Customer Reviews Asolo Fugitive GTX

These are hands down the best boots I have ever owned! I just got back from a five day backpacking trip in the Adirondacks and could not be happier. My feet feel like they could do another five days no problem. The boots were new to me two weeks before the trip and I only wore them around the city for maybe five or six days and they felt broken in already. I have very sensitive feet and always get blisters when hiking running or playing sports. With these boots I have not gotten a single blister; amazing! The boots had great traction on hard pack, slick rock, and wet conditions. The waterproofing seemed to hold up fine in stream crossing and pretty heavy rain. They feel true to size with excellent support where you need it. The only negative would be the insoles which are not much more than a cardboard insert. Replace these and you are all set.

These boots are great. I received them, wore them a total of about 2 hours in the house, just to make sure they felt OK, then took them to Alaska where I wore them for 10 days straight in constant rain, hiking through creeks, rocky trails, and also in town. Totally waterproof, at least up a couple of inches, light, and very good traction. I have a wide foot/high arch, so many boots do not fit (squeeze toes). These are good for me, even on downhills.

I've been looking for a lighter pair of hiking boots for some time now, and these Asolo Fugitives have turned out to be the perfect choice. I've been wearing a pair of Lowa Alpine Guide boots that are just a tad too tight in the toe, and heavy for casual day hikes in the local forest. The boot has plenty of quality features that Asolo is known for, and the attention to detail is spot on. The outsole is quite rigid and adds a lot of stability on uneven terrain. Because the outsole is so rigid, you should take the time to break the boots in before a long hike, especially in the hills. From this point forward, Asolo is my boot of choice for the great outdoors.

They\'re a bit ugly, but they are also the best boots I\'ve ever owned. I\'ve had my current pair for 3 years and they\'re still going strong after hiking about 200 miles with them. They breathe fairly well for being waterproof, and they\'ve never failed to get a solid foothold on any terrain.

I bought these to replace my worn out Vasque boots. I was blown away at how comfortable these were, like casual shoes. I bought 12 wide and they fit very good except the heel is a little loose. I'm used to needing to break boots in so I hope this isn't a problem down the road. Excellent style and look. Zappos is more expensive than every other site I went to. I was disappointed by this, but I kept the boot because I had already worn them to work in.

These really are great. I'm finally throwing out my old pair and starting on the new. I've had these boots for nearly five years and worn them almost every day. 18 months in Iraq, then back to the US. They have stood up in the creeks, on hot asphalt, and in the snow. I'm always afraid they will change what I like, so I'll probably buy another pair and hide them in the closet.

These are the best boots I've ever owned. The support and comfort make them the only shoe I own (and I have many) that I can wear all day long day in and day out, and still have energy in my feet. If the Asolo last fits your foot, you will not go wrong with this boot. I've worn Vasque, Technica, Lowa, Ecco, Timberland, and more. Asolo IS THE BEST!
