Avoid this shoe at all cost. Though it is cosy and fits well, it ripped open THROUGH the rubber shield in less than half a year of "office use" (not trekking and hiking). I only used this shoe about 5 times decently. Only 1 walk was longer than 8 hours, others were just aproaches or descents from various walls. In the following year, i broke the sole of my other shoe in half WHILE SOLOING a descent route in Paklenica. Needles to say this is very dangerous. I hate this shoe. I will never buy anything from lowa again. The shoe does not do what it's supposed to do.
