A Quick Hike in New Boots

Posted January 29th, 2010.

I just wanted to write a quick post to share my experience with my new Asolo hiking boots. I received these boots for Christmas but this was my first chance to wear them on a hike. I packed a lunch and some snacks and set out for the Cleveland National Forest. The weather was a little cold and rain threatened so I decided on a quick loop through the lowlands and back to my car. I ended up putting in about 6 miles and my feet felt fine. I had only worn the boots around the house a few times, so I was expecting some blisters, but I had no problems. I’m anxious to test these out on a longer hike and will let everyone know how it went afterwards.
