I bought these boots for function not a fashion show. They are comfortable and sturdy. I was worried about the leather's durability since it is very soft. I have been pleasantly suprised so far. I've put about 40 miles on these without any complaints. If you want a tough boot that meets the trail head on, I would definitely gives these boots a shot.

This review is actually about two things 1st The customer service at Merrell is totally outstanding. When I see a review stating that there was no reponse I know it slipped thru the cracks. I have always gotten a response in a timely manner. The service has been courteous and rep pleasent. 2nd On this boot what is it suppose to be? leather,suede,cloth and rubber just doesn't mesh. These were just plain weird and not what I look for in a hiking boot. Since these were a comp replacement I can't send them back so I guess I'll donate them and buy a different pair
