Was having difficulty finding a hiking shoe that fit after finding out my feet swelled after a few miles.  These filled that role well.

Pros:  They kept my feet dry, excellent support (didn't even know an ankle was slightly sprained until after taking the shoe off), surprisingly durable.

Cons:  found the sole & tread lacking. That said, this shoe made it through 100 miles of the Appalachian Trail, though did realize by mile 60 I was in the wrong shoe.  When replaced, shoe was still in excellent condition.

An excellent shoe, just not an AT shoe.  For more normal day hikes, etc. I highly recommend.  And if NB would put a better sole with more aggressive tread on this shoe, they would really have something.
