Just recently bought these and what a fantastic walking boot. Much comfier than a North Face pair i am familiar with. They are very easy to slip on and off, fantastic grip, lightweight and the best waterproof boots i have worn. Would strongly recommend to any keen hikers looking to cover lots of miles in all conditions!

I am very impressed with these boots. They are extremely comfy from the get go and do not need wearing in at all. I know people have had issues with the sock-like collar around the ankle, but once you know how to get them on, they are not an issue at all- and do not take nearly as long to get on as people say. Worse comes to worse, get a shoe horn for them. I could possibly see an issue for people with very wide feet, as my brother took slightly longer to get them on with the same method (and his feet are wider yet both size 10). They are substantially lighter than my previous pare of mid boots and they are definitely fast boots. I have yet to take them through severe weather, but so far they have been superb. They would be 5 stars, but as I mentioned about people with wide feet having an issue is the only reason so far for them to be 4. 

These are good quality lightweight boots. My previous Berghaus boots lasted over 15years, mainly festival use, but after visiting a store I saw how light new boots are I decided to upgrade. I went for Berghaus again as I knew my size (0.5 size bigger) and appreciate there durability.  I wore then for the Glastonbury Festival and they were very comfortable. The sock is tight putting them on but that also stops anything falling into them. I walked around 40 miles in them with no negative comments to report. They were also trodden on with no visible lasting marks now I home. After a light clean I suspect they will still look new. They were used with only light rain and wet grass, I cannot comment on how waterproof yet, but I felt no moisture coming through. I definitely recommend.

Really really pleased with the look and feel of the boots, nice design also, but... it takes me almost 5 minutes to get the boots on, my worry is that the loop at the back of the waterproof insert to pull it over the heel, will come away, and it will then be very very difficult to wear these boots.. real shame about that awkward insert.. It will be interesting to see how others review the boots..
