A pal of mine is an agent for them, they look very good and he uses them a lot.

Very soft, very comfortable, maybe a little too soft in really rocky mountain areas, but it depends how sure you are on your feet. And depends on whether they suit your foot shape too. I'd go and try a few different brands and see what feels best - footwear recommendations are always difficult because everyone has different shaped feet and different boots are built on different lasts, you need footwear made on a last which is similar to your foot shape.
