Bottom Line: Get low weight and heavy-duty performance from the Vasque Wasatch GTX Hiking Boots.
I wore these boots about a week before I really used them. I had no problems in Belize, hiking in the mud 6 miles on multiple days. My feet never got wet despite the mud and puddles. If I had to complain, it kept my feet pretty warm in the humid weather. However, I never got a blister, or even a hot spot.
My husband bought me these boots after His dog chewed up my Northface boots. I wasn't so sure about these boots at first. But let me tell you, we have had mountains of snow this winter. Really 9 feet of snow. I have shoveled so much snow I have the best arms in work out history. And these boots have been on my feet every inch of the way. Our drive way is half a football field long, I have shoveled it in these boots & my feet stay warm & dry. I have worn these boots on our icy roofs covered with 3 feet of snow, and my feet have stayed warm & dry. And, these boots are so comfortable. From day one I have not had one single blister or sore spot & I have put miles on these boots. I like them so much I just had to buy another pair as a back up. I don't want to be without my boots ever again.
My wife bought these one month before our trip after her pair of 10 year old Vasques blew out. We thought the softer leather would break in quicker. She loved them and with some gore-tex gaiters they kept out all the scree, dust, and mud the mountain could throw at us. She was warm on the summit at 0 degrees (f). I bought the sturdier all leather vasques 8 months before our climb and I think they were just getting broken in by the time of the trip.
