Extremely comfortable once you lace the to fit your feet and get the break in started. Honestly almost sent them back because i got 1/2 size larger than normal and they were still extremely tight. However, I kept them and have put about 35 miles on them and they fit like a glove, by far the most comfortable mountain boot I've ever worn. I will definitely buy another pair when these get worn out. They ability to use crampons is also a big selling point for me as it is common on the mountains around my area to have snow and ice long after the need for insulated boots is gone.Make sure to go at least 1/2 size up and keep in mind that mountaineering boots are supposed to fit tight.

I purchased these boots at the REI Flagship store in Seattle on the day prior to a hike / climb of Glacier Peak in Washington State. I bought a half size larger than my running shoe to ensure reasonable space for large socks and foot swelling. The boots performed very well on the 14 mile approach to Glacier Peak and they took the crampons for the last three miles to the summit. On completion of the trip, my feet looked and felt fine.The next gig was a trek / climb of Mt. Hood in Oregon. The crampons had to be tightened on a couple of times during the summit since the last 600 feet of the ascent is very steep. However, the boot and crampon combination continued to work well even though there is a bit of flex in the boots near the middle. My feet also remained at a ... MoreI purchased these boots at the REI Flagship store in Seattle on the day prior to a hike / climb of Glacier Peak in Washington State.

Once again, these boots carried the day and made a 14 hour summit experience bearable, if not pleasant.The most recent gig was a 12 mile approach to Skytop Lakes and climb of Granite Peak in the Beartooth Range of Montana -- the high point of Montana (August 20-21, 2019). The boots offered excellent footing on much of the tricky portions of the approach and held up during the steep climb of the SW Ramp toward the summit. Additionally, I was able to cross all of the streams without having to swap into my water shoes ... I went about a half a foot into the water and the Gore-Tex material kept the water out and my feet dry.These boots have been one of the best hiking / climbing investments that I have made in recent years and were critical in terms of completing the summits of Wyoming and Montana, my two final US State High Points.

Extremely comfy for a B2. Plenty of side support at the ankles but flexible at the back - ideal for slopesSoles are pretty solid, maybe slightly less than some other old b2s but I don't see any issues unless you are using these in extreme ice climbing situations close to needing a b3Came with two sets of insoles for better fitment. Nice wide style fitment rather than the narrow kind typically found.Tounge of the boot is fully attached for waterproofing but can be a little annoying if you have regular or standard legs due to how it tucks in, but it's not much of an issue.Weight wise these aren't super lightweight compared to a regular boot, but as far as b2s go these are greatFor the money it's an utterly brilliant boot.

I bought these to summit MT Hood.These are lightweight (for mounting climbing boots) stiff soled boots with limited insulation which are well suited for 3 season mountain climbing.These were very comfortable right out of the box but I still wore them around the house to break them in. I tried hiking outdoors with them but with the stiff sole they are not very comfortable hiking on flat ground. The front of the sole allows you to roll your foot forward but these are really made for climbing and descending not walking on the flat. So, I spent 2 weeks using them on an elliptical trainer to loosen the uppers up.These worked great summiting Mt. Hood, no blisters or hot spots. I used strap on crampons with no problems. My feet did not get cold in 35 degree F weather ... MoreI bought these to summit MT Hood.These are lightweight (for mounting climbing boots) stiff soled boots with limited insulation which are well suited for 3 season mountain climbing.These were very comfortable right out of the box but I still wore them around the house to break them in.

My feet did not get cold in 35 degree F weather walking on the glacier for 8+ hours, nor did they get hot. I could front point and side point and always felt very secure and comfortable.I couldn't be more pleased with these boots. My buddy got Scarpa boots which cost $50 more and weigh more, but I believe I made the better purchase. REI did not have these in stock so I ordered 2 pairs, size 12 and size 13 since previous reviews said these run small. I'm usually 11.5 or 12 and I ended up keeping the size 13 and returned the other pair at the local REI. So, yes they do run small. Nothing but positive comments from me, these boots are perfect! Happy climbing!
Bought these as a last resort. I have tried all types of boots for winter hiking here in Alaska, and wish I would have tried these sooner. The fit is great, and this is huge for me. I am prone to getting blisters on my heels due to the shape of my calcaneus. Fortunately, these have not put any type of pressure of hot spotting on my heels, or toes. The goretex has worked so far in the snow. These do come with insoles, and a couple inserts to customize the fit, honestly they are kind of garbage and as thin as paper. Going to find some other insoles to toss in here, because the stock ones really contribute to some serious foot fatigue.All in all, happy with these. Wish they had an all black option with the red accent, but not that big of a deal. Excited to see how ... MoreBought these as a last resort.

