Great pair! Mine were a very dark brown that lightened a bit. I had them for awhile but got them a half size too small. I did an all day hiking (and it snowed) trip with about 45 pounds of gear with the AF64 since I forgot to pack my hiking boots and they held out well on the trail when I wore them with thick/padded hiking socks. Although they do not compare to a modern-desgined hiking boot for off/on trail use, especially with moderate to heavy loads, they worked better than I expected. The vibram soles are well designed, supportive and held up well on bad weather and uneven terrain. The boot last, however was too soft and the boot flexed quite a bit on varied surfaces. The oil-treated leather was suprisingly water-resistant and kept my feet dry for most of the day.
I'm actually thinking of purchasing another pair (this time in the right size
) for this fall/winter to wear with jeans on the weekends.
