Shoe Size: Felt true to size

Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support
Look great, but complete nightmare to walk in - Broke these in over two months to prep for hike on the Inca trail and Apu Ausangate in Peru. During the break in, they werent horribly comfortable, but I expected that - at least no blisters, etc... First day of my hike I ended up with a bruised hot spot on my right shin and a full thickness 6" blister on my left heel. Tried replacing in a number of patterns, shin pads, blister pad, nothing worked. Ended up wearing my Vibram FiveFingers for the rest of the hike without any trouble. What a waste of money. It drives me nuts to buy hiking boots like these without having any inkling as to whether this kind of thing is going to be a problem until youre actually on the hike.

Shoe Size: Felt true to size
Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked
Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support
Wonderful Boot, Typical Asolo width... The second Asolo releases this boot in a wide size I will purchase a pair. No sooner, No later. If Salomon's or Timberlands typically fit you, I would bet this boot would fit fine. For those of us who need a bit more room (Thank you Keen) these just fall short. They're also quite a bit taller than other runs of Asolo hikers. Definitely a large but very sturdy boot.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Timberland, Salomon, or North Face boots

State of the art - These boots are awesome. The craftsmanship is exceptional. The comfort and support is great. The rubber toe guard is key for protecting the leather. The lacing system is superb it allows the boot to snug up perfectly. The lace hook in the middle of the tongue allows you to get your heel all the way back, as well as create great ankle support. They are pricey but worth every penny. The Power Matic system and the structure of the shoe feel like it propels you forward. I've never experienced any boot like it before. I had a pair of Vasques for 8 years and these boots are built way better so I expect to get a lot of miles out of them. Asolo has mastered the art of boot making.
