After a long search for the perfect tramping shoe, I think I've finally found it. Thanks to the team at Further Faster for their excellent service, advice and patience.
The Raptor ticks every box for me - rugged enough for multi-day tramps, exceptionally grippy, lightweight, and supportive. I have bunions and always thought I needed a wider toe box, but the straight-toe design has actually given me better support and comfort.
I'm also happy to trade a little cushioning for a tougher, longer lasting shoe that won't need replacing every year. Best of all, they were comfortable straight out of the box with no hot spots, blisters, or wearing in period. They've performed brilliantly on every terrain I've thrown at them so far. Highly recommended.
