Bring Back The Breeze Iii Gtx

These are now cheap and low quality. The old Breeze III with GTX and vibram soles were the best bang for your buck and most comfortable hiking boot out there.

Good boots! Will buy again………::::::::::……………:::;;;;;;

Where Did The Vibram Sole Go?

I've been through many iterations of the Vasque Breeze, for hiking, search/rescue, and everyday wear. I'm now looking for a new pair of the 7742, but I see much to my disappointment that the outer sole is no longer Vibram. The part number is the same, but the sole isn't. I won't bet my life on anything other than Vibram, so that's the end of the Breeze for me. RIP.

Everything In One Shoe

Comfort, true to size, durability, traction, waterproof. Highly recommend.

Bought this brand several years ago and finally the sole split so had to buy another pair. They are my go to boots for hiking. That are great quality and lasted 15 years.

Bring Back Breeze Iii Gtx

Breeze III GTX were the best feeling boot you offered. Went through at least 3 pairs. Any newer model has been sub par in feel and comfort.

Breeze Iii

Great boot! I have had mine for over 5 years and have nearly 1100 Strava miles on them. Sole is holding up and even the original laces show no sign of wear. I rotate use of them with another brand which I have over 1700 miles on. No complaints!

Quality Must Be Slipping...

My first pair I had for 5 years of daily walking around before there were just too far gone. The second pair made it under 2 years before multiple parts where the laces thread through had torn out. I was debating trying a third pair but after reading the reviews it seems my disappointment would only continue. So I'm leaning this review hoping the negative feedback will turn into a better boot again in the future. You guys value engineered too far.

I Could Not Be More Disappointed

I have been contemplating writing this email for quite some time but yesterday was the final straw. I have worn Vasque breeze hiking boots almost daily for the better part of 15 years probably in the neighborhood of 8 to 10 pairs. When I purchased the last pair about 6 months ago, I was shocked when I took them out of the box, I could tell right away that the quality of all material upper leather and soles was about half the thickness as my old pairs and everything about them is cheap except the price. The path I normally walk has small rocks maybe 1-to-2-inch semi imbedded into the dirt. Walking on it with the new breeze boots actually becomes painful after a couple of miles due to how thin the soles are. I couldn't even imagine climbing up a rocky canyon or something of that nature in them. My house slippers have thicker soles on them than your new breeze designed soles. I wear my old pair when working in my shop they're still rugged thick upper, thick soles even being partially worn out and still comfortable just not much to look at and comparing them is like night and day compared to your new breeze hiking boots, honestly absolutely no comparison, I have spoken very highly to my friends over the years about your hiking boots but now I just tell them how disappointed I am that Vasque has gone the way of just about everybody else in the consumer market. Profit first consumer quality second. Thank you for the good years but I will never purchase another pair of your hiking boots again!

Vasque Boots

Been wearing the Vasque breeze since 2016 and never had a blister in this boot. Quality is good, never had an issue. The only thing that wears is the tread which is to be expected from normal wear and tear and backpacking in extremely rocky conditions. Would recommend. I won’t wear anything else.

Nice Fit And Lightweight

I have been buying the breeze boot for about 20 years now. I would agree that the laces need to be a bit longer so you can double tie them. On zappos web site they advertise that the 7742 has gore tex lining and vibram soles, you might want to check on that one. Other than that the boots are really comfortable.
