Welcome to our collection of day hiking boot reviews! After doing test hikes on the trails and cutting the boot in half in our lab, we were able to describe how each boot fits, feels, and performs. Additionally, we published more than 20 parameters that quantitatively describe the boot! This level of objectivity is improved even more with us buying all the shoes on our own.
