Thank you Molly for helping me choose my first shoes for tramping in. In summer I suffer in boots with heat, blisters or hot spots.
I first used them to climb Mt Torlesse. I still taped the usual bits of my feet and used hikers wool. They're so much lighter, cooler and nimble to wear. They drain quickly and I had no rubbing, heat issues or bruised toes.
Since then I've tramped 6 days straight in them. The vibram sole is awesome on rock, dusty hard Central Otago route, and after rain at night they were solid on steep ups and downs.
I have a wide forefoot and skinny, bony heels and ankles. These lock me in and they give great support on a multi-day tramp. I went one size larger and that's working well with no pressure or bruised toes.
I have a high instep and these have enough volume as my feet don't go numb.
I no longer need to tape my feet in these and use minimal hikers wool.
I also bought the proprietary puttees/gaiters. They're a crazy price but seem to work well keeping stones and grit at bay.
They're a revelation for summer tramping.
I'd be waiting for the Traverse to replace my old Ultraventure Pros. Have now worn them for several 4-6 hour day hikes. These are even better, particularly the sole's grip. Improved laces, too. I've walked through some streams and, yes, the FKT insole really works - it doesn't hold water, the mesh drains fast and there's no more squelching.
Just tested my new shoes out in a 6 hour event in mud, wet grass, slippery rocks, and steep terrain. Amazing, such good grip and no bruised toes with the larger toe box. Totally recommend
Excellent wear, grip and comfort. Are still going strong after 20 days constant thru hiking.
Very happy with them.
