Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Trail Model Hiker 4 Water Resistant Low

This shoe seems well made and supportive, offered at a good price for the quality. Unfortunately the wide size toe box wasn't quite wide enough for my feet, although the heel was fine. For comparison, New Balance wide and Keen usually fit me.

Nice look and well-constructed; very stiff though and hard to break-in. I worn very thin socks the first day I wore them for several hours and they killed my feet. I have since moved up to a medium weight sock. I still experience some discomfort, but that's probably due to my foot problems. Hopefully, they will eventually loosen up. I had planned to wear them in Disney. I'm not sure that will happen. True to size (7.5M).

A little stiff around the ankles and footbed but has the warmth I was looking for

Didn't fit me right and I'm looking for a light weight shoe. So my rating isn't accurate because I didn't wear them. They were a very nice shoe, pretty and well made. I know I ordered the wrong shoe when I wanted a light wet shoe.

Liked the look and general feel of the shoe. Padding along top of heel is stiff and hurt the back of my foot so i had to return them.

A solid trail shoe, warm and water resistant. I usually am an 8.5 regular but had to order a 9 wide to wear socks of any substance. Also wish the shoes had more padding in the foot bed. They are also heavier than expected.

I needed a pair of hiking shoes for our trip to the UK and this pair worked great. It kept my feet warm and dry even hiking through small puddles. My only complaint is why are boot shoelaces circular and not flat; they always come untied and they are barely long enough to double knot.

Comfortable, solid hiking shoe that definitely keeps feet dry. Would have added a fifth star if there were just a tad more arch support. But, on the whole, am most pleased to find a sturdy hiking shoe that fits my narrow foot.

I liked everything about this shoe but the way it fit. It's well made, sturdy and has good traction. Sadly, either my ankles are too low of the shoe is cut too high, and it is overall big on my foot, so I returned them, with regret.

I really wanted to like these hiking shoes. Colors and overall outer design are great. I had ordered the navy blue/teal color combination in a 6 Wide. While the length was good, the width was too narrow. The shoes felt tight with little give on the sides. I had to return them.

Nice shoe but They are not as "lightweight" as I expected. I had to return them.

These shoes felt a little stiff at first, but I broke them in for a couple of weeks and then wore them all over Scotland-walked over 75 miles in 12 days. They were great-grippy, waterproof, and supportive. Only suggestion would be to lengthen the tongue, it's just barely long enough for the top row of shoelace eyelets.

It's a very comfortable and yet rugged hiking shoe.

Nice looking shoe. Fits true to size. A bit heavy and stiff.

The shoes are quite stiff and need to be broken in. Unfortunately I have a blister on one heel. Other than that they are super and have a great tread.

We'll built especially here for New England's spring mud and water season. Comfortable.

I normally wear a size 8.5 shoe but ordered a 9 and they fit perfectly. They are so comfortable. They are my indoor shoe for now. I will buy another pair for outside.

The shoe is great in most features...however, I had to buy pads for the heels because my ankle rubbed the edge of the shoe. Otherwise, a good product. I would make the bottom edge darker in color.

They are very stiff, especially by the ankles. Otherwise comfortable and wearing well.
