Reviews overview
Praise vs. Criticism
Very well made
However I didn't buy them. I take a 7 and usually buy Salomon 7 1/2 cos they are wife fitting. Tried a size 8 in these but they were way too narrow.

Sole out of line with upper !
Bought for lightweight use and developed ankle and knee problems . Put this down to old age(me not the shoe) and attended my physio for a going over . I've been seeing same guy for a number of years and he asked what was different as this was the first injury related reason for attending..subsequently asked me to bring the shoes next session .
Next time around he examined shoes.
After placing them on a table it was clear the sole and upper were badly out of line and caused the ankles to camber inwards..stopped wearing and the problem resolved itself
Dont know if these are a dud pair or this is Garmont "tech" would check them on table top straight out of the box guys beware.
What do you think about that?
This is what other customers say:
I have a pair of Garmont Pinnacle GTX boots that are truly excellent. This was a factor in buying the dragontails.
However first time I wore them in rocky terrain they both got damaged and now need to be replaced. Fit and stability is good but uppers too fragile.
