I gave these a shot. Wow. Extremely comfortable out of the box. Perfect support and I consider them an upgrade to my previous favorites. Traction seems great.
Insoles are adequate for average person, however I will be upgrading. Laces and hooks are great. I am between an 11.5 and 12 with dinners and Keens. Got the 12m and they fit perfectly with hunting socks. Expensive but seem with it to me.
Very happy with this purchase
3/20/2023 update: Be careful walking down wooden stairs, deck, wooden bridges...any treated, weathered decking. Especially if it is looking green from algae. Or think of those little wooden bridges you sometimes run across when out hiking state forests. You are taking your life into your own hands!!!. You can climb a 90 degree mountain slope with extreme confidence in these boots. But try walking down wooden deck steps that are damp with morning dew...and you risk life and limb!
Don't hesitate to buy these if you understand the value of great footwear in the Mountains and want the best available boot for an extreme mountain hunting trip.
I'm a big guy but get out and walk during game seasons. I was able to put many a mile on these boots on uneven ground. The sole makes them far superior to any other boot I've worn. I'd have never been able to hunt as hard as I did this year without them. They are far and away the best boot I've worn.
The only downside is that the stiff sole makes traction on wet ground a bit treacherous. I can't feel when I'm standing on a stick under wet grass like I could on the old boots. So you need to pay more attention to where you are going or standing on.
