The Oboz Sawtooth Ascent Mid Waterproof Walking Boots are ideal for hikers and backpackers seeking a durable, supportive mid-cut boot capable of handling rocky and uneven wilderness trails. The primary benefit is the combination of superior Vibram traction and specialized foot support through the O FIT Insole system, though the robust construction may require a brief break-in period for some users before achieving peak comfort.

Yes, they generally run true to size, but the 'Wide' designation offers extra room in the forefoot for those with broader feet or a need for a higher volume fit.
Yes, the O FIT Insole is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if you have specific medical requirements for your arches.
Keep the exterior clean and consider applying a leather or synthetic-safe water repellent spray periodically once the factory finish begins to wear off.
While the B-DRY membrane is waterproof, these boots are not insulated. They are best suited for three-season hiking but can be used in mild winter conditions with thick thermal socks.
Wipe off mud with a damp cloth or soft-bristled brush. Do not allow mud to cake on, as it can dry out the materials and reduce the breathability of the upper.
Wear them around the house or on short, flat walks for 10-20 miles to allow the EVA midsole and upper materials to conform to your foot shape.
Ensure your waterproof gaiters are used in deep water; even waterproof membranes can be overwhelmed if water enters through the top of the boot.
To ensure the best fit, wear your trail socks when trying on the boots, as the 10 Wide sizing provides extra volume throughout the midfoot and toe box. The boots are compatible with most aftermarket orthotics if you prefer to swap out the stock O FIT Insole. For care, keep the B-DRY membrane functioning effectively by cleaning off mud and grit with a soft brush and lukewarm water after every trek. Avoid using harsh soaps or heat sources like radiators to dry the boots, as high heat can compromise the leather or synthetic components. Air dry them naturally at room temperature with the insoles removed to ensure moisture escapes completely.
