'LIGHTWEIGHT BUT STABLE WALKING BOOT'

Strengths:
Good grip, very stable for a lightweight boot, slick lacing system.

Weaknesses:
The Climadry liner means they can get sweaty in hot conditions.

Overall:
Up to the snowline these are great boots. Relatively low cut, the laterally stiff sole and the plastic stabilising things hold your feet well in position and internal padding helps make them comfortable. Medium wide cut, can't really fault them apart from the sweatiness of the waterproof lining in hot conditions.

'DAMN FINE BOOTS!'

Strengths:
Stability is superb, the Senesifit wings realy work. Compared to others their realitively light. Thay fit like an old pair of slippers straight out of the box. Plus they look modern and little bit different from bog standard leather boots. Excellent value for money, if you look round you can pick them up for £85-£95 and if your lucky even less. My feet always come out intacked, and I look foward to putting them on the next morning! None of my mates seem to say the same about their boots!

Weaknesses:
After around 1500 miles a gap appeared betwen the rubber and the outer leather, this was soon filled with glue and hasn't given me any grief since. After around 2000 miles the inner soles were knackered, but these are easily replaced, and the same applies for all walking boots. The mark two version has the new improved sole, but the Swamp colours not as nice as the Blue!

Overall:
Seen me through my Bronze, Silver, Gold DofE, Chief Scouts Challange and nemourous other experditions! Ideal if your looking for a boot that'll carry you through almost anything, perfect for backpacking!

'GOOD ALL ROUND BOOT'

Strengths:
Comfortable,light,waterproof

Weaknesses:
Hot/ sweaty when used on warmer days,

Overall:
After having them for a couple years now, doing a good few miles and some interesting scrambles in them, i can honestly say that they are a good all round boot. They are very comfortable to walk in straight from the box, and very easy going on your feet. My only comment against them is that the edge lugs of the sole are a bit to soft when used on higher grade scrambles as they tend to flex when you really need them to edge. But all in all a great boot and pretty good value for money.

'HARD WEARING, COMFORTABLE AND GOOD VALUE.'

Strengths:
Excellent sole design, grippy when wet! Comfortable and hard wearing

Weaknesses:
Slightly hot in very warm conditions

Overall:
After 4 years of heavy use they are staring to show signs of wear around the edges but the soles are still pretty intact. They are still waterproof and very comfortable. Just the right amount of support for rugged rock without being too heavy. After trips to the Alps, Atlas, all of the UK ranges they are still going strong - best boots I've ever used.

' BETTER THAN GREAT BOOT'

Strengths:
The finest boot I have ever put on,sturdy, but not clumpy,aggressive, but charming with it.Bomb proof.

Weaknesses:
laces have a tendency to come undone if you do not lock 'em down first time

Overall:
The shame of it is that they have stopped making them and I can't find any in my size (11) any where and belive me I have tried every where.
