I had been looking for a trail shoe that was light weight, good fit with thick socks and didn't cost me the bank.  My search is over.  I read the previous reviews and decided to try this Hi-Tec brand and I am glad I did.  I ordered 8 Med and there is plenty of room for thick socks and a really comfortable shoe.  The quality appears to be exceptional (only time will tell) and I like the combination of leather and mess which adds to the versatility (all seasons) of this shoe.  The only thing I think that would make this better is if it came in wide sizes.
