This was a great purchase, especially with the 20% coupon bringing the price down under $100.  I was about to use my REI 20% coupon for these boots on REI.com, but at the last minute I thought to check Amazon, and I'm glad I did.  Saved about $25.<br />The boots are very comfortable, especially once broken in after a couple solid hikes.  I require a wide size, and when I got these they seemed a bit to snug at first.  However, as I predicted after I wore them around the house for several hours I could tell they'd likely loosen up a bit on the trail.  And when I hiked in them I wasn't disappointed.  I've given these boots a real beating on some tough trails with big elevation gain and loss, as well as over granite rock fields.  The stayed pretty dry even in moderate rain and snow, but eventually your feet will get wet if you're in serious wet conditions for long (true for most true hiking boots vs mountaineering boots).
