I highly recommend these boots, they're perfect for hiking. They are really comfortable and provide good ankle
stability. If you're a hiker these are the ones, look no further!

I've gone on about 10 hikes now (ranging 2-6 hours) and I only have positive things to say about these boots! Great traction, no blisters, no wet feet. 10/10 recommend

I love that they are water resistant and yet so light weight. I wear them all the time especially when it's rainy outside.

These boots are the best. Kept my feet dry even hiking through marsh like trails. They are very comfortable and light and on my feet.

I tried out my new boots on a 4 mile hike. They are very comfortable, lightweight and kept my feet warm and dry! I hiked around a lake with ice and my feet stayed dry. I am super happy with my purchase.

I hiked 900 km in them and they were great. However, they are not waterproof.

Ordering a half size up from my norm was a good call; thanks to the previous reviewers Hiked a few miles uphill without skin breakdown or discomfort. A first for me! I always blister at my heels, tops of toes and/or toe pads (city girl feet). I did a similar hike in my most comfortable tennis shoes and still ended up with toe pad pain and a pinky toe blister.

Great for short day hikes! Not sure if you'd want to take them on a longer journey because they lack the some of the structure of a traditional hiking boot but they do provide a sturdy sole, ankle support and flexibility. Be aware that these run small a bit. Order at least a half size larger than you normally wear.

Going on a hiking trip to Yellowstone soon so I needed some great hiking boots. I was bummed that they didn't have them in my size. I normally where a size 8. So I got the 8.5 since everyone was saying to size up a bit. I'm glad I did! I think 8.5 is absolutely perfect. They feel soooooooo comfortable. I love that they also don't look like the normal type of hiking shoes as I want to wear them for purposes other than hiking as well. I can't wait to wear them on longer journeys. They also don't feel like they need to be broken in at all.10/10 would recommend.

These are super cute, but I tried another North Face style that just felt a bit more comfortable.

I wanted a pair
Of hiking boots that is flexible and light. I noticed after only 4 time hiking that the fabric is starting to tear a little bit, where you bend your foot. I hope it will
Stop there because i really like these shoes. The terrain where i hike is very sandy so these shows have great grips!

These have been great for the spring hikes I've taken them on. They do great in the mug and rainy trials, keeping my feet nice and dry. The only thing is they are pretty snug, especially on the arch. After I put them on, I have to wait about 30 minutes before I can tie the laces. If I tie them too soon my feet tingle and fall asleep. But if I wait, they're perfect! I love the ankle support.

Very cute and comfortable once you get them on. They're a little hard to get on though, definitely not the shoes I could just slip on that I replaced with these ones. Still worth it.

This is a great shoe for shorter hikes (< 3 miles). Longer than that and you can feel a lack of cushion and uncomfortable rubbing. But super cute for quick day trips!

These boots are great for some pretty intense hikes through Montana. However, my foot falls asleep in them. After the first mile or so, I have to re-tie them.

I wanted to love these! They are so comfortable when standing still but they collapsed way too much across the top of my toes while walking. If the toe box had a little more structure to keep from flexing so much they would have been perfect. Sadly, they are going back.

Would recommend for ankle protection for light walks off road, any serious hiking would get another more solid boot.

This is an excellent shoe for a very specific use case and foot. If you want a super minimal shoe with excellent grip, that feels almost like a climbing shoe that is really waterproof (and not at all breathable) this is it. Not insulated, but best in snow, water. I have very narrow feet and got some pretty excellent heel blisters where there just isn't enough support/cushion. On the plus side the ankle support was perfect straight away.

I was excited to order these for a new hiking shoe but very disappointed when they arrived and were way too small. I wear the same size shoe in nearly every brand but could barely squeeze these on my feet.
