Thanks for suggesting these. I bought a pair for doing the Everest Base Camp Trek. I was going to wear trail runners until I saw that a Cyclone had gone through the area and dumped a load of snow. I got a similar pair and broke them in quickly. They were a bit hot at lower elevations, but were perfect for when the trails became covered in slush. They fit my feet perfectly and held up well.

In reply to George F. I hear you! Annoying when manufacturers essentially make a new product but keep the same name. The Salomon Ultra 3s are essentially different shoes from the 4s. Sigh.

I have had 3 pairs of the Hi-tec Altitudes that I wore around the house for working outside, cutting firewood, etc.. However, the newest versions are nowhere near as comfortable as the old ones and seem to be much poorer quality. I’ll have to check out these NortiV8 boots!
