"ALL TERRAIN: From New Hampshire's White Mountains to southeast Alaska, testers hiked this burly, all-leather, waterproof boot through miles of rain, mud, creeks, and found it's waterproofing infallible.
This boot may need mention in your will.
Ably handled unstable, rocky terrain and the worst bushwacks. Super supportive. The Tibet Pro will carry as a big a load as you're willing.
After a rough traverse of the Presidential Range, one tester said They barely look used." - Backpacker Magazine Gear Guide

it's a good one!!!
I'm an odd bird, in so much as I buy high tech gear that I use as a lawn maintenance entrepreneur, not for hiking the grand tetons. In the fall, I'm often carrying 60 to 90 lbs of wet leaves in a can on my shoulder on uneven hilly terrain,or walking with a 50 lb back pack blower for an hour at a time, this in Atlanta Ga., a city in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains, quite hilly terrain. I bought these boots to stabilize my feet and ankles under the load and my feet have been thanking me ever since. I've only owned them about a week, but , at this point, they are far and away the best boots I've ever used !!!!

The best...........
Six pairs used and owned. ONLY one pair came apart too soon under heavy duty outdoor working use. Support like NO other! Not for the coffee shop types.
