Great all around hiking boots
I ordered these a few weeks ago but wanted to give them a full run before reviewing them. I just got back from a camping/hiking trip in Shenandoah National Park and put these boots thru their paces.To begin with I ordered a size 11 by accident. I meant to order an 11 wide, however the 11 fit perfectly! Unless you have extremely wide feet I would not order the wide.I did some serious hiking in them which included rock scrambling and some small water crossings. Traction was great and my feet stayed bone dry through the water crossings. They are also comfortable to wear and my feet felt good even after 5 miles of hiking.Overall a great boot for the price.

My first pair of hiking boots and they're perfect
These hiking boots are fantastic. Love the color and look too. I got several compliments on them.Ordered them two days before we left for Glacier National Park, and they arrived just in time! Wore them the day we traveled to break them in, and they were actually pretty comfortable off the bat! I got the recommended size (7 - I'm normally a 6.5)Lots of room in the toe box without causing any blisters. Wore them with thinner socks and still felt great. They're awesome with thick hiking socks.I used them for several 6-8 mile hikes, up and down steep inclines and rough rocky terrain. Felt so sturdy - I never slipped or rolled my ankle once. I also stepped in a couple shallow creeks with them. Feet were still dry after crossing. The laces make the boots very adjustable. I wouldn't tie the tops too tight though, as this didn't feel great on my ankles.I'm a decently experienced hiker but have never actually had real hiking boots before - always just wore running shoes. These are a fantastic first choice.

Great Waterproof Boots
I bought other waterproof shoes and there was no support so I purchased these. What a great buy. I walk about 10 miles a day and these make the biggest difference. A little break in time and I wear socks with these. My feet have stayed 100% dry in pouring rain and walking through puddles. They are also super supportive. They seem quite durable and I expect to have these for many years. I bought my normal size and they fit true to size. Very comfortable. A little on the heavy side but that’s what I expected with the quality materials used for waterproofing.

Good fit, love the color and the comfort
The fit is great, I went with an 11. I do wish there had been a wide option at the time of purchase as its a little bit tight on the top of my feet, but I'm hoping it'll get softer as I wear them more to break them in on walks and easy hikes. They're comfy for now but I'll have to wait and see how they do. Love the color, and overall pretty happy

I love these boots!
This is my first pair of hiking boots and I’m not sure how I survived this long without them. What a game changer! Every step feels so much safer and more supported than regular tennis shoes. And you can’t beat the price they are offered for here on Amazon compared to the local sports stores, I saved over $40. Can’t beat that!

Buy these for hiking and so much more!
My daughter and I hiked Olympia National Park for a week and these boots were the best! Light weight, sturdy yet comfortable. We climbed mountains, walked through wet rain forests and sandy pacific beaches. They scored at all locations. I thought I would save them for hiking only but now I wear them working in the yard, and mowing the lawn. My feet aren’t as fatigued with these boots as they are with my tennis shoes. I plan to buy another pair. I wear a 9.5 running shoe and the size 9 fit perfectly.

Perfect for Novice Hikers
These are great shoes for novice hikers. I usually find mid-rise boots uncomfortable as they rub my Achilles tendon. These were great. Very supportive on some difficult hikes. Comfortable on sandy, dirt, and rock terrains. Colors are beautiful. I wore these around the house a few times before our trip, so no real break-in needed. I sized up half a size to accommodate for thick socks. If I order again I’ll get my regular size as my foot did slide some inside the shoe on descents. Obviously the lighter color shows more dirt, but that’s just a sign of fun adventures! I would 100% buy again.
