I ordered these but returned because I did not like the fit for my foot. This review is just to help others with fit decisions. Boot runs true to length with a wider toe box than most other brands have today. The boot has a stiff leather heal with kind of a ridge where the leather ends and the ankle padding begins. If you do not mind it than it is really a great boot. For me I know I would hav

I cannot comment much on the longterm use of these boots, but I just completed my first day hike in them after a couple walks around town. Here is what I like:
The toe box is large. They are more breathable than a gore lined boot. They have decent flex and are not too stiff right out of the box. The leather is of a really high quality - water rolls right off it. They come with their own inser

Lost a pair of Zamberlan boots when I fell in crossing a stream in the Wind Rivers, they were around my neck, I came out bruised but the boots went down stream. This brand has never disappointed me, quality leather boot, great fit. Cost has always bothered me but they were in your outlet and you gave me a coupon..... really hard to turn down.

The Zamberlan 308 Trekker boots are evidence that Old World Craftsmanship is not dead. They are constructed with an eye to detail. If you are looking for a boot that will last a long time, wear very well, and wrap your feet in amazing comfort grab a pair of these before they're gone.

Many years ago I had a pair of Vasque Sundowner hiking boots that were made in Italy. Those boots lasted for over 7 years with almost everyday use including a year long backpacking trip through South America. After those wore out I got a new pair of Vasque sundowner gtx boots in preparation for a year long research trip to Costa Rica. I did not realize it at the time but the new vasque's were made

Fit perfectly from the first wearing. Break in period was a series of 5 mile hikes. No hot spots or problems. The toe box is large and my heel is held well. I have a normal arch and it is well supported. I usually hike 5-8 miles 4-5 times each week on a steep trail with some loose gravel. Boots give me a very secure feeling. I don't have to deal with water so I can't evaluate them for that.

I bought these boots because I had read very disappointing reviews of another very popular boot that used to be made in Italy, but is now coming from China. Conversely, I had read many rave reviews of the Zamberlan Trekkers, some from former fans of the other brand I was interested in. I was sold on the Trekkers by three things: they are made in Italy, the reviews of serious hikers, and Campsave
