Xrc Boa II
The XRC Boa II shoe is a great trail running shoe. What I like my self the you don't have lace's to draw up and tie. Just turn the dial on the back of the shoe and it tightens to your desire. I use them on the trails in Montana and the best thing is they last longer than most shoes. I would buy them again as I have. pat

Great light shoe
For shoe size, stick to your regular shoe size and you'll be fine. These are one of the lightest and most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. Works really great in the rain and keeps your feet dry! I'm thinking of buying a 2nd pair just to have in case they may discontinue this shoe.

Great shoe!!!!!!!!!
I originally bought these shoes for trail hiking, but they are so comfortable they have become my every day shoe whenever possible. Frank

Awesome shoe
I ordered a half shoe size too big as recommended but it was too big for this model. Other than that this shoe is awesome.

Incredible
This shoes have it all. I like more of a trail running shoe for hiking, and this northface shoe seems like it can handle the trails of Arizona that compose of some sharp and jagged rocks on the trails. I ordered a 1/2 size larger as was suggested by purchasers of the hedgehodge shoe, and it was actually too big so I have to return. Stick to your normal size for this model! I did try on the shoe and it was very comfy and the BOA works excellent, no more cactus covered shoe laces while hiking!
