn them on the trail). I'm pretty sure-footed but I've stumbled several times and actually fallen once, when the shoe rolled at an uneven point in the pavement. While I like the fit and the firmness, I'm leery of using the shoe for anything more than relatively flat trail-walking. This is definitely not an approach shoe or to be used on moraine or uneven ground.

Toe cap rubs small toes -
After wearing these around the house for a couple of hours, I took them on a test hike of 2 miles. The built in toe cap caused blisters on my left foot. I sent them back to Zappos.

Absolutely the best shoes Ive owned. I have had the boots very similar to these for three years and still going. Love the lace to toe design, also. Thanks Zappos for the great service and free speedy delivery.

Fantastic Shoes!
These shoes are perfect for long walks with or without a day pack. Solidly built with good support. They were comfortable from the first day. The only thing I'd change is the laces - I prefer flat laces to the included round laces as flat laces tend to stay tight longer.

This is a great trail shoe, but you will need to remove the original inserts and add Superfeet inserts for better arch support. I had my right one built up by my orthotics guy, easy build still very stable.

From the moment I opened the box I could see and feel the "thought process". The sizing was spot on. I walk some hard miles, trails and hallways.
I wear them everywhere, on the field and in the class room as a teacher. I have been wearing Asolo for over 10 years and I've never been disappointed. Because of my heel spurs I do insert a pair of heel pads and I change out the laces to custom cut
Matching "climbing equipment" string or line.
It really tightens them up.
Zappos delivered the promise. I plan to continue using the service.
*Women always check them out and comment "?"
Is that a good reason to buy? Who cares!

Asolo Distance Goes the Distance and More!!
This shoe is everything I expected. Good style (at least as good as the picture), good craftsmanship. The shoe is stiff as it is suppose to be for "approaching," but maybe a little more so than expected if it's just to be worn around town as a casual shoe. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO A FRIEND!!!

These shoes are definitely water tight and built to last. Don't let the look fool you...They are not a rock climbing shoe... They are a hiker. Had to replace the foot beds right away as the ones that come with them are paper thin. If you are looking for a waterproof hiking shoe and don't need the ankle support of a boot... they are a nice choice.

I love Asolo -
These shoes, like all Asolos, are great! I love the way they look and feel. Only one concern: they dont have much arch support, but this can be fixed with an insole. I would buy another pair if I could afford it. BUY ASOLO, THEY ARE MADE IN ROMANIA!!

Are you folks for real!!! I had just ordered my shoes 2 days ago, and I received them already! Unbelievable service! Amazing reliability! I love the way I am able to see all sides of a shoe and read the very detailed description before making a purchase. Your variety of shoes is incredible! ****Please, run the country, please!****
