Anyway, I was a little concerned about buying boots off the internet without first trying them. I finally ran out of time as the Mt Shasta trip was approaching and just went for it. I got the 45 which were a little tight at first (more on the left than the right). After wearing them for a few hours the leather lossened up and they fit very comfortably now. I had a cheap set of $55 ebay boots before ; so although they were just at $200 delivered (I found the best deal on ebay), they have a very nice quality and fit and I'm very glad to have purchased them.

I got the regular black ones instead of the vented ones. They also come in waterproof. I never got hot in the base version and of course it never rains in Southern California.
