Is that design by choice or do they inadvertently look as if they've been worn extensively already?

[GardenState]

@Tago-Mago See I don't think it makes them look worn. I think they resemble a topographic map or something. If they were ripped up I don't think I'd be interested.

I’m agree. If you’re anywhere near an outlet check that out. @Clint_D was at one recently and they had all kinds of MiUSA models for $70. He sent me some pics…

I picked these up for the missus at the NB Outlet, got them for $60 out the door:

That visit would have been real dangerous if they had anything worthwhile in a size 11.

[Matt]

Excellent choice.

@Clint_D dude hell yeah I have similar ones and absolutely love that colorway.

Can't wait to get my hands on these -

@MTpockets very cool

[Matt]

Yeah I like those a lot.

[Seul]

Well I figured I'd get these since I'm attacking the Alps in April...

[Seul]

So I'm taking these and a regular pair of GTX Hierro trail shoes. Should be ok.

[Matt]

Those are tough.

So are the Alps. Just ask Hannibal!

[Matt]

Sounds like an amazing trip you have planned. Are your elephants ready?

After overdyeing these in indigo they felt too tight to wear at first. I am happy to report that they have loosened up nicely. I wore them for 10 hours today and have been comfortable. Took some evening photos after work in the backyard in Appalachia.

@Oaktavia so cool Stevie and glad they’re fitting better. Almost gives me the confidence to try a dye job on some of my own

It was super fun to dye them. I'm making another vat next week and have some ideas. It's worth trying if you love indigo all over.

@Oaktavia I mean who among us doesn’t love “indigo all over”?
