New Boots!

[Tipi Walter]

I finally upgrade my old Zamberlan Evo Lite boots size 10 to size 10.5 and will donate my old Zams to any museum willing to take them.

They've had the course and when new were a little tight with Smartwool mountaineer socks so the 10.5 works well, esp after a long day with swelling feet. (And smelly feet). Btw, they're gtx so I can stand in small creek up to six inches deep and not get my socks wet.

I get a good deal for $200 as they're blue leather which no one wants whereas regular brown is $300. Left is size 10.5, right is size 10 and all shrunk up.

Does wearing cleats have a very negative effect on the toes of your boots?

Where did you find the blue leather Zamberlan Evo Lite boots?

Amazon, just go thru all the options.

I've seen this before but don't think the screws would stay in the sole. Or at least I'd lose a few here and there. Plus, microspikes are never used except on the most difficult trails and stowed 90% of the time. But when they're needed they really help.
