Strength:
The boots were pretty comfortable for backpacking and running around town for the first couple of years. After that the leather near the toe began to tear through near the toe (probably from neglect/improper care) and it felt like the plastic reinforcing inside the heel of one of my boots had split and was rubbing me unfavorably. Trevose foundation repair Weakness:
None so far. |

The fit and comfort was very good throughout, however the toe rubber is starting to delam a bit and the lacing hardware is showing some stress. https://www.leifsonbrothershvac.com/ Weakness:

Strength:
these boots are excellent for hikers who want a lightweight and grippy fit. They work well on a variety of terrains, from deserts to snowscapes. Try them before buying, though—these do tend to run narrow. Highly recommended by foundation repair contractor Weakness:

Strength:
Nice fitting boot for narrow to normal widths. Will need thin volume socks for wide feet. Nice three season boot, for moderate loads on trails and with some off trail capability. Not really set up for monster loads or extended hikes. Recommended by Countertop Installation Company. Weakness:

Bought these because they fit my wide duck shaped feet. Pulled off a piece of the lacing hardware the first week and had to take them back for repair. Abused them over the next few years. After the first year, one of the rubber toe covers delaminated and tore. The boots were pretty comfortable for backpacking and running around town for the first couple of years. After that the leather near the toe began to tear through near the toe (probably from neglect/improper care) and it felt like the plastic reinforcing inside the heel of one of my boots had split and was rubbing me unfavorably. Customer Service Gary Kings had the lacing hardware replaced, no problem. |

I have no complaints about the comfort and support these boots offer. Top notch in my book. But they do have one real inherent weak point. Where the outer tongue attaches to the boot merrel seems to have cut corners and used mesh instead of leather. Even after waterproofing, after walking through damp rush you can feel the moisture starting to seep in. Eventually after a few hours your feet are soaked. C'mon merrel, if you are going to build a boot that looks and acts like a tank, don't put in such a shoddy job where nobody looks when purchasing. Similar Products Used: None |

Complains: A little clunky, a little heavy (about 3 lbs. 13oz.), tred pattern can hold too much material and cause loss of traction, eyelets are a known problem. Customer Service With the first pair I had, an eyeletet broke just after purcahse. EMS replaced them no problems. Second pair still going strong. Similar Products Used: Hi-Tek Magnums, my favorite boot, period. Soles are the best, but wear very quickly on rocky trails. All other surfaces excellent. |
