Bought these when my mom said "I want to go hiking with you!" She is in her 60s and has sciatic-issues. When she first tried them on, I knew she would have something to say about the ankle-support. I told her it was for the better and she'd get used to it. The next day she did 6 miles in them and didn't complain about her feet once. Her favorite features were how "secure" they felt, that her toes had "room to wiggle", the grip and traction ("I didn't slip once! Not even a little!") and above all how lightweight they were. I think their weight alone is credit to us finishing the hike - no added fatigue from the shoe itself. Would recommend to anyone for seasonal hiking!
