Review for
Hanwag Tatra Backpacking Boot - Men's
The HanWag Tatra boots are well made however they are stiff and the support is hard with no cushioning insole. I hiked daily with them for ten days. They did not break-in. My 3 to 5 mile daily hikes resulted in lots of discomfort, painful rubbing of my ankle and foot bones, and generally overall sore feet.
I strongly suggest paying a little more and upgrading this boot to the HanWag Lhasa model. (That's what I did)Similar design, plus the Yak skin is softer and much more comfortable. Literally, glove like softness. Boots can be tied tight and still maintain comfortable fit with support. The insole is a dense memory foam type of material that molds to my foot and absorbs impact. I am 6' 5" 220lbs. Normally wear a size 12US - the size 13US fit me perfectly.
