I own only shoes of this company so I shall limit my opinions to the shoes alone. They are well built, made of camelskin type of material, although I have seen and owned leather woodlands as well. Very very tough and long lasting.
The sole is not that lightweight as a sports shoe but feels about right for adventure shoes which this company claims they are. On a lighter note, if you are short heighted, this will easily increase your height by a couple of inches at least.
