Comments about GARMONT Men's Zenith Mid GTX Hiking Boots:
I bought these boots to replace my Garmont Syncro, which are too warm in the summer. I tried on a size 1/2 too small and was pleased with the fit in the store. I took them on a flat trail and they performed well, I even jogged in them. The were so comfortable I decided to take them on a 4000' hike. They performed well on the approach, but once I began the steep ascent, gravity caused my heel to slip painfully backwards. Nothing I did eased the pain, and I eventually had to untie the shoe and wear them like flip flops. Not fun on loose rocks. I returned them for a half size larger, installed super feet insoles, and wore thicker socks and a liner. The pain returned on the steeps during the next hike. It seemed these boots were not made for steep climbing. Returned them again for Asolo 520s, which are exceptionally comfortable on steep inclines.

I'm a distance runner. I hike about 20 miles per day and I have narrow heels. These are the best fitting shoes so far.

Comments about GARMONT Men's Zenith Mid GTX Hiking Boots:
Overall, I think these are very well designed shoes, using proven material (ie. Vibram soles). However, it took several exchanges until I got a pair that had no manufacturing defects. If and when the quality control is improved these shoes would go to the head of the class.

Comments about GARMONT Men's Zenith Mid GTX Hiking Boots:
I've worn Garmont Flash boots for years and never thought they could be improved upon until I tried the Zenith model. A subtle difference to be sure but an improvement over an already reliable boot.

Comments about GARMONT Men's Zenith Mid GTX Hiking Boots:
Very comfortable boots. Grip on these is the best of any boot I have owned in dry conditions. I bought these for an extended trip out west and they were great for bagging peaks in CO, UT and WY. No blisters or foot pain in a month of heavy use for 10 mile mile, 4-5K foot elevation gain hikes. The only con is that the upper is not the most durable (but still okay). I treat stuff pretty hard and spent a lot of time on rocks and the uppers are showing a little wear. Great boot for scrambling.

Comments about GARMONT Men's Zenith Mid GTX Hiking Boots:
I've never had a pair of hiking boots except for military issued. Definitely a lot more comfortable. I was a little surprised at how heavy they were and made me think if I should've gotten the low cut boots, but I think the ankle support is worth it. Definitely going to take some time to break in. I did cross a stream to check the water proofing. No issues. I have a feeling these will be even better after a few more miles.

Merchant response: Sorry these boots did not work out for you! You're pros/cons seemed a bit contradictory but we're glad we were able to get you in a boot that feels good on the steeps!
