For Boots5.0Esatto, I have to say I LOVE these boots - my toes have never been so happy and I'm desperate to get them back ASAP - I know, me and all the others in your line up. I'm addicted to comfortable feet, now that I've had them. I've had so many comments on them when people see them - they look, of course, like Hobbit feet - so short and wide...I give raving reviews. Thank you, sincerely for a wonderful product. Love, them!!!

For Custom Hiking Boots5.0The original review for my first pair of Esatto boots after the 2005 hiking season is posted on the Esatto.biz website in the feedback section (only review date of 2005). So how are they doing after 7 hiking seasons? I like them even more than I did after the first season. I bought a second pair in case anything happened to my first pair (lost luggage while traveling, etc.). My original pair is holding up well, on their third set of soles, and the uppers are still have a lot of life left in them. I submitted a current photo of my original boots which will be shown above if/when approved. A little background about my foot challenges. About 10 years ago I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In a 4-month span I went from being fairly active to having problems walking. I thought my hiking days were over. Normal daily walking still gives me problems unless I am wearing special shoes/orthotics. I've had my ups and downs with RA over the past 10 years, but still have managed to continue backpacking and hiking. Prior to the RA, I always had problems with hiking boots and never had a pair that really fit (lots of blisters, discomfort, and even some blood-soaked boots). My Esatto boots have been used for seven seasons for multi-day backpacking trips and hikes. I haven't kept a mileage log, but I estimate I've put well over 1000 miles on them just on backpacking trips and hikes. I've used them from Tennessee to Hawaii including trips to the Grand Canyon, Colorado, Wind River Range, Sawtooths, and Glacier NP. I also regularly use them for everyday wear. My feet have stayed comfortable in the desert and dry in day-long downpours. They still have their original set of boot laces. After the first season I thought the price of the boots was worth it, but spreading that cost out over the past 7 seven years (with what looks like several more seasons left in them) it's proved to be an even smarter buy for me. - Mike
