I purchased these to increase my boot line up for specific hunts. These are great for all my summer scouting, early archery deer and antelope hunts. I am also looking forward to testing these out on several early coues hunts in AZ, and September bull elk hunts. Very comfortable, great sole for the harsh lava rock terrain of AZ, and no break in required. Crispi hit the mark on these boots.
Update December 2022. Well after 4 months of using these boots in the Az terrain, the right toe band is separating from the boot as seen in the photo. I hope Crispi will replace these. need to get w guidefitter for warranty on these boots. I was hoping they would last longer than 4 months.
UPDATE 01/30/23.
Crispi warrant was outstanding. They sent me a pre shipping label, and got these boots fixed in less than a week. Thank for the great customer service. Wore them again quail hunting on some rocky ground and will use them on several upcoming javalina hunts. I will keep an eye and see how the repair holds up.
