Vasque St. Elias GTX

Top Pro

Comfortable

The boots are relatively lightweight for hiking boots. They have a snug fit around the ankles due to a great ankle collar and are flexible enough to give lots of mobility due to the midsole having EVA cushioning pads. See More

Top Con

Has to be ordered up at least a half size

Top Pro

Durable

It's a full-leather construction that uses nubuck leather, a top-grain cattle leather that's similar to suede. The boot has some overlays that give durability to places where wear and tear is more common and a durable toe ram in the front giving lots of protection. See More

Top Pro

Minimal break-in time

As they are leather boots, they do require some break-in time, but it's just about 5-6 hours on average. See More

Top Pro

Good traction

Good traction is provided in all kinds of weather and all kinds of surfaces. See More

Top Pro

Waterproof

The boot has a Gore-Tex lining giving it waterproof breathable protection. See More
