Best Shoe I ever have had

"I bought this shoe as a hiking and backpacking shoe and I absolutely love it. I have hiked hunderds of miles over rocks, dirt, wet, snow and they have done everything I could have wanted.

Walk, Don't Run...

"I wear these shoes every day pretty much all the time. I don't actually do much trail running, since I live in the city, so I can't comment on that aspect of them. They are a little warm of course, since they are Gore-Tex, but that is expected and is a plus in cool weather. They look great and I lov …"  Read Full Review »

"Out of all of the trail runners I've tried, these are still by far my favorite. They're comfortable, durable, and have great traction. I tend to pronate when I run but these shoes have the support I need, hence no shin splints.
