## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Pleased!
*by M***K on July 2, 2025*

This boot is very well made, comfortable, and provides good support.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply, WOW!
*by T***R on November 11, 2020*

Finally, a boot that fits properly at size 10 or Euro 43. I have gotten many size 9.5D that fit too tight; or 10E that fit too big; and some 10EE that fit almost perfect. This boot from Kennetrek fits like a glove, and has room for an expanding foot after many hours of wear. Thank you, thank you, thank you!This "Hardscrabble" hiking boot is well built, with excellent materials, and highly stiff for walking over rocks, rough terrain, and cliffs or uphill/downhill. Just awesome boot!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best damn boot ever
*by C***K on July 1, 2024*

Very stiff and stable. Once they were broke in I will never go back to any other boot. Hiking, hunting, Harley, and work.
