This may be a spectacular product, however it is unavailable for purchase anywhere on the web or in stores.

Comfy and so light! My one complaint is that they leaked where the upper met the sole after 30min of deep puddles. They did dry pretty quick though...

I just bought these and have never had a more comfortable shoe period. The snug fit provided by the mid-cut design and dual lacing system is key and allows for adjustments on the move, including adjusting pressure points for differences in sock thickness. Bottom line, these are a really great product.

I agree with Ryskiag,....
Where can you buy the woman's shoe?

Posted by Britt, Aug 12, 2009 Star
Don't knock the rating of these shoes down because you can't find them. These are some of the best shoes money can buy with ample support and comfort for 30+ mile day hikes.

Q.} Do I have to get my girlfriend a women's-specific backpack if her torso size fits a men's one? Do the shoulder strap position and waist belt flare really matter and do you wear a women’s-specific backpack?
Submitted by: Miguel - Detroit, MI
A.} No, Miguel, you don’t necessarily have to get your girlfriend a women’s specific pack. I often wear men’s or unisex packs with great success. And I know small men who have had luck with women’s packs. Forget about the gender labels and look at the pack itself, and the way it works with your girlfriend’s body shape.
