I have no experience with Zamberlain boots. But I've read the description and they seem to be a good boots for what they are designed to do. They are not hiking boots, They are mountaineering boots, which mean they will have a rigid sole to take crampons, and minimum flex in the ankle. That's great if you are climbing vertical ice with crampons. But not so good for hiking because they will have no flex and feel like you are wearing bricks. They will will contribute to fatigue when hiking. Please report back when you have tried hunting or hiking in these boots. It's too late now since you have purchased the Zamberlain boots, but you might have taken a look at Crispi Colorado GTX boots.


Wind in my hair, Sun on my face, I gazed at the wide open spaces, And I was at home.
