<DIV><FONT face=Arial>For what it's worth, while I liked my Montrail
Hardrocks on my 2004 PCT thru-hike, I had problems with them on my
2007 thru-hike. They uppers were worn and torn in a few hundred miles, and on
one shoe an inner plastic piece on the outside of the heel poked into my ankle
so I had to cut open the shoe and trim it. I don't know if they lowered quality
or if I was just unlucky.</FONT></DIV>
