I love my Zamberlan Vioz boots. Right away I noticed the firm grip the boots had on my heels. No slippage whatsoever. Also the shoes support my heels since I\'ve had plantar fashiitis. On a backpack I was wearing Asolos with no shank. I had no idea why my feet felt bruised, throbbing, like a headache after two ten mile days. By the fifth day I could not stand or walk. I crawled on all fours in the backcountry. I was able to do a hike after two months with my feet up trying to heal stress fractures. I suffered no pain after about an hour\'s hike. I used the Zamberlans while in the house and outside too doing chores and just the usual walking. Now that I\'m back at work, I have to wear shoes with shanks and built up heels. These shoes have a rocker sole so the heels are supported. I\'m on my feet all day as a teacher so the boots are working out very well. They also are beautiful with the brown leather and matching laces and beautiful hardware hooks and eyelets. I really love my Zamberlans; I even ordered the care kit so my Vioz will be beautiful forever. And my husband laughs at me. I actually spent most of my two months with my feet up with the boots on. I wasn\'t supposed to put any pressure on them at all.
Other Brands Recommended by Reviewer: I believe any of the other Zamberlans would be fine since they probably all have shanks in them.

Great comfort and support right out of the box. I don't usually like hikers this tall, but the ankle area is well padded and very comfortable. For those of you who want to continue to be able to hike, but have bad feet (stress fractures, arthritis, tendonitis, etc,), please try these. The cushioning and support are excellent, and the rocker sole helps avoid any forefoot or midfoot flexion, as does the shank. If you have bad feet, don't try any light hikers or tennis shoes for your hikes, keep your feet healthy and happy with these.

Zappos is one of the best internet businesses I've dealt with. I do a lot of purchasing online. The Zamberlan Vios GT is an outstanding boot. In my case, however, because of its height, it is uncomfortable on my arthritic left ankle. But any boot that height would do the same. Nevertheless, I'm confident it will break in. Considering its intended use (hardcore outdoor activity), the leather is relatively soft. As with others' feedback, the "Vibram" logo on the front of the boot aint workin'. I intend to indelibly obscure it if possible, i.e. find some kind of black ink that will adhere to the rubber. Otherwise it’s a very good looking, well constructed boot and worth the money. For others whose concern may be Zappos' prices, the couple bucks or so you pay is justified considering Zappos' efficient, reliable, fast service and excellent return policy.

Additional Brand Information

Zamberlan
Made in Italy since 1929

Guiseppe Zamberlan (also known as “Bepi” for short), is the mastermind behind Zamberlan footwear. He began his career repairing shoes, which in turn developed into a career of making finely crafted boots. His passion for the trekking and the outdoors, led him to search for better materials and more efficient construction methods of boot making to satisfy his need for ‘safer and easier’ movement throughout the mountains.

Zamberlan boots are quality tested for durability and performance. The Zamberlan company, which is situated at the foot of the Piccole Dolomiti, is an ideal testing ground for new products and ideas. It is within these mountains that new ideas for top quality boots are created and cultivated.

So after nearly 80 years of boot manufacturing, the Zamberlan Company is still a family run business, with the third generation actively taking part in all stages of design and production. At Zamberlan, they remain dedicated to their hand made boots and believe they will carry you well throughout your journey.
