Product Description

The Garmont Eclipse hiking boot is a light, responsive boot with an easy flex. The Eclipse is comfortable and supportive for day hikes, light overnights, and casual wear. The nubuk control straps at the ball of the foot and instep support the foot. Instead of a standard EVA mid-sole, Garmont uses a polyurethane, which is a great shock absorber, yet stable and lasts longer. The lugs are also placed for maximum performance, with the rear lugs oriented for braking and descending and the forefoot lugs for acceleration and ascent.

Customer Reviews

These shoes fit big!
I'm on to my third order with these hiking shoes, which in the end I'm sure I'll be happy with. Most of the time I am a size 7. My first order, a size 7, had these shoes nearly coming off my feet, even with inserts. I put it down to just this particular pair being on the big side. I was wrong. The next pair, a 6.5, was too big as well. For the first time in my adult life, we're talking over 20 years here, I will be wearing a size 6 - assuming the size 6 will fit. Beware, order at least a half size smaller than what your normal shoe size is.
good luck.

Not my favorite, but durable
I bought these to walk in the woods with my dog. I am so used to running shoes that I don't find these comfortable. I bought the boot in this brand as well and did not like them at all. They were on sale for a great price so I gave them a try.

very stiff shoes
Ouch! These shoes are torture; I barely could walk a mile in them, so I couldn't imagine wearing them on a hike. They are very stiff and even after a couple months, they still haven't "relaxed" a little bit. They just are not comfortable at all.
