Reviews

Mountain Extreme 400

"Excellent boots all the way around. Great support most of all. Low mileage still but we have quite a bit planned so we will definitely put them to the test."

Chris M. (5/5)

Great boots

"Took my mtn extremes to moose hunt in Alaska. 5 straight days of rain and wet marsh without a proper boot drier only air dry in the tent at night and feet never got wet. Super comfortable"

Dustin B. (5/5)

No More Blisters!

"I have been hunting and hiking for over 40 years and struggle to find boots that properly fit my long narrow feet. I ordered the Mountain Extreme 400 in 11. 5 Narrow and ai couldn’t be more pleased. Despite a stated break in period of approximately 50 miles I have not had a single blister. I have been prepping for an upcoming AK moose hunt and have about 20 miles on them with and without a 50 lbs pack. The soles are stiff, but provide great stability and traction. The 10” uppers keep debris out and support my ankles. I have not tested the waterproofing, but I have zero doubts based on my experience and the quality of these boots. Worth every penny!"

Charles H. (5/5)

Ferment issue

"I believe I ordered one size too small. Left boot feels great but my right foot gets sore from the boots narrowness."

Brett H. (4/5)

Great boots

"Boots are true to size. They fit and feel great right out of the box only have a few short miles on them. One of the best boots ever had."

Mike F. (5/5)

"Always a great boot! Been wearing Kenetreks for several years now, be hard for me to wear anything else."

TODD N. (5/5)

Mountain Extreme 400

"Was worried about the reviews of the long break in period but with a good pair of wool socks and multiple shorter hikes they broke in like a dream. I have yet to wear them on colder days but even in 75-80 degree weather my feet do not get overly hot. Loving them so far!"

I’m a flatland Floridian I love to elk hunt in Colorado with my buddies. They all have them now. I have them and I’ll probably be purchasing another pair. Thank you so much. What a great pair of shoes. My feet are happy and my legs and my back.

"Love the way they fit very supportive of my ankles and extra wide great for chasing elk are sitting in a cold deer stand. My feet are always warm."
