I will NEVER spend another dime on ANYTHING with your name on it! I would not recommend these shoes to anyone nor will I ever buy another pair of this brand shoe of any kind. The boots are very durable and comfortable. I’ve had them for seven months and they’re awesome. One good note is that they are comfortable boots, but only good for walking in an office on carpet or smooth level surfaces. Rough terrain is definitely not recommended.
The car stopped with the left front tire on top of the instep. After about 3 or 4 minutes and me yelling for help, people came and I told them to put the car in drive to get it off my foot. Then 40 miles into them and my forefoot started hurting on rocks where it hadn’t before. After the next hike I checked the boots. Feeling the sole in the ball area I can feel an internal shift or split of the rubber that opens my foot up to the ground.
If you frequently go camping or hiking, you know the weather can sometimes be very uncooperative. Having comfortable gear that is warm, waterproof, and durable can be the difference in how enjoyable the adventure or trip is. Within a month of wearing these great looking shoes fell apart at the sole. I know shoes pretty much and these fell apart due to terribly low quality materials and probably low quality workmanship. I’ve walked hundreds of miles in cheap sneakers that have held up and here are hiking boots that can’t even make it to 50 miles. She sent me a bar code to use at the store to make the return so I didn’t have to find the receipt or anything else.
That said I have had no blisters or hot spots. I have walked in the rain and my feet did not get wet although I have not waded through any streams. I bought ozark trail backpack these a couple of years ago on sale and as I had no immediate need put them away. I have started training for a backpacking trip and decided to use these.
Plus, if you camp with your partner, you can buy two and zip them together to make one giant sleeping bag. It’s perfect for camping trips or music festivals. If you don’t have a lot of extra cash to spend on outdoor gear, or just looking to test the waters with camping, the affordability of this brand is hard to beat.
I understand where the roofer is coming from but he must buy a pair every month. I’m not even on concrete all day and mine wore out. They don’t last as long as the $130 boots sitting in my closet that I’ll probably pass down to my son, but I can buy a new pair every season for less.
And it’s a country flip if they make a bad odor. I wore the last pair shoes for about two hours and could start smelling them. Switch shoes (after washing again) and nothing.
After he checked me out, he said there was no noticeable swelling or discoloration. I purchased a pair of men’s Hikers to use while I deliver the morning newspaper. I was quite satisfied with the fit, comfort and that they kept my feet dry. I did not anticipate what else they would do to save my feet. Bottom line is these hikers are terrible for actual hiking. Not high quality, but then, they are not high price.
You can shop the Ozark Trail line at Walmart (yes, they carry it!) to save BIG and stock up on supplies for survival and for fun. Check out the top 10 camping must-haves we wouldn’t leave home without. They also offer a large assortment of hiking and camping gear, so you can find almost anything that you would need for a nice weekend adventure.
I bought a pair of hiking boots at Walmart, lasted maybe 2 weeks before the sole split and exposed my foot to the elements. You would think that a $30 pair of hiking boots would last a bit longer. Anyone who wants to tackle rugged hikes or thinks they can go creek stomping in a ozark trail backpack $30-$40 pair of hiking boots without some issues is a dingleberry. The harsh reviews for this product on this thread are from people with unrealistic expectations. I think some of them would be mad if they couldn’t traverse the entire Colorado Trail on a Huffy mountain bike.
