Saentis Low Hiking Shoe - Men's

Runs 1/2 size larger than advertised

Function: I did not do my DD, so unfortunately 1/2 too big. I used them for about a year only at work (REI). Stayed in my locker so only saw glossed over concrete use. Quality: For the environment being used in, held up. Occasional bumps on walls / fixtures was not enough to tear through material. Minor abrasions and scuff marks. Price: For the price, not as big of a regrettable purchase due to size issue. But, could see them being used as a go to for day hikes.

Nice Kicks

These replaced Solomon GTX Low hikers (I've gone through 4 pairs of Solomons in the past two years due to premature wear). These are much more durable with similar same support and tread grip as the Solomons. I wouldn't suggest that the best use for these are trail running - I'd personally look at other options that are more running oriented, while these are a bit more hiking focused. I've found they're great for bagging peaks, 2-3 day backpacking trips, and just kicking around town..

Nice shoe

I wear the shoes for work as I am a Beach Patrol Officer. These shoes are comfortable, keep out the sand and I really like the rubber on the sides. Solid and sturdy, perfect for what I am using them for.

This shoe is sturdy, durable, lightweight and has great traction. I use it for hiking, trail running, and climbing approaches.
