Don't usually buy footwear without trying it on, but decided to take a chance. It was worth it. Good quality, sturdy, lightweight and comfortable. With 5E feet, I have a lot of trouble finding what fits. Excellent gripping soles that were perfect for hopping around on rocks. I highly recommend this these hikers.  The only quibble is that the laces are about a mile long so I had to double lace to keep the ends from dragging.
