My other Asolo Boots were XC ski. Like those the Falcon EVO GVs are superior quality and value for the money. Wore out the Ozboz, Keen's etc and their quality went down. These are stable, light, and put a spring in my step. I'm 87, 166 #, and these are just right for the moderate trails here in coastal Maine, and just fine for Swiss style trails. I would not recommend them for the muddy rooted AT, Mike W · REI

Was skeptical due to several low star reviews, but just put these to work on the 50 mile W trek in Chile and they worked great. Have been running in lone peaks for years and used heavy boots to trek in the past, but no longer. Supportive, very comfortable, no break in time, no blisters. My partner was wearing her regular lone peaks and did get wet feet, I was dry in rain and creek crossings no pro Dano · altrarunning.com
