Worth resoling -
Bar none, these are the best boots I've worn in the past 30 years. They fit right out of the box, they've never leaked, and they've never given me blisters. They breathe like no other boot I've ever worn. When I wore out the soles (after eighteen hard months), I had them resoled (Resole America, and I don't work there or know anyone there either, in case you're wondering) and they're like new. I will definitely buy another pair. Maybe two.

Vasque Wasatch GTX -
I think these are the best boots I've purchased for hiking. I have Flat feet both ankles that have been broken which left me with larger than normal size ankles. These Boots fit great out of the Box and gave outstanding stability to my ankles. I am not a long distance hiker by any means, but these boots have allowed me 10 mile days at 6'1" 265 lbs. with 40 pound pack. Im Sold on these Boots.

Great boots -
It is hard for me to find just the right boot. These were just what I wanted. I bought two other pair before trying these. They were a little stiff out of the box but after a week of twelve hour days in them they are well broke in. I had no blisters or hot spots ever. Very comfortable and so light. I will be buying these whenever my current pair fall apart.

Great Boots -
I've been wearing Vasques for fifteen years. I hike almost every day and find them to be the most comfortable boot on the market. Great traction, waterproof, great support and comfort - what more could you ask for?

Vasque Wasatch GTX -
I am a very discriminating boot buyer who recently did a 21 mile backpack trip in three days and two nights with a 40 pound pack while wearing a "out of the box" pair of Vasque Wasatch GTX's and am very happy to say that I would highly recommend them. Tough, excellent support and no blisters in some very rugged country. Thank you Vasque!

Great Boot -
I ordered these boots in a size larger than I normally wear and they fit so nice when I tried them on. I wore them to work the next day for 12 hours and they felt very nice on my feet. Nice and solid footing. I'm very happy with these boots and will buy them again when I wear these out.

Vasque Quality/comfort Problems -
I am about 6'1'' and 200 lbs. First Boots were defective. Felt comfortable initially but after wearing them they hurt top of my foot. Left one smaller than right one volume wise with a full 1/4" less leather over the front of the shoe and the tongue was twisted up with bad sowing. Exchanged the shoes and then the second pair did not have the same problems, but different problems. They had a very minor leak under the front toes and killed my arch in one shoe after about 30 minutes of walking because the one shoe was not made properly and forced the arch to hang out outside of the sole.
As an added note, bought these at Jesse browns, not Zappos. They do not seem to want to take care of me, so I am looking for boots at Zappos.
Poor quality control and would not recommend.

Very comfortable out of the box. Required no break-in period. Very good quality and durable. Cactus spines did not penetrate.

Worth Every Penny -
A great hiking boot! I said "boot" because just like all boots, you need to break them in. I did a four mile fire fighter pack test with these to break them in and now they are great! The grip, sturdiness, and support for you feet is awesome. The only thing I would caution anyone on is the boot size. I wear a size 12 in Reebok shoes and the boot is a half size smaller (11 1/2). I would recommend any Vasque product.

I wore these boots right out of the box on a 20 mile hike on steep Appalachian mountain trails mostly in the rain. My feet were comfortable and dry the whole trip.

Envy of the mountain goats...
I purchased the Vasque Wasatch GTX boots a month before a trip to Glacier National Park in July 2006. I wore them several times before the trip but did not give them the full break-in I thought they should have. It did not matter because the boots performed wonderfully for over 30 miles of rocky up and down hiking with heavy pack and day pack. My feet usually blister no matter what I do, but I did not have one hot spot. I will buy Vasque again, particularly from Zappos!

They need a little breaking in if you are not used to a padded high top, good support, comfortable after break-in!

4 wheel drive for your feet -
I've never owned a pair of high quality boots like these since it was nearly impossible to find wide sizes at the local stores. I used to own some Rockports in a regular width but did not wear them much because of comfort issues (not fitting my wider foot). I also tried some Dunhams in 4E width but that was too wide. These Vasque's fit perfectly. There was initially a little pressure on the instep but a change in lacing techniques fixed the problem while still holding the heel firmly in place.
I have taken these on several day hikes and found them very comfortable and able to take whatever conditions and terrain are thrown at them. The waterproofing is awesome and I like the way they look too.
Zappos service was excellent.

Very Pleased -
Excellent boots. Quality of materials is very good and as described. The boot has a lot of support and is really comfortable. There are some very small details about the styling of the boot that I would change, but 1) they are unimportant 2) these are not meant to make me pretty. :-) I looked a long time at boots before deciding on this pair. The boot is a little pricey but is in line with other boots of that quality. Price at Zappos (when you consider no tax and free shipping) was actually cheaper than other shops (I know because I spent hours trying to find a cheaper price on eBay, other online shoe stores, local retailers, etc.). Bought 2 pair at the time (this pair and another from Garmont). Returned the other set because they were uncomfortable. Shipping was fast (and free). My return was handled without any problems. I have no regrets about the boots or Zappos.

No problems on the Camino-
I wore this shoe on the Camino de Santiago, 150 miles over Roman military roads that were very rough and steep. Never had one foot related problem, thanks to these great fitting and comfortable boots.

My husband loves these boots!
He's owned another pair of Vasque boots before these and wore them almost every day for five years. These new boots have some improved features including more ankle support and better waterproofing without being too heavy. They're a good investment.

Still one of the best brands -
I still have a pair of Vasque Skywalker 11 boots that I bought around 1985. They are still in great shape but my climbs are getting longer and tougher and my foot really needed a wider shoe (the Skywalkers are 10 1/2 M). I bought the Wasatch GTX (10 W) and I am extremly pleased with the fit and construction. The toe rand really helps against abrasion and the ankle protection is also great for rock hopping. This is an all around great boot for day hikes and overnighters and will probably be with me for quite a long time.

 |  | Thanks a lot for the reply and time again Zappos proved me that its the most user friendly site available! Its hard to find such an empathetic folks all working for a website! Way to go Zappos! I wish all the success. I would not mind buying other line of products also from this website other than just shoes, etc. I hope some day you folks will get in to other products also.
Now regarding my rock climbing shoes, I would probably like to take the refund credit back to my purchasing credit card as I may not be able to wait long for the arrival of size 12. So, please send me across the return shipping label via email and I will return the shoe promptly.
Thanks a lot for being patient in understanding my situation and giving me a great experience shopping @ Zappos.
