Made for my foot

Likes

Been a fan of Asolo for many years. I had had 2 other pairs of the TPS520's in the past but, decided to go a slightly different route this time. This boot fits my foot like it was designed to fit it. Size is true to my foot but, some might not like the narrow fit. I have not used them out on the trail but, have worn the for few long days working inside and outside of my house. They have needed little break in time for me. I am really looking forward to get them out on the trail. I hope to do another review in about 3 weeks after my backpacking trip. These boots are a solid option to the all leather 520's.

Dislikes

My only negative is the insole. I have a high arch and the insole that comes with these just does not give me the support that my feet need. But, this is just minor issue for me because I wear a certain type of insole for all of my shoes and boots.

Comfy and Sturdy Heel

by ronald, from VT, United States Written on March 26, 2020

I have only wore these for about fifteen hours inside my home. Previously, I have one asolo 520 due to my heel and arch. I have lost weight and my heel and arch are very good, but i feel i still need a sturdy heel boot with good arch support as well as an after market sport insole with good arch support. I take between 10 - 10.5 us men and i ordered the 10.5. These are No longer than the 520s and have great comfort and arch support as well as a sturdy heel. I think you could hike with these right out of the box. They are a tad long inside, but on the outside no longer than the 520s.
