You probably can but I’d hire a company to pour the foundation!

Almost spit out my coffee, thanks for the laugh lol

Niiiiiiice! Thank you for the recommendation, the whole collection looks awesome!

Yep totally, that’s why I mentioned the “VC special”

Yes they have become my daily drivers for concrete as they started sucking for hiking when I got into long distance seriously after my intial AT hike.

Cheap is relative as these boots are like half the price of the other commenters rec: https://www.alfaoutdoor.com/men/hiking-boots - and your boots are like twice the price of my cheap keens hahah. They look awesome too though I will try to find a place to test drive. Thanks!

Damn these things look like tanks I gotta find a place to try them on, thanks!

I used to be a big Keen guy and would buy a new pair of Targhee II’s every other year… then it became every year… the last pair wore out in 6 months. Other hikeresque people have told me Keen is crap since moving production to china - but everything is made in china. I also have friends with different brand preferences who have experienced the same degredation in quality over the years. I honestly have no clue if it’s due to regulation with the materials as some have suggested, moving to cheaper materials (the VC special) or what. Long blerb but I am desperate to find a quality brand for hiking that offers a ‘wide’ option for my sasquatch feet.
