Pros: very comfortable and flexible boot, aggressive tread and soles holding up well in rocks sage and cactus, minimal seams and double stitching, easy to clean debris accumulation between boot tongue and laces
Cons: like most wide toe box shoes there is plenty of room on the medial big toe side but not on the lateral small toe side, shoe laces started shredding day 3 so replaced but haven’t decided whether it was the laces or hardware, the leather loop on back of boot is unnecessary and pants hang up on it every time you sit or kneel, needs a rock plate for off trail steep descents, insoles not suitable for insulation during Rocky Mountain winters, toe of boot taking a beating in sage country but not yet ready to question durability
Suggestions: remove loop at back of boot, fit a rock plate for off trail, felt insoles for winter, more toe box width on small toe side and less on big toe side of toe box, low protective rand on front of boot