I've been trying to find a boot that is light, technical, and had some climbing ability.

First off - don't buy these boots strictly for the colors. The red fades FAST in snow and turns to a fainter red/reddish pink color. That might bother some people.This is a summer mountaineering boot, and when I wear this boot with lightweight wool socks, it's great. That being said, every time I put this boot on, it feels super tight, especially in the toebox. I'm always like "dang, I bought a half size too small" even after wearing them 30+ times. However, after I start hiking, that feeling goes away and they're very comfortable. I even climbed a 13er in Colorado once without insoles on accident (I took them out to swap in Superfeet, but in a rush forgot), and didn't even realize until we got back to the car the next day.

I have real bad ankles and feet from skateboarding, mt bike racing, motocross racing and other fun sports growing up and the support these boots offer is unparalleled as I compare to other hiking, trekking and light mountaineering boots I have bought in the past. The rigid sole transfers that foot/ankle energy to my calf, knee and thigh which keep the pain at the lower end of the scale. I just got back from Everest Base Camp and they performed exceedingly well. They tend to fit a tad bit small like Asolo boots but are super rugged. Pre EBC training was about 400 miles and they have an additional 200-300 more miles since returning and by the images, you can see that they are in pretty good shape from a wear perspective. I tie by boots so tight that I blow through ... MoreI have real bad ankles and feet from skateboarding, mt bike racing, motocross racing and other fun sports growing up and the support these boots offer is unparalleled as I compare to other hiking, trekking and light mountaineering boots I have bought in the past.

Pre EBC training was about 400 miles and they have an additional 200-300 more miles since returning and by the images, you can see that they are in pretty good shape from a wear perspective. I tie by boots so tight that I blow through laces every 150 miles but these still look new. I attempted to buy back up "factory" laces for these boots and was told by all sources that they are not available. Only bummer. I have not had the moisture intrusion problem I have read but have not trudged through deep rivers and ponds. The hundreds of streams and puddles never yielded any leakage. I did bail the factory insole for a custom orthotic. The only area where these may not perform so well would be on flat long treks. I have done the Camino de Santiago twice and would not bring these. The super rigid sole causes you to "clop, clop, clop" when you walk which may make other areas of you body hurt over time. Even though there is still more than 60% tread left and a 90% outer skin, I am going to purchase another pair before they change the model and put them in the queue.
I've owned these for about 8 months now. I actually got them primarily for work, and got a backup pair just for hiking. My work consists of a lot of ladder climbing and uneven terrain scaling through mud, dirt and high grass for AV and cctv work. Yesterday one of the construction guys i hadn't seen in months was blown away at their condition. I am incredibly rough on boots. There isn't a single stitch or seam out of place. Besides the heel rubber being worn, and some dirt and scuffs, you'd never know what I put these through. The shank and the rand is tough as nails. An absolute must in my field. Not so rigid it hurts, but did require a week or two of getting used to switching from more flexible boots. You won't regret these boots. Amazing quality all around. I will ... MoreI've owned these for about 8 months now. I actually got them primarily for work, and got a backup pair just for hiking.

I’ve owned Asolos, Zamberlans and lots of my long time favorite Scarpas…in particular their Charmoz and Zodiac Tech models which compete directly with the Salewa Crow. Before receiving them I wasn’t too optimistic about the Crows, thinking Salewa was a purveyor of somewhat lesser quality. But I was wrong. This is a well designed and well balanced product, so they’re quite adaptable. Really enjoying them, very satisfied. Already bought a second pair.
