Fantastic quality - Aku Transalpina GTX Hiking Boot - Mens

I have yet to wear these hiking so this review is a little early, but my initial impressions were that these boots are of exceptional quality. I bought a pair for my wife, looked those over and decided that since the model was on clearance at a great price I bought a pair for myself.

Boot fits true to size. Has great arch support. It is stiff however, but I attribute that to the way the boot is made with that exo-skeleton type of footbed just above the sole. I'm certain that they will break in quickly. No ankle rolling in these boots and no feeling rocks or ruts through the sole. I would highly recommend you try them out--especially if you can find them on clearance like I did.
