    Great comfortable boot you won’t be disappointed buying these

    The fit was a little

    Apr 23, 2023
    The fit was a little off. I have 2 other pair of Danner boots that were perfect out of the box. I ordered the same size I always do and the width felt uncomfortable. I returned and ordered the wide width. Better, but not perfect. I did keep them and after wearing them a few times, they seem to have broken in. For me, I would buy a 1/2 size up to move your foot to the wider spot in the boot and the wide width. The weight was good. I like the design. The soles were comfortable. I've worn them all day before and on a 5 mile walk. If the sizing fit me better, I would have given them 5 stars.

    Light weight and comfortable feel. Recieved the pair of boots and was impressed with the quality of workmanship. Can't wait to hit the trails this summer and really put them to the test.

    May 7, 2020
    Great hiking boot so far, already covered so much ground in them, they broke in quickly and are super comfortable. The price was very affordable. I gave up on danner for a few years, because my work boots werent lasting for the money i was spending on them. So far though i have put these hikers to the test and they seem to be holding up very well, maybe ill have to bring my service back to danner.

    Apr 24, 2023
    Initial fit was good. The uninsulated version of these boots just had a bunch of pressure points on the inside that would rub my feet raw. Really wish this wasn’t the case as I have had no issues with the insulated version

    Kept my feet dry cleaning the muck out of the reservoir.

    Happy so far

    Jul 9, 2020
    Pleased with these boots so far - I purchased them as for trail building and they are comfortable, light and true to size. They have held up well so far for bush whacking and trail work and I appreciate the taller height compared to some other boots - keeps the chainsaw shavings from filling my boots!

    They really felt like nice boots but unfortunately even the 2E was not really a wide fit at all.

    Very satisfied

    Mar 25, 2023
    I have been looking for new hiking boots for the last year, and never considered Danner Boots. After three surgery's on my feet. Danner Boots have been great and my feet have been feeling the best they have in a long time.

    Fit well and felt great

    May 9, 2020
    Fit well and felt great right out of the box. Wear them as every day and as walking boots. Excellent product.

    Not Waterproof, Leaked in less than a year.

    Aug 29, 2023
    These boots are extremely comfortable and fairly lite. Wore them hiking in Utah for a week then hunted in them in Georgia the following Deer season with no problems. Put them on in turkey season and feet got soaked walking through wet grass. Unfortunately, I didn't have the receipt so I couldn't return to the retailer. Expected more from Danner and really wanted these boots to work out because they are so comfortable.

    Worst pair of boots I’ve

    Mar 25, 2025
    Worst pair of boots I’ve ever owned. Rub your pinky toe raw, literally unwearable. Can’t even get past letting them loosen up.

    Great hiking boots. Super lightweight

    Jun 13, 2020
    Great hiking boots. Super lightweight and durable. After my first 2 hikes and 20+ miles on the trail through mud, snow, water and rocks, I am extremely pleased with my purchase. My feet have been comfortable and dry.

    Aug 16, 2022
    I have really enjoyed the fit. The shoe doesn’t get hot in my Hawaiian summer. I have also used the shoes for some construction work and they don’t feel heavy.

    May 10, 2021
    Zero breathability. Bought for hiking in spring summer. For a non insulated boot, they are the hottest boots I’ve had. Wore them for a couple days, doubt I’ll ever wear them again. Very disappointed because I love my danner hunting boots.

    One of the pair of boots was missing their laces. I have bought numerous pairs in the past and never did the boots not have laces. Other than that I do love the boot. I use them for walking.

    Apr 25, 2020
    I live on the Big Island of Hawaii. So I had to find a non insulated boot that was actually waterproof. That meant nothing made of leather as Hawaii scoffs at that and your feet will be soaked usually within a few days of purchase. I have had these boots for a couple of weeks and the fit the bill. Comfortable from day one and ready fro the morning hike in the wet every day. So far, so good.

    Mar 21, 2025
    This is more of a first impressions type review since they’re still fairly new. I primarily purchased these boots for range use and some hiking. The Vital is a very comfortable boot right out of the box. They fit well and true to size. Overall build quality seems to be pretty decent. I have not put the waterproof feature to the test yet though. I definitely look forward to putting some miles on these boots.

