These boots are great. Lacing system is innovative, allowing the boot to snug up in the right spots. Tongue hook helps you strap in. The craftsmanship is exceptional, except for a toe guard. Broken these boots around the house for two weeks. Ventured outside for four days. Rubber began to separate from boot. No problem! Zappos is exchanging. Other than that, the comfort and support is great. The Power Matic system is noticeable and floats over the terrain. I had a two pair of Fugitives for 4 years, much lighter and don't appear to be as durable, benefit of leather.

Large, heavy, very stiff boot. I loved the boot but it is substantial. I had to send it back because the right ankle cuff hurt my ankle badly. It\\\'s from the difference in my ankles than a defect in the boot because I tried two pair and had the same problem. I loved the style too. I wish they would make this style in a lighter model like the fugitive model. Zappos is a little pricier than every other website. That\\\'s how they make up all that \\\'free\\\' shipping. But very good service as usual. I emailed Asolo and they didn\'t even know what Zappos was.

Great Boot -
My previous pair of boots was a Garmont, which I liked a lot; however I had difficulty finding a similar model lately and went for the Asolo. This is a very sturdy and comfortable boot and I highly recommend it. I am still breaking it but so far after several hours of hiking in different terrains, no blisters, or discomfort. Once again it is a great pair of boots.
The only bad things I can say are that the laces seem a little weak and that there was some glue spots from the manufacturing process on several locations on the boots... in both cases this obviously is not a big deal.

Look great, but complete nightmare to walk in -
Broke these in over two months to prep for hike on the Inca trail and Apu Ausangate in Peru. During the break in, they weren’t horribly comfortable, but I expected that - at least no blisters, etc... First day of my hike I ended up with a bruised hot spot on my right shin and a full thickness 6" blister on my left heel. Tried replacing in a number of patterns, shin pads, blister pad, nothing worked. Ended up wearing my Vibram FiveFingers for the rest of the hike without any trouble. What a waste of money. It drives me nuts to buy hiking boots like these without having any inkling as to whether this kind of thing is going to be a problem until you’re actually on the hike.

Wonderful Boot, Typical Asolo width...
The second Asolo releases this boot in a wide size I will purchase a pair. No sooner, No later. If Salomon's or Timberlands typically fit you, I would bet this boot would fit fine. For those of us who need a bit more room (Thank you Keen) these just fall short. They're also quite a bit taller than other runs of Asolo hikers. Definitely a large but very sturdy boot.

State of the art -
These boots are awesome. The craftsmanship is exceptional. The comfort and support is great. The rubber toe guard is key for protecting the leather. The lacing system is superb it allows the boot to snug up perfectly. The lace hook in the middle of the tongue allows you to get your heel all the way back, as well as create great ankle support. They are pricey but worth every penny. The Power Matic system and the structure of the shoe feel like it propels you forward. I've never experienced any boot like it before. I had a pair of Vasques for 8 years and these boots are built way better so I expect to get a lot of miles out of them. Asolo has mastered the art of boot making.

 |  | Dear customer service guys: I wanted to say how awesome your staff is. I've dealt with several via phone doing some shoe shopping, and they're always, always, always cheerful and they personalize the conversation. Your staff seems to enjoy their work and makes shopping online/exchanging via phone a breeze. The VIP overnight shipping is great too, but I could do without that as long as your staff continued their positive, personal service to customers. Thanks so much to whoever trains your staff...you've obviously got great staff training programs and great managers/supervisors. Thanks again!!! |  | ~ Elizabeth H., November 08 2009
