Salomon Men’s Quest Element Gore-Tex, Waterproof Neutral Leather Hiking Boots - Black/Deep Lichen Green/Olive Night

I think these boots are awesome, so far. I have had them for about 1 year, however, the majority of the time I used them for driving my side by side and when I was off-roading. I did not put the boots through rough terrain hikes, or through harsh element conditions and the tip of the boot, the rubber that comes up from the sole started coming apart on 1 boot only. I have used them for camping, at the sand dunes, but never submerged, and did a little hiking but nothing too extreme. I'm a heavy set guy, 6'01" weighing 285lbs, and the boots are awesome, just the fact that the tip of the boot separated from the boot itself. Other than that, the boots are comfortable, nice and secure fit, light and flexible boot, sturdy though, which is nice.
