Great heavy duty hiking boots - Zamberlan 1996 Vioz Lux GTX RR Backpacking Boot - Men's

Bought these for an upcoming trip to Iceland. Needed some quality, heavy-duty, waterproof boots and these fit the bill. My daughter has had a pair for quite a few years and they have worn really well and I expect this pair to do the same.

I have only about 25 miles on them so far but they have been great. After about 5 miles, they were broken in with no hot spots. Fit is good for my foot which is pretty skinny but they don't move around and heel stays tight. The sole is very stiff but that is what I was looking for. The construction quality is top notch. I ordered my normal size of 11.5 and sizing was perfect. My only very minor complaint so far is they squeak, particularly the right boot, where the leather on the tongue meets the leather on the inside of the cuff. I'm sure it will go away as they break in further and if not, it's not big deal. You know they are good boots when you have to look that hard to find something "wrong".

I would definitely buy these again and convinced my wife to get a pair also.
