I cannot say enough about these shoes. They are light weight yet durable. I have wore the hiking in Tennessee at  Grotto Falls, a day hike in Georgia and a very long hike to  Black hole drop in Belize.  The proofed to be very durable comfortable and light weight on all three hike.  I also wore them on a trail run and gave me great arch and ankle support.  If you are looking for a great hiking or trail running show that is light weight this is the shoe.
