If there is only one piece of gear I could save from a fire, it would be by Asolo boots. I have hiked hundreds of miles in these boots, and they are built to last. They have…

I did a 14-miler in them pretty much straight out of the box- couldn't be happier. There are a little on the heavy side, but otherwise like hiking on clouds. I found them to…

These boots are constructed really well... the materials are great and they seem to be holding together nicely! Only problem: the full-grain leather is more stiff than I like,…

The fit is true to size, and they conform well to my feet. As long as our feet are about the same shape you won't have any problems. The day I got these I took a not-so-quick…

So far I am satisfied with this boot-It is durable*, waterproof, breathable and has a good grip for a non-vibram outsole.
*Watch the metal hooks on the laces, as they tend to…
