Fit is snug, get 1/2 size bigger than you usually wear. Very cute and rugged. Already put them to the test in snowy weather in MN. Stayed waterproof and had good traction on ice.

Finally! I have wide feet and shopping for hiking boots/shoes is a nightmare. These are perfect and comfortable right out of the box. The first day I got them we went on a 5 mile hike and I had no running or pain in the side of my foot like I do with regular width boots. I am an 11 and the size 11 fit perfectly. Other reviews say they run small, but I didn’t find that to be the case for me. Highly recommend if you are looking for a wide width boot!

A great lighter-weight hiking shoe for all weather conditions. Glad to have an alternative to my heavy boots!

I was looking for a hiker that is more a cross between an athletic shoe and hiker because they tend to be more comfortable for me. This shoe is very cushioned and has excellent support for my high arches. They are a tad bit shorter than I had hoped, but I will wear a thinner sock to compensate. I am very happy with my purchase.

I really liked the boots. The colors were perfect as well as the style. The sizing was way off for me. I am normally a size 5.5 but I ordered a 6 to wear a bit heavier of a sock. I barely got my feet in with thin socks. If you're interested in purchasing a would size a full size.

Very comfortable; required no break-in time. The toebox was roomy. Nice padding around ankles for support and comfort. No pain after 2 days of hiking. I did size up one whole size, so it might run smaller. Highly recommend.

I loved my boots! I went to Yellowstone and I hiked with them, they were fine for six hours. I recommend to get one size more if you're wearing thick socks.

I read the reviews and was happy that I ordered both a half size larger and the wider size. The shoe is extremely comfortable - there are no seams or anything on the sides that would press on my ‘hard to fit’ toes. They are also lightweight. I’m going to Iceland in August so I hope that these are just what I need!

These are my new favorite shoes!! I love that my feet stay warm and dry whether it's rain or snow! I also love the ankle support it gives. It's not as bulky as a hiking boot but more support than your average sneaker. This is especially helpful for me since I broke my ankle a few years back so I prefer support for rocky trails! On top of all that, these shoes are extremely comfortable! Runs true to size as well!

Great fit and so comfortable. I did a 5 hour hike without wearing these before and they were amazing. No blisters.

I was looking for a hiking shoe with a bit more ankle support but not as thick soled as a true hiking boot. This fits the bill well. They wear nicely in a variety of temps. I did have to replace the stock insoles with superfeet. Could do without the loud pink laces and eyelets, but oh well

The best thing about these boots is the change to the top fastenings. On my old Columbia boots they had a hook and eye type thing for the ankle fastening. If I didn’t remember to tie my bow on the outside of the boot, they’d often get caught in the metal hook and seriously trip me up. They’ve done away with that now and I’m free from my hiking boots trying to kill me. I just wore them out for the first time and they seem fine. I’m really pleased about those laces though

With the rainy season coming up in the pnw, I decided to start looking for a new waterproof walking shoe. As a dog walker and amateur hiker, quality is key. I like the high tops, I searched for that feature specifically to help keep water out, and it does! They are truly waterproof, as tested through fields with dewy grass and steady rain. High quality and durable materials, excellent grip on the bottom as well. The only thing that's poorly designed is the foot bed. Shoe making 101 tells you that a good shoe is supposed to propel you forward, but this foot bed is so flat that it actually makes you sit back on your heels, which is terrible for your feet, your knees, your hips, and your back. Thank goodness this shoe has removable insoles and I was able to put in my own. The insoles help a little bit, but the design of the foot bed is so poor that I'm still having trouble walking with a good tread. I'll hang onto them because they're so rugged, but the search still continues for the perfect waterproof walking shoe. One last thing: I normally wear a size 7, but based on the sizing chart and the actual measurement of my foot, I ordered a 7.5. glad that I did.

So comfy and super cute! Bit narrow for a wide fit though. I wish they were a touch wider especially on my toes. Bought an 11 could size up half a size but I think if I break them in they'll be fine

Love these shoes but they are too narrow for me. I'll keep my fingers crossed that the wide will work. The color, style, and cushioning is just right. I've been looking for a sneaker type hiking shoe that I could wear from the trail to around town and that would accommodate my sensitive feet. I need cushioning but not too much cushioning and I'm a supinator so I need a heel cup that doesn't exacerbate this. I also find that many shoes cause me heel pain and these don't. I wear a 9 regular in Saucony and ordered a 9 in these. Length good, width not.

Can't wait for a good Sierra test hike. Had to exchange from 10 to 10.5 as they run short and narrow ( which I need). Look cool and feel light weight with good ankle support and flexibility.
