Best pair of hiking boots i have ever owned. - Scarpa Zodiac Plus GTX Backpacking Shoes - Men's

Dropped into Campsaver one evening after work. Knew I was going to buy a pair of boots but wasn’t sure what. Ended up trying on a half a dozen brands and ended up buying these. I’ve owned several other boots with big name brands; Merrill, North Face, and Salewa. These are the first pair of Scarpa boots I have ever bought. The initial fit was felt good. Sizing was spot on. It wasn’t until I took them out on the mountain that I felt like they shown their true potential. Just recently returned from a 24 Mile backpacking trip in the Unita Mountains. My feet have never felt so good after such a trip! No blisters, no hot spots, no rubbing my skin raw. They were very easy on my feet. Don’t get me wrong, I put them through the test. From crossing wet bogs with several inches of standing water (feet stayed perfectly dry) to ascending extremely steep knarly rocky passes. These boots exceeded all my expectations of what any hiking boot was capable of. Water tight, extremely durable, excellent ankle support. I would have to absolutely recommend these boots. In the past I always felt that my feet would be the deciding factor of how far to plan a trip. I no longer feel that way with these boots.
