Want to love them
I bought two pairs together on sale. They get high marks for comfort, style and construction. They are extremly lightweight and comfortable and receive a lot of positive comments. My walk feels very natural in them and I wish I could rate them higher, but I can't. After two months of regular use, the right rear sole on the first pair became very unevenly worn, making it impossible to walk comfortably or correctly. I should note that I use full length corrective inserts, have regular chiropractic adjustments and know how to walk correctly. I've never had this happen with a pair of boots. Since I could not return them, I began wearing the second pair. After 2.5 months of regular wear both the left and right soles are wearing unevenly and will soon render this pair unusable also. I'm very disappointed because otherwise I love them but I need & expect more than 2-3 months from a pair of boots. As to waterproofing, I wore them in the woods on a day of light rain for a two mile hike. Halfway through my feet were very wet. They are marked "waterproof leather" but mine were not. Great for light casual use around town but these will not stand up to more rigorous use or conditions.

Beautiful comfortable boot
Excellent fit, style, light weight and very well made. I may even like them more than my $250 Ecco boots. Really a great value from a quality company

The only knock is the insoles are pretty hard. I swapped them out for better insoles ...
These are solid cold-weather hiking boots, but they are lighter than my tennis shoes. The only knock is the insoles are pretty hard. I swapped them out for better insoles and these boots are perfect.NOTE: the comfier insoles tend to be heavier than the original ones.

Need Lots and Lots of Laces
Had the boots about 11 months. Wear them once or twice a week. Been through 5 sets of laces. There's obviously a design fault with the eye loops.

Very pleased with these lightweight HH boots
I've been wearing these HH boots for approximately 8 weeks and have found them comfortable and warm during daily winter walks of around 3 miles. They are light to wear and I have found them to be waterproof when stepping through puddles and walking across wet grass/mud. My main use is on tarmac footpaths and easy-going paths across fields: I would probably use more robust boots for moorland hiking. I found the sizing to be fairly accurate - lightweight socks are a comfortable fit. Overall, I am very pleased with their performance for the day-to-day walking I purchased them for.

Immensely comfortable and extremely hard wearing
Helly Hansen boots are excellent. As a family we have several pairs and they have proved immensely comfortable and extremely hard wearing. These were to have replaced my original dark brown pair which are starting to show some signs of wear (they recently withstood 283 days of almost continuous use and in all weathers - including weeks at minus 20). Sadly Amazon for some reason sent this light tan pair instead of the colour I believed that I had ordered (dark brown). I have returned them today (free of charge of course) and will reorder hoping to get brown this time round. One of the snags of ordering on line.

Excellent hiking boot that doesn't stand out.
Really nice low-rise boots, just a bit bigger than a hiking shoe.The build quality is high, great materials and light weight so ideal for hiking and dog walking.They are a perfect fit for me but I have narrow feet.
