Are the Canada Goose Keystone Boots truly waterproof?

Yes. They use a waterproof HDry membrane and a bellows tongue to keep water out. The leather upper is also water-resistant, so they handle wet trails and slush well.

How do they fit compared to other hiking boots?

They run true to size for most people, but the leather upper may feel snug at first. If you wear thick socks, consider going up half a size.

Are they suitable for summer hiking?

They are breathable for a waterproof boot, but the leather and membrane make them warmer than mesh hiking boots. They are best for cool to cold conditions.

Do they require a break-in period?

Yes. The leather upper softens over time, so allow a few short hikes to break them in before long trips.

What is the weight of each boot?

Each boot weighs about 1.5 pounds (size 9), which is heavier than many synthetic hiking boots. The weight adds stability but can tire feet on long hikes.
