Ecco X-Factor Kilamanjaro GTX Boot

[Desalad]

Hi, does anyone have any first hand (foot) experience with these boots? I think they look pretty cool and the technical description sounds good. Before I buy them I wanted to see if anyone has used them. Thanks in advance, Happy Holidays!

Cambrelle insole with felt for added comfort and moisture management

Not a single comment? Anybody? Well I bought a new pair of golf shoes with my gift card.

At least you won't have to worry about traction

These boots may be super, but ... the brand? It's not a first-tier boot manufacturer, at least not yet.

OTH, if you're an experienced outdoor winter hiker, know exactly what to look for when buying a boot, are satisfied they have adequate torsional and longitudinal rigidity, an adequate box toe to withstand pressures from snowshoe and crampon bindings, blah, blah blah - then buy them and let us know how they hold up after a year or so of hiking.
