Hasn't voted | I've worn these boots 7x and am returning them to REI tonight. Other than the gargantuous blister it placed on my right little toe, these boots caused extreme metatarsalgia (around the first metatarsal head), a painful foot condition in the metatarsal region of the foot ~ the area just before the toes, more commonly referred to as the ball-of-the-foot. I initially thought it was due to my insoles (Superfeet) being worn (only ~ 6 months old) but now I've come to the conclusion that it is the boot. Since these boots retail for about $165, I guess you "get what you pay for." I'm planning on spending over $200 for my next pair...Montrail... | | Posted May 30, 2007 5:16 pm | | Katy Y | odd fit | | 
Hasn't voted | These feel great when you first put them on. However, the tongue does not seem to cushion well, causing extreme soreness to the front of the foot/ankle area over time. They also seem to run a bit big - am going to REI to trade down a half size and if those don't quite work, well, I'll be checking this section again for recs.
UPDATE: Exchanged for a size 7 (generally my hiking boots are a 7.5 -8). They fit great. BUT. Still an issue with pressure where the tongue sits. I think I'll keep monkeying with them a few more times before giving up. | | Posted Jun 30, 2007 7:44 pm | | katpat23 | Beware the Blisters | | Hasn't voted | Perhaps it's not the fault of these shoes. I've had blisters with other boots, even after breaking them in for hundreds of miles. But I'm really struggling with blisters on the backs of my heels with these. They may just be too small, which would be my bad. I bought a fancy insole that heated up to fit my foot, so it can't be the rubbish insole's fault. Sorry this is disjointed -- I'm very tired -- but I thought you should know! I'm going to try duck tape next time I walk, but it may just be prudent to get something else. | | Posted Apr 6, 2008 7:51 pm |
