Why We Like The Sundowner GTX Backpacking Boot
From mile one to mile ten, the Vasque Sundowner GTX Backpacking Boot still feels good when the sun's dipping down beyond the treeline and we've been hiking since morning. It doesn't matter if we are trudging through the desert or headed to a new peak, we know the traction, comfort, and waterproofing on these boots have our back.

bought my second pair.... after 32 years
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
No joke. I bought my first pair my senior year of high-school when my brother worked for Erehwon (remember Erehwon?!?). Two years ago, after some big Colorado hikes I decided it was time for a new pair, mainly becuase as I've gotten older my feet have "spread" a bit and I now wear almost a full size larger. So, it wasn't that my original Sundowners fell apart (they were still supporting my feet) but that I needed more room. I got the suede pair this time around, and they are just as great. I hike multiple days a week near my home, and try for a few big trips a year. This past year was the highlands in Scotland. My sundowners were great. Two things I recommend to people who are complaining about toes. Yes, these boots can be a bit snug initially. It's always a good idea to plan some toe-box room and order up a size with these. These boots will conform to your feet over time because they are leather. Which is FANTASTIC for fit and durablility. (see above re: 32 years). Also, I have always put a pair of Superfeet soles in my boots, Sundowners included. I believe these help not just with support, but in keeping my feet from sliding too far into the toe box on decents.
