Love my new boots. Feel light and airy, like Salomon Quest, but with a narrower fit, which is what I needed. Also tried Asolo Equalon (based on their 520 model), but it felt much more like clodhoppers. Very little breaking needed. Great sole protection and ankle support, which I don't get with my Salomon GTX (which is a good boot otherwise). And they are kind of jazzy looking, without being ostentatious. They tie up easily, but don't over tighten. Foot will stay planted in the boot with only moderate tie down. Happy Trails!
