Until they replaced gortex with a plastic grocery bag for water proofing. Now it feels like I’m walking in wet dog shit while making a constant crinkly noise.

I’ll second Merrell’s. I’ve worn the shit out of every pair I’ve had and they’ve lasted longer than any other shoe/boot I’ve owned.

My keen boots fit me better than Merrill.

I have a pair of Oboz that have held up for quite a while

Yeah. All my shoes are Merrels =)
