Classic, Tough, Awesome - Seldom does a boot inspire awe like this beauty does. It has a classic European hiking boot style while still being perfectly functional. Initially I had worries when I first put it on, my feet got a dull ache almost immediately, after the first walk my feet were burning. The next day I put them on again, no ache. Four hours later my feet were sore, but as the day went on my feet began to feel better and better, by the end of the days it was like I was wearing a set of oversized slippers. Now, they are like two hand molded extensions of my feet. As for grip, well the Vibram soles are awesome, as would be expected. One thing I didn't expect is that it would add two more inches to my height, which on those heavy and thick trails may be a problem, but if you are on a thick and heavy trail I doubt you'll care much about two more inches. They seem barely a half size smaller then listed size, but that may expand a bit as they break in, too early to tell. All in all I think the folks at Scarpa have it right.
