WasatchvoyageGreat Boot/Shoe Hybrid.

Voted 5/5

I purchased these to use on the less aggressive trail routes, lighter than my conventional hiking boots which are needed for more rugged terrain. The grip on the soles is impressive, and the rubber covered toe helps with abrasion from rock. Very sturdy for a cross training type boot/shoe. The comfort and fit these provide is exceptional for those of use who have a wider footprint.
