Customer Reviews Under Armour UA Fat Tire GTX

My wonderful wife bought the FAT TIRE "Camo" color for my Christmas Present and these are simply the best outdoor boot/shoe I have ever owned. EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE... like walking on an inner tube from your mountain bike. But the second thing is the "dial" closure which makes getting these on and off about a 2 second thing... I remember a pair of running shoes 10-15 years ago that had a similar dial open/closure system and I loved them also... ALL boots and shoes should use this system. I am sorry to see they are out of the CAMO one's and hope to see many more low and mid and high shoes and boots with the FAT TIRE feel and dial system!

OMG! These are, without a doubt, loved the style and look, but then I tried them on and there was an abnormality in the right one that made them unwearable. I contacted Under Amour and told the customer service person the situation and I was surprised when she told me she would send another pair out that day! I actually received the replacements before I could make it to the post office to send to the others back! I am very impressed. They are super light and extremely comfortable. I was looking for a shoe/boot to wear this winter and am I so happy to have found these. First day that I wore them for a full day, I did a couple of long hike at Great Smoky Mt. Very comfortable. Great grip on sole. I would recommend this shoe.

This is my second pair of Fat Tires. This pair fits nothing like the first generation. Me and both my kids have been wearing them for a year. Bought the new ones for all 3 of us, they rub very aggressively on the outside of both ankles at the top of the boot on all 3 of us.

I felt compelled to update my review, however since I cannot update my review on the UA site for some odd reason, I will add it here. So after about a hundred miles of use (not that much for a boot), I've noticed some things that require a downgrade of my initial impression. Let me just begin with they are still darn comfortable for the most part, the rocker type sole really works for me, and that particular feature is what I've sold a few folks on, they found it as comfortable as I did. However, in that area resides one of my issues. The tread is almost bald after only a hundred miles! Once that's gone, they are gone, which kinda sucks for the price tag. My second gripe is with the Boa system. As much as I loved it at first, the ease of getting in and out, they eventually proved to be flawed. I found that they will wrench down pretty hard on your foot long before it starts to cinch well enough around your ankle, making them not that supportive up top, I almost had a pretty nasty ankle roll coming down a mountain. I've even tried to wear thick socks in hopes it would force the system to tighten more around the ankle, which in turn made an already hot boot even hotter. Also, there has been some stretching of the material going on. They looked perfect new, but now the two sides nearly touch across the top of my foot. All in all I still think these are seriously comfortable, and with easy hiking or street walking, they should remain useful for at least a little while.

I love the style of these shoes and the lacing system. They are very comfortable for a guy like me who’s on my feet 10 plus hours a day being a city truck driver. My complaint who these shoes are for $200 these shoes should have came with better insoles for that price. I’m a person who suffers with over pronation and just feel at price the shoe could have more stability in it but it could just be me. I probably won’t make year in these because after a couple of months the bottom soles have already begun to wear down.