    The boot overall is a

    May 17, 2020
    The boot overall is a nice boot, but for the price you pay it comes with rock hard soles, and they do not breathe good for a light boot. Besides that they’re a nice light boot.

    Aug 30, 2023
    These are comfortable boots with plenty of padding around the ankle. There's also very good room in the toe box; I have crooked toes that need more height than usual. Two minor peeves: 1) the lace hooks have a narrow opening so it can take several tries to get the lace into the slot and 2) the boots come out of the box somewhat stiff, so need a week or two to soften up.

    Very comfortable. Will order again

    Jan 7, 2024
    Very comfortable. Will order again when time comes.

    Rough break in

    Mar 17, 2023
    Extremely stiff not a very comfortable for the first couple weeks, the Danner insoles are very thin I tried replacing them and still have problems still looking for an Isolde that will make these boots wearable. They are very nice looking and seem well built but for me they are not comfortable also Danner says these are waterproof… they are not my feet were soaked after a few minutes in light rain.

    Apr 4, 2025
    I love the boots. I love Danner brand, so thank you. I am in the military, so I have military Danners. They fit differently. Your hiking boots fit smaller. I should have purchased an 11 instead of a 10. 5. Great boots though.

    The fit was okay, but they are not waterproof and I’m still looking for more of a summer boot.

    Dec 16, 2022
    Great quality and durability, not as comfortable as my keens but last substantially longer. I bought 13wide and they are snug on my toes is my only complaint.

    Jun 8, 2024
    This is my second pair of this model. The first pair fit great out of the box. The second pair took some break-in and the left one still is a bit narrow. Overall a good boot. I just wore them for a European tour where we averaged 15,000 steps a day on cobblestones, and the boots did pretty well.

    Will be sending them back.

    Sep 30, 2023
    Will be sending them back. I have owned 12 pairs of Danners and have loved them all. My size of 10.5 EE has been spot on and consistant amoung them all. These things are so narrow it's unbelievable. If someone else is building these things for you, at least make them follow the sizing of your other models!

    Good looking boot. Seems to

    Feb 12, 2024
    Good looking boot. Seems to run big. Thought at first it was just due to needing broken in. But seems like 1/2 size bigger than expected

    Super comfy with no break in but they ultimately fell apart

    Aug 3, 2021
    Loved these boots when I got them. Light, comfy and enjoyed wearing them almost every day. Within a week I noticed the "paint" covering the toe cap started to flake off but no big deal. Unfortunately within 3 months the stitching around the toe box all started to break and unravel causing me to submit a warranty claim (pain being without boots). Just used my credit to purchase a new pair of Sharptails. It's funny that no matter what boot I looked at the reviews were pretty much all 4.5 stars.

    Well built, comfortable and overall

    Apr 18, 2023
    Well built, comfortable and overall pretty happy. My only concern is how hot they get. I live in SE North Carolina and the boots are hot on my feet when its warm outside. Other than that I really like the boots.

    This is my second pair

    Jun 2, 2021
    This is my second pair of Vital boots. The first pair has been worn daily for over a year both on pavement and trails. I've put many miles on these boots and I couldn't be happier. Waterproof, tall enough for ankle support, good tread and sole longevity. I wear them in both the office and field. The original pair replaced hiking boots made by "M". Quality of construction, material selection, support and comfort far exceeded the "M" boot. Just get a pair - you won't regret it.

    Aug 19, 2022
    Hellp Danner, I have been wearing your boots for more than 20 years and have always had great success, however in the last couple years something has changed, I really like the radical 452 but they have been unavailable. I tried these shoes hoping to find a replacement but these are very incomfortable.

    Very satisfied so far. They

    May 27, 2021
    Very satisfied so far. They broke in quickly and are light weight. I hike with a hiking group every week in the North Georgia Mountains and have worn them for a month now. No blisters or problems. Many in my group prefer hiking shoes, but I like the additional ankle support. Good product, workmanship good. I am a Veteran and don’t mind them being made in Vietnam, anywhere but China.

    I find these boots to

    Jun 30, 2024
    I find these boots to be great for hiking. Great ankle support and comfortable to wear. Workmanship is so much better then some of the more expensive other brands.

    Tight fitting boots. Make sure

    Jul 12, 2021
    Tight fitting boots. Make sure you up-size if you like loose fitting boots. Otherwise, a great boot
