Not sure where these have been all my life. Watched pilgrimage on BBC decided Michaela Strachan must know a good pair of boots, screen shot and Google search led me to these. Blue light discount made it more palatable but god even without the discount 100% worth every penny! So light weight and fit like a glove, nice arch support also. 1st walk only about 2km, very good. Been out today for a 2nd walk, got lost, 13.2 km later no blisters!! No wearing in required!! Excellent grip, I was a bit cautious scrambling down hill because my old Berghaus weren't great on grip, but not a single slip in these. I am very impressed, 10/10 definitely recommend!!
