The best boot is highly subjective. Both of the boots you mentioned are excellent, I would probably go with the One Xeros over the Garmonts.

I think I put over 1000 miles on my pair before the shoe laces snapped and I decided it was just time to replace them. I switched to Danners though, and Danners have been the most comfortable out of the box boot i&#39;ve worn so far. I&#39;ve had them for about a month now and they&#39;re still insanely comfortable and form fitting to my feet.

Love them, they come broken in pretty much out the box. Only downside is they take a good while to dry, and the laces that come with them get caught on everything in the wood line.

Very light and pliable. It took me a little longer to break mine in since I have orthotic inserts I use for my feet. After that period I no longer get blisters. They are great for everyday/work use as well. MSgt Private RallyPoint Member Sat, 22 Aug 2020 23:24:17 -0400 2020-08-22T23:24:17-04:00 2020-02-21T14:53:01-05:00
