Vasque Men's Breeze Wt GTX Hiking Shoe

hiking boot

Quality hiking boots always feel stiff at first, and need to be broken in.

I had to get the third pair of hiking boots to get the correct size,

worn-out

Lace hooks broke within three months on one shoe. .

wear

I now have to buy another boot, as I wear my boots everyday and require them to withstand my daily lifestyle, mostly for working on my feet, Not a happy customer.

waterproof

Not actually waterproof
Day two of a backcountry hunt I got a surprise when I felt the water in the toe box of my new pair of these boots.

uncomfortable

comfortable boot

Where credit is do, it is a comfortable boot with a very short break in.

hiking trail

but my wife has hiked the AT and lots of other trails, and I think her recommendation is a good one.

comfortable

I have worn Vasque boots for working outdoors for a couple decades and find that they fit me well and last a long time.

They fit great are soft and feel good
I use these shoes for every day use hunting, fishing, and work construction they have been my go to shoes for 15 years.

Eastland Women's Meander Fashion Boot

Not comfortable
Stiff and uncomfortable for me

stiff

sock

I wore them around the house for a couple of days with thick socks and my feet were a bit tender after that

pain

foot pain

These boots are very comfortable for the purpose and they look good.

Comfortable, reasonably priced, with a good tread for everyday cool/cold season weather
I have long second and third toes which aren't happy in shoes, so for the last decade I've been wearing sandals year round except for logger boots a full size too big when I take walks or hike trails.

boot

but worth it
It took a long while for these boots to go on sale but it was well worth the wait.

but comfy and cute boot to wear to the office or out for fun.

I even wore them to drive 4.5 hours with no issues.

Rocky Outback Gore-Tex Waterproof Hiker Boot

quality control

If it wasn't for the quality control issues, I would have kept this boot.

Cons: Quality control is severely lacking.

Oddly enough the place where the stitching was really falling apart was marked with a Quality Control sticker!

damage

The lining had wrinkles and was loose not glued down.

It was apparent this would need to be repaired immediately or the problem would only worsen.

The stitch was place outside of where it was supposed to be and it was plain to see this stitch would most likely get torn or cut during a hike and would place the rest of the stitching for the boot in jeopardy.

On the right boot, where the gore-tex fabric is stitched into the boot was poorly done.

Upon further inspection, the stitching wasn't much better in the left boot.

Upon further inspection found another issues with the stitching of the leather on the inside of the right boot.

Upon further inspection of reviews for this boot from Amazon and other websites, it is also apparent the glue Rocky uses for their boots is not what it used to be and can fail after some use requiring the owner to purchase another pair of boots.

Because of the issues with the pair I bought and questions about durability, I decided to return the boots.

I don't think they would make good work boots because they are so lightweight.

The only complaint I have is that the width of material that holds the tongue in place on the left boot is incorrect such that the tongue always wants to slip to the outside.

width

In comparing the width of material to the right boot the mistake is clear.

interior

Very Comfortable
I have only had these boots for one week.

However, I have hiked in them every day on and off trails in the Laguna Mountains of Southern California.

Probably the most comfortable and sturdy boots I've ever put on 10 out of 10 will buy again hope they last awhile we shall see

Like the moccasin toe , comfortable, easy lacing.

very little break in
comfortable right out of box

hiking

Great for hiking
Man I can't say enough how much I love these boots.

Took it for a short hike and had no issues at all.

I would recommend these boots for hiking or hunting.
