Tue, 12 Jan 2010 01:03:36 +0000 http://sectionhiker.com/?p=8142#comment-5622 Asolo hiking boots are some of the best, as stated here, by far. They aren't as heavily marketed like you said, but man are they awesome! Great construction and bang for your buck. I've had several pairs for work and play. They're great for both. Some models are a bit pricey, but will definitely last way longer than other brand name boots. Asolo hiking boots are some of the best, as stated here, by far.

Heck some people hike in sandals. But for me, I'd want a bigger roomer boot like the fugitive for serious backpacking. However, if your priority is for everyday use, I'd go with the flames. They're more of a utility boot for hiking and kicking around town. Having hiked a lot with the flames, I can tell you that the toe box will not expand with use, like a leather boot. They will get a little softer, but not larger. You can absolutely backpack using the Flames. Heck some people hike in sandals.

Im concerned with the article-authors description that they may not be good for multi -day hikes. Yet they are more expensive than the fugitive price.. and supposidly more advanced in technology. I want somethign for hiking, packing once in a while and every day use.. any suggestions?
