Danner Men's Vanish GTX Scentlok Mobr Hunting Boot Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My first pair of Danner boots were given to me.When "good" work boots last me 1.5 years on average, the Danners lasted 6 years of terrible abuse before they even started to fall apart.They lasted another 2 years of worse abuse before they became so bad I couldn't wear them on a daily basis any more.Had I know that Danner would refurbish them, I'd have done that, but it was too late.

At that point, I had a back country hike coming up and I wanted a good, versatile shoe/boot that I could wear on a summer mountain hike or a fall/winter hunting trip.I wound up buying a pair of Danner Vanish GTX from the local Bass Pro Shop.

I soon wore them on a camping trip to try to break them in.I was afraid of blisters like I used to get in some other boots but suffered none.My feet would start to hurt very slightly on the sides, mostly between my ankle and toes.Not bad though.I did not get them perfectly broken in but it was a good start.

For the hike, these may have been a tiny bit bulky.Probably not the best backcountry hiking shoe because of the weight.To be honest, I haven't weighed them, but they are made more for hunting I think than hiking.To me that is more versatile so I'm fine with it.They aren't overly heavy though, and they offer a little ankle support while not being uncomfortable as I've found some taller boots to be.At first they can be tough to get on and off if you don't usually take the time to loosen the strings every time, but that's not a problem.

They offered great traction and I stubbed my toe on a few occassions but barely noticed thanks to the added protection on the toe.Additionally, they were waterproof all the way to the top.

We hiked 11.6 miles in approximately 6 hours our first day, in northwestern Montana.I carried approximately 45 pounds on my back.The next day I probably had 30 pounds and we hiked the same route back to the car, but got an earlier start so we took longer to do it.These boots, with a pair of Men's Outdoor Lightweight OTC Socks by Under Armour, left my feet feeling fine with no blisters and only a little bit of soreness as a result of my "ground pounding".

I've now worn these boots on 4 camping trips, 1 long hike, several short hikes, several hunting excursions, countless times to the gun range, and to work over half this year, and they feel more comfortable today than ever before.Furthermore, they don't seem to be getting even close to wearing out.These are great boots and I'm becoming a bigger fan of Danner products with each passing day.This is my second pair of boots from them that have been 100% every time I put them on.
