The shoes are really great for the price. Since I do not often go hiking I decided for the cheaper option. When the shoe arrived and I have tried it the first time I thought "joah fits somehow" and is sufficient for the planned hike in the short term already. Packaging is relatively simple. Just a normal box. So keep, dressed for hiking and beautiful strapped. Surprisingly, the shoes were really comfortable and I had a 7 hour hike not a single bubble !! The shoes are mainly uphill really good and you also have a good grip (despite slush and wet stones). The only downside is the way downhill in steep and rugged terrain (just a few stones that serve as way). The shoes oppressed just above the Achilles tendon pretty and I had on both sides a slight bruise. But in "normal" downhill trails there no problems with the shoes, no matter how steep they are. Therefore really a buy recommendation, since you probably hardly gets better shoes for the price.
