Merrell Moab Mid Waterproof
Best hiking boots!
March 16, 2013
Reviewer: Emily from Bellingham, WA
I bought these boots for an upcoming trip to Israel. I knew I needed to have sturdy and comfortable boots. These Merrell's are honestly the comfiest shoes I have ever worn! The fit is incredible. The tread on the bottom is very sufficient and will be perfect for the rocky terrain I'll be traveling on. I cannot recommend these boots more. I range from a size 9 to 9 1/2 with most shoes and the 9 1/2 for these boots fits me perfectly. I've worn them in down pouring rain and my feet stayed perfectly dry. I love, love, love these boots!

Nevados Boomerang II Mid
First-time hiker
March 13, 2013
Reviewer: Taylor from Eau Claire, WI
These arrived today and I'm already excitedly breaking them in. I'm leaving on a camping/hiking trip for spring break next week and needed my first pair of hiking boots - these were cute and the price was right so I bought them. Likes: They seem very well-made and durable; the rubber sole is thick and has great traction, the suede upper is soft, the laces are long and sturdy. The ankle support is excellent and the padding around the ankle is very comfortable. Dislikes: The toe box seems wide and roomy, though the shoe otherwise fits well. I'll be keeping them since my trip is so soon, but I'm going to put some heavy-duty insoles in them in hopes of them fitting better.

Clarks Wave.Trek
Most Comfortable Shoes Ever!
March 12, 2013
Reviewer: Diane from Hamilton, NJ
I was looking for a lightweight, WATERPROOF, comfortable shoe and came across these. I had already owned Clarks Wave.Run, which are fantastic, so I figured I'd like these too. They are honestly the most comfortable pair of sneaker/shoes I've ever owned. I love the look because they are a cross between a sneaker and a shoe and can be worn casually. They are also made well. My feet don't get tired standing, nor does my back hurt walking in these because they put you in a forward motion, almost rolling off the toes. No inserts or break-in time were needed for me - they were comfortable right out of the box. In fact, I loved them so much that I bought them in brown too! Can't say enough good things about them!!!

5.11 Tactical Tactical Trainer Mid WP 2.0
5.11 Tactical Trainer
March 12, 2013
Reviewer: Al from Nyack, NY
The 5.11 Tactical Trainer Mid WP is yet another great product by 5.11 Tactical, which is known for its excellent high performance product line. This shoe offers both style and good fit along with performance. The fit is snug, and the shoe provides good foot control in activities that demand it, such as abrupt changes in direction or sudden stops while walking briskly, climbing stairs or even running. The specially designed laces stay tied throughout the entire time of wear, without the slightest slippage, which means no tripping on untied laces -- ever! The lining and foot bed combine to offer both a good fit, comfort and shock absorption, while the soles provide excellent traction. This shoe should fit the bill for anyone needing a good athletic style shoe combined with superior performance in the field. As such, this shoe should appeal to off-duty or undercover law enforcement officers, as well as others. It is also excellent for the general public, too.

Reviewer: Linda from Mahopac, NY
The boots are true to size. The brown leather was a bit scuffed. I love the shoes though and they are very comfortable.
