I use these boots for archery season, rifle season, and my work. I literally wear boots year round. I have been through many boots and many brands and the Crispi Nevadas are by far the best boot I have worn. Reasons I love them: #1 no break in period. I am able to wear them on a hunt immediately out of the box. #2 they are durable. I wear them year round in all conditions and they stand to the test. #3 for me, this boot feels tight and concise to my foot. They are not big and clunky. I am able to stalk, climb rock, and climb over blow down with precise and confident footing.
I wear these boots in the summer fighting wild fire, I wear them back country archery hunting elk, spring bear hunting, chasing antelope in the prairie, fall rifle seasons, even on the rocks and cliffs chasing mountain goat and big horn sheep. This boot is the best all around boot I have ever worn. No complaints. Highly recommend.
