First hike I wore these boots on was a winter 10km trail through Cradle Mountain. Fantastic straight out of the box comfort and warm dry feet. They are really light and the synthetic fabric moves with your foot flex superbly. The lacing system has locking clips to stop them from slipping or moving over time when laced up. Really looking forward to more hikes in these especially multi day trips. AJ · arcteryx.com.au

My search for well fitting boots has been complicated by a narrow heel and wide instep; feet almost impossibly between just about all manufacturer's sizes (10.3? 43.6? no one makes these); and then, a few years ago, plantar fasciitis, which I think was in part brought on by the new crop of shoes with almost no insole structure, combined with my search for light weight boots.
