The Solomon fit me very good. My goal is to find the correlative 400 gr 'elk' boot. I have a pair of Cabela's Mendeils and they feel great walking around flattish ground. When I load a pack, it feels like my heels move around too much. I'll find out in a few weeks when I head to WY for elk followed the next week by CO elk. If I can still walk, I might be good. <G>

Adversity doesn't build character, it reveals it.
