Best backpacking boots - Salewa Alp Flow Mid GTX Hiking Boots - Women's

I got these boots to take with me on a backpacking trip in Patagonia. I didn't have time to break in the boots at all, so I was really nervous. I'm pleased to say that I didn't get a single blister from these boots! I wore them for over 2 weeks straight, while carrying a 45 lb pack. All the rest of the travel companions had to hike in their sandals, etc, because of severe blisters. Not only did I not get a blister, but my feet stayed completely dry AND not sweaty. I was worried the Gortex would make wearing these uncomfortable with sweaty feet, but it wasn't an issue all. Lastly, I love the look of these. I got a lot of compliments on them. I would recommend these boots to everyone!
