It's early days (only one month into the Danner shoe-owning experience), so take this review with the proverbial grain of salt. But so far the shoe has met my expectations:

* Comfy, if somewhat narrow fit, which suits me just fine given my narrow-ish forefoot
* Excellent traction in slippy conditions. Really impressed with the vibram sole.
I have yet to put them through the paces with any significant hiking/backpacking, so this review will need a refresher once they experience has been achieved, but at this point I'm well pleased with the purchase.
