Garmont Women's Scirocco Hiking Shoe

I was interested in these shoes since they are a good brand for a really good price. The reviews worried me though. I ordered a half size down which works well as long as I don't wear super-thick socks. The other reviewers were right about the colors. The picture and color description of fern/silver is way off. The green is more of a neon, though it's not shiny so it's not horrible. It covers about half the shoe and is a meshy material. The "silver" is definitely taupe. So the color combo is not great. The styling of the shoe is nice besides the colors. Since I won't be wearing them daily and can live with the colors, I'm keeping them. So far they feel comfortable and I think as they break in, they will feel even better and look better too (to me, new hiking shoes always look kind of dorky).

I wore these shoes on an overnight field trip in the pouring rain. My feet stayed relatively dry and when they did get wet, the shoes dried in about 45 minutes. My feet never got sore! I'm looking to get another pair just to have.

Very light, supportive hiking shoes with a lot of room in the toe. Usually wear an 8.5-9M, bought these in a 9, comfortable (with medium-thick socks) right out of the box. Have to say that the bright pea-green mesh/grayish suede uppers aren't gorgeous, but I don't plan to wear them for any modeling gigs. A very good buy--I'm thinking about getting a second pair to stash away for future use.

Well, I haven't had the shoes long, so I don't know how they will break in, but they certainly aren't too comfortable from the get go, as modern day hiking shoes usually are. The sole is very stiff, which then makes the heel slip even when the shoe is tied really well. I've had to bend the sole myself and we'll see if that fixes it. But for the price, you get what you pay for. Their product development people must all be color blind if they think that's silver. More like brown, or muddy sand.

Wow...what can I say? After reading some of the comments I was a little worried about getting these. OMG the price and the quality that these seem to be can not be beat. The color is fine and looks just like the picture. I must say outside the green is a little brighter. I have them on and breaking them in and they feel fine, not stiff and I ordered my correct size and it seems to be true. These are for outdoor activities and need to be sturdy to hold up. After a 45 minute powerwalk my feet feel great. Best of all...under 25 bucks...great deal.
