I generally prefer Vibram Five Fingers, but have used practically every hiking shoe out at one time or another.

I just bought a pair of these for running and working out. So far I really like them. But not sure If I would wear them into the Back country.. Interesting thought though!

These would make a nice stalking shoe I bet. Might be better than the sock option I all to often use

This was my exact thought when i put the shoe on.. One suggestion, i have not looked at all the shoes they make but one of the newer versions has a bicycle type tred on the bottom. I bet these would be perfect for this exact situation..

My lowas. Grabbing a snack mid-day, just hanging on the edge of a bedding area. Ended up killing my bull in this area, 5 days later.

Seems like a lot of people use the Kenetrek's. Do you just order from their website? What did the Non-insulated ones cost you?

PS: Nice website! Great job!

I wanted to touch them first so I went down to Wholesale Sports they carry them now. They ran just north of $300.00

Solomon XA Pro 3D for summer scouting, through hiking and pack rafting. Mountain hiking and sheep season I wear La Sportiva Glaciers with aftermarket pink super feet insoles to add cushion and make up for the fact that the smallest size they make is still a half size to big for my tiny feet.

Inov8 TerRocs for my trail running and light hiking. Lowa Renegades for the rest. Just got these to replace my Vasque Breeze GTX's. Really liking the Lowas.

I picked up a pair of the Kennetrek Mt hunter's this past summer prior to my fall/winter hunts for an extremely good deal. They have been great for just about all conditions so far and saved my butt on my sheep hunt this year!
