Tribute II GTX - Women's
I believe those boots could be perfect and really durable for many people, but if you have wide feet like me, you will probably feel kinda stuck in those shoes. I had to send them back because of this. However, the quality seems to be great, some of my friends have thoses and they all recommended them to me, for the comfort and versatility. A wide foot option would be a cool addition to the website :)
Les meilleures bottes/chaussures que j'ai jamais achetées. Je es porterais tout le temps. J'en ai même acheté une 2e paire pour en avoir au chalet.

these boots are stiff at first but after 2-3 weeks of wearing them for a walk a day they are super comfortable and have molded nicely to my feet. I wear orthotics inside and thick socks and find they still have a bit of room for wiggling my toes if they get swollen. Love them
Very happy so far. They’re sturdy and waterproof. I have a bunion so they need to stretch to fit my feet, but I’m using a ball in hole, and they’re gradually getting more comfortable.

After a couple of hot spots (front of ankles), the first couple of outings, the boots have softened up and are very comfortable. They are warmer than my previous boots, had a heat rash but it was hot. Very pleased so far.
My boots were crafted 7/2011 and only yesterday did they finally give on the Presidentials in NH. They have rocked almost every 100 highest in New England in the last decade plus many other backpacking excursions. I’m so glad AKU is stickong with this classic because I am buying my next pair now. I had Scarpas before, which I also loved, but were not as immediately molded. People I’ve talked to with similar Keens have had them last only a couple of years before the sole detaches. These are the keeper and you cannot beat the traction on ledge, rock, and loose gravel. Keep up on the waterproofing and they will last a decade, at least.
I bought a pair of Aku boots 3 years ago and I will only wear them for hiking now. I re-soled them multiple times and I can still hike many hundreds of miles. High quality hand-made Italian boots that fit like soft gloves.
I am astounded at how comfortable and supportive my Aku boots are! I am yet to do a long hike but so far on shorter walks they are fantastic. I can adjust the lacing to achieve a really beautiful fit so they’re very comfortable. I’m so happy with this purchase!
This is my third pair of AKU's. The quality is excellent, the shoes are well balanced and require very little break in time. I can wear them all day without pain, which is unusual for me.
These boots are unreal! Perfect fit - true to size. Almost zero break-in (crazy for leather boots!). Stylish look. Waterproofing is great so far. Wore on a short backpacking trip, and I'm already in love and telling all my friends!
Twice as much as I like to spend but worth every cent.
I ordered the Tribute II GTX but in a wrong size. Sending it back was easy and I received the correct size quickly. The customer service was very efficient and nice. And the boots are so comfortable, no time needed to adjust to them.
LOVE LOVE LOVE these boots. Only shoes in my closet that don't hurt my feet. I live in them. No breaking in. Perfect right out of the box. Best boots ever.
No break in. Perfect from the first time worn. So comfortable.
No “breaking in” required. Very comfortable boots. Shipped very quickly. Only thing to note is that they are on the narrower side so if doing mostly hiking in colder weather could potentially size up a half point.
