Great Fit - Good All Around Boot

I'm a small guy with 7.5 size feet. This is a great boot. I do a lot of backpacking and around 50-60 days a year doing volunteer trail repair and maintenance in Utah for the USFS. Heavy abuse I know. The structure and fit of the boot is great. I don't need a special sock recipe to make them perform. Never had any blister issues from day one. They stayed waterproof. Only gripe is I wish the sole was more durable. I only got two seasons out of these. The speed laces are fantastic.

Sizing Is Different Than Old Version

About a 1/4 inch longer than old quests, really wish they would have said something about this on their website.

Comfortable And Durable

Given that they're Gore-Tex boots rather than full leather, they're pretty durable. I have owned these for over a year now, and they are still holding up and are still waterproof. I used these boots extensively for a 4-month job, walking an average of 15km a day, as well as for many backcountry backpacking trips. I found that the rubber at the toe peeled away from the other material a bit; however, it did not completely peel off, and did not affect the boot's functionality. Additionally, as these boots are Gore-Tex, they have a short break-in time. I was able to break them in within two hikes.

These boots have already been to death of valley.. also these boots are completely waterproof!!!! Boots held up greatly!!!! could not be happier!!

Quest Replacing My Zamberlan Boots

I have many pairs of the shoes and decided to replace my Zamberlan boots with the Quest after my first 4 hikes. They have been great so far on my hikes @tacohiking on IG and @hikingtaco on TT. They fit better and the comfort is much better than my other boots. They are a little larger than the shoes so went down 1/2 a size for fit.

Not What They Used To Be!

Perhaps a different Country manufacturer but used to wear straight out of box. This is my fourth pair and the worst. It is like wearing a new pair of leather boots that need breaking in. Unfortunately it appears that the fit is all different and I really can't see a way around this. Tight over top of ankle and loose at toes.

I Live In These Boots

I’m working on my 4th set of these boots and they are my daily year round wear. I get about three years out of a set and that will cover day hikes, backpacking with scouts, motorcycle riding, yard work, snow shoveling, etc. you name it, these are my go to boots. Comfortable to the point of forgetting I have them on and strong enough to handle anything my day throws at them.

Great Hiking Boots

I just bought my fifth pair which should say a lot about the boot. I buy a new pair every six months so that I have a "clean" pair, a hiking pair and a "work" pair. I wear the heals out long before the boot itself. I wish there more color choices and that they hadn't changed color of the "brown". Surprisingly they are fine for snow, being both waterproof and warm. Eventually Solomon will change or discontinue this boot, but until then, I will keep buying them.

Comfortable And Quiet

Mostly ready right out of the box. For me, about a half day waer was all needed to get them where I like them. Comfortable transitioning between snow to mud to pavement -- and still flexible enough at the ankle to drive in.

Comfort & Durability Are Solid.

The GTX-4 has been my only hiking boot for 6 years now. I am 5'-9", 180# with my boots on, and my day pack ranges from 25#-30#. There are many great boots out there but the GTX-4 is the only boot that's held up to the harsh environments I hike in. We hike cross country in the Mohave Desert, not groomed trails. A burro trail is a luxury. The life and reliability of my GTX depends on the terrain we hike, my pack load, and routine maintenance. Something too many hikers disregard. On average I get about 225 miles out of a pair of boots in a six month hiking season. I know because I track each pair of boots. Towards the end of the boot life you will begin feeling more of the trail, especially under a moderate to heavy load out. I read complaints from people who experienced "premature" boot failures. I have to ask, what is your body type, weight, actual miles hiked, terrain features, are your boots maintained per manufacturer recommendations? At my trail load out of 210#, I take every ounce of life out my GTX-4 in 225 miles, and go through two pair per year for the past 6 years. That equates to a penny a mile over the life of my boot. I call that deal for the comfort and durability I'm experiencing.
