Reviews overview
This is what other customers say:
I've been using this boot for several months and whilst it took a few weeks to break in properly I'm now very happy with the overall feel and fit of the boot. It's quite stiff which means good support on longer treks, but also lightweight which reduces fatigue. I have slightly wide feet so went up half a size from usual. I've also added a Sidas insole to increase cushioning & arch support.

Loved this boot, super comfortable for long multi day sumer and winter trips. The lace lock buckle is annoying when your hands are cold but still manageable. Only moving on because after about 5 years the waterproofing is giving in but I've definitely had my moneys worth!
All round decent boots... very impressed so far.. narrower than I would expect for a boot
Once you put thicker sock in its impossible to use. therefore 4 stars
