Kim,
I know this message is kind of late but I'm just catching up after the 
Thanksgiving Holiday.
I also love the Vasque Velocity hikers.  They have a lot of toe room and are 
built to last.  The traction is also great and I have used them in the 
Sierras several times.  My husband has worn the Montrail Hardrocks which 
seem to have a narrower toe space.  He likes their support but also likes 
the Vasque Velocity because of the extra toe room.  We will be wearing the 
Vasque on our thru hike in '08 but might need to change up depending on how 
things go.
I don't think anything should be written in stone as far as gear goes on a 
thru hike that is over 2650 miles.  As we go along, conditions might change 
and I'm sure so will our feet!  We have a pretty good idea of our options as 
far as shoes go but are always willing to try something new if the 
opportunity arises.
See you on the trail,
Cindy Peters
