Oboz Men's Bozeman Low Leather Hiking Shoe

I have an upcoming trip to France that will involve city walking and also country locations so I needed one shoe that could do double duty. Something that wasn't a running or training shoe that could pair with slacks for a nicer event but could also handle rocky trails or other rough terrain. This shoe really delivers in both areas. It's dressier than a running shoe but built to handle off the pavement travel. Flexible in the front with a bit of stiffness in the midsole makes for great comfort and the grippy sole is ready for the trail. It was true to size and broke in nicely wearing it for a couple of days around town. The long lace pattern allows for customizing the fit for your foot. I highly recommend this shoe!

I love these shoes. Incredibly comfortable and stylish. Great treads.

I bought these two months ago in the “Canteen” color. They are very comfortable and after two months of almost everyday wear, they still look new. They go great with khakis or jeans and I’m about to order a pair in the grey.

I was excited to get these shoes as I am a fan of Oboz and really wanted to like them. I love the clean monotone casual sneaker look of these shoes. They go well with casual outfits and was hoping they would fit the bill for all-day wear with ability to hit some easier hikes and general outdoors wear.My feet are ~13.5, medium width. In most shoe brands 14M fits best. Knowing Oboz tends to run a bit small, I went with size 14 and they fit nicely. I would think if you have a true size 14 foot, these may be too small. Compared to their heavier hikers, like Bridgers, they are a bit wider in across the toe box, which is nice. The overall fit is a bit more relaxed than other Oboz I've tried but still was snug enough in the heel to prevent slipping. The Oboz insoles are great too. I need an insole with good arch support and ankle stabilization, and Oboz is one of very few brands I don't have to replace the insole in, saving at least $30. The heel is a little lower than other hiking shoes, but is still high enough to provide good support. The laces felt strong and solid and were easy to adjust. The tread pattern seemed like it would provide excellent grip, however, I did not get a chance to test that out.The problem I had is the seam where the tongue attaches to the vamp was rather prominent and with every step pushed down onto my toes. Very annoying. I don't know if I just got a bad pair or if this is a problem with the design, or if the design is just a bad match for my feet, but sadly, these had to go back. Still, kudos to Oboz for making an excellent looking casual hiker.

Not amazing for comfort, but they hold up well

I am very pleased with the comfort, fit, and look of this shoe. My one complaint is that the tongue is a bit short almost to the point where the top layer of laces rests on your foot. The tongue needs to be an inch longer for greater comfort. There's not even enough material to grab a hold of to try and pull it up. That alone would make me think twice about re-ordering in the future.

They provide great grip. They’re waterproof. They’re handsome. I can wear them all day at work or out and about. What’s not to love?!

These shoes are great and I will be buying a new pair once the other wears out. The grip is phenomenal
