This line has been totally renewed. It now offers an ideal choice for light hikers and trekkers who demand lightweight and comfort.
These shoes have a particular look and a snappy design. They are structured with our innovative footbed, Duo Asoflex.
Every single component and material has been carefully evaluated and tested as part of our continued search for something new in terms of quality, reliability and innovation.
Duo Asoflex is the synthesis of Asolo's research, two elements are melted together to improve comfort and performance. The first element, constructed of a stiff material benefits anti pronation, anti supination and anti torsion. The second element, constructed with a softer material offers shock absorption while walking.

Great boot for hard to fit

I purchased this boot after trying similar models from Vasque and Lowa. I am difficult to fit because I have a narrow heal and flat feet (low arch). Plus I have one foot 1/2 size larger than the other which compounds fit problems. Specifically, this boot has a flat foot bed that allows customization of the arch support placement which is especially important for me. I will be using these boots for hiking and backpacking in the Sierras.

While no boot will ever be "perfect", this one has appeal in a wide range of applications. I am in Army Special Forces and wear this boot near daily both in America as well as combat operations in Iraq. My daily kit weighs about 70 pounds, which was a little too much for the thin insole that comes with the boot, but a pair of Dr. Scholls work boot insoles solved that problem. It provides decent ankle support for a mid-height boot, is stiff enough for hiking, but is still light enough for prolonged periods of running, with or without weight. The GORTEX liner has kept me dry in a few puddles, but I've been mostly in the desert. The boot is warm (once again... I'm in the desert), but anything waterproof is going to have that drawback. It took about a month of steady wear to break in just right. I don't reccomend your first walk being 10-12 miles in them, but suit yourself.

tough break-in period

Fit seemed perfect in store. Did the walk around, compared them to other boots. Have worn and hiked extensively for over 2 weeks now and still have hot spots on insides of ankles. Major hike coming up soon and getting worried these boots will not be "broke" by then.

Based on price and performance, I had narrowed my shopping down to the Vasque Breeze and the Asolo Fugitive when I noticed several reviews that stated the Asolo was a true fit right out of the box. It was as good a fit as advertised. I am still breaking them in, although they are plenty comfortable- expect to go on a ten-mile hike within two weeks in them. The soles are very grippy as well, which should be good on the large rocks I often hike over.

Great Boot

Just got back from the Butterfield Hiking Trail in Arkansas. It was slightly muddy and extremely rocky. I crossed streams stepped in mud clanked the boot off many a rock and had absolutely no problems at all. Great boot. The only drawback is the toungue needs a bit of break-in to feel just right. Other than that you're good to go.
