Purchased these boots to deal with the Arizona heat in the summer. I have to say they are outstanding, I am hard on my feet and living off grid I have they are holding up surprisingly well. Hood ankle support and I have had no issues with the heel as others have mentioned. As winter is coming I will switch back to my Crispi boots but these are my new go to summer boots!

I really enjoy the light weight and flexibility of these boots, they feel like regular shoes most of the time. But as many people have pointed out, the heel cup is too high and stiff. My best recommendation is to line the heel cup with moleskin. Even after breaking them in for 7 months the moleskin is still required to prevent blisters on your heel. The exchange brand moleskin lasts about 4 months in the heel cup so not a big deal. The boots could be so much better with a lower and more flexible heel cup and toe cap.

I agree with some of the other reviews here. These are a great pair of breathable boots, but the heel cup is way too stiff and high. My left side is especially bothersome on mine
