Review on ASOLO Fugitive Gtx Hiker Boots, Size 8.5UK, Wool/Black by Micha Puzio ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Valuable purchase, nothing but pluses!

Back in 2022, when I was planning a trip to the mountains, I spent 7800 dollars on this model, which was considered to be fairly pricey at the time. The purchase is one I have never once come to regret. They have excellent control of the ankle joint; on multiple occasions, they have prevented serious injuries to the leg by turning their feet sharply when walking on slippery stones. The breathability is exceptional, and even after being submerged in water, the socks dry out quite quickly if you wear them with trekking socks. In general, they give off the impression of being a dependable and robust creature, and they look fantastic when worn on the leg. Since in my opinion they are a touch hefty and fairly still for lengthy mountain climbs, it would be worthwhile to consider something lighter as a shoe for one-day walks on crossroads, since they are rather still for long mountain trips. However, the weight is more of a cost associated with the increased safety. When worn with the right sock, it can be used in temperatures ranging from around +25 to -20. When exposed to temperatures of -20 degrees Celsius with a reliable tersonosk made of wool, legs do not freeze for approximately three hours if activity levels are kept moderate. I am willing to recommend this model for long hikes, and I am pleasantly pleased that it is still available for purchase. The model has a lot of potential.
