which is not of much significant difference but upon careful look, it does.

In the following review, it is also hinted that it can be used to kick soccer balls around! The common point for this shoe based on the reviews is that of its durability.

The following are the reviews for this item based on three customers having purchased this item on Amazon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb shoe August 16, 2012
Bought this shoe recently in a full size above what I normally wear (it does run small) and it was wonderfully comfortable and tough for a two week trip that involved plenty of hiking in dirt, mud, and on wet rocks - but the shoe is also flexible enough to wear while kicking a soccer ball around. It's also fairly handsome for a hiking boot, so I didn't bother changing on a few occasions before going out for dinner. No visible wear and tear showing yet - just dirt. Highly recommend.

3.0 out of 5 stars Runs small August 8, 2012
Color Name:Dark Forest|Size Name:10 D(M) US|
Not a bad shoe, but runs half size small. Laces up nice with a snug grip on foot. Good construction, but a little heavy in weight. Sole should be firmer to protect from small rocks that one can feel through the bottom of the shoe.



4.0 out of 5 stars Garmont ZenithTrail May 27, 2012
Color Name:Dark Forest|Size Name:12 D(M) US|
The product seems well built and true to size. Am still breaking in the shoes but expect them to be durable and meet my needs.
