Reviews

Kenetrek Women’s Mountain Extreme NI boots

"These boots have exceeded my expectations. They were comfortable almost immediately and broke in far easier than I anticipated. Despite the easy break‑in, they feel incredibly sturdy and supportive—solid on uneven terrain without feeling overly stiff or heavy. Fantastic boots overall: durable, comfortable, and absolutely worth it."

— Deanna G. (5/5)

Great boots seem to maintain

"Great boots seem to maintain the quality I’ve come to expect. My last pair has about 4000 miles on them and finally might need a resole. And I expect these to last just as long."

caribou hunting

"these boots are very sturdy and warm!! I love them. . . they kept my feet well protected while caribou hunting in Alaska- north of Nome."

Very happy with boots

"It is Spring in the mountains of NE OR. In my line of work, that means you end up trekking through snow, mud, rock, and snowmelt streams in a day. Yesterday was especially brutal. As I post-holed up to my a-hole on 45% slopes of dense second growth, I was incredibly grateful for these boots. Even though they are not insulated, my feet stayed dry and warm. They have also been comfy from the start. No break in needed. Yes, they are expensive, but worth it if you need a high-performing boot and you want it to last."

Hunting and work boot

"I am a professional forester and a hunter. I hike for work and for fun over some pretty rough terrain in varying weather conditions. I really like these boot I wore lowas for about 9 years but I’m happy to have tried something new. Don’t lace them too tight. Plenty of support and really good traction but at a really light weight. No problem with waterproofness when hiking through wetlands, mud, and snow."

Excellent boots!

Just what I’ve been looking for….

"After having broke my foot and toes, I’ve been looking for a good hiking boot with a good base foundation (they are not easy to come by) - but FINALLY I found what my foot needed with Kenetrek's Women’s Mountain Extreme NI. I do not do mountain climbing, but I do tread very uneven terrain every morning for a few hours, and these are perfect. Honestly, other footwear literally killed my feet (and legs}. I have very narrow heels and was told that heel slipping is fairly common until broken in. It does appear to be getting better, and my foot is feeling more seated every day. They were very rigid right out of the box - the wax and daily hikes are softening them very nicely. I like these SO well, that i also bought a 1000 gram insulated pair for this upcoming winter. i had a few questions, and customer service is superb. I wipe them down daily to see if the lighter color is dust or needed wax - so far I’ve not needed to redo wax (it’s been dust). Exceptional quality on Kenetrek’s footwear, socks AND wax."

Immediate comfort right out of

"Immediate comfort right out of the box. Got these for my wife. Smallest size Kenetrek makes and thankfully they are perfect. She says they are “clunky” but she’s just getting used to them. She has enough miles on them now that I did a complete wax job on them using the Kenetrek wax and that makes them ultra-soft. The leather used in these is the best there is. Nice construction. Very bulletproof design that really works. Good job Kenetrek for making your family boot for women too."
