AKU is the best

I use these boots for daily use. All day every day comfort, with the ability to do some real day hiking. As with all Italian AKU products the constuction is top notch. Pricey, but worth it. This is the 3rd pair AKU's I have owned.

Love this boot! I'm on my 3rd pair. They're great for narrow feet or small volume feet. Stay away if you have wide feet! The grip of the tread is great, but it does wear fairly quickly. They're not quite stiff enough to my liking for backpacking, but for day hiking, they can't be beat.

Best Boot!!

This boot wears well, and the Gortex held up longer than other boots I've owned. Once it is broken in, the boot is as comfortable as a shoe, but solid enough for rough terrain.

Absolutely the best mid-length boot I have ever owned. Forget the Merrill, the Danners, the Columbia...This is about the 8th pair I have owned. Cabela's stopped carrying them and it took me over 6 months to find this website. Save yourself time and money, order two pair. Not made for serious hiking (sheep hunting)? Excellent for the rest of your 80% of trekking.

I originaly purchased the shoe at Cabela's under another name I bought two pair of the boots, and I have had the last pair for about two years, they wear great and are more comfortable than my running shoes I work on a farm and I put them to extreme conditions on a regular schedule...I did have a hard time finding the brand name and model numbers thanks for the great web site it helped a bunch
