Schnee's Beartooth 0g Longterm Review

[Jordan]

Thank you.

I got a pair of the Beartooth's this past Sept and wore them quite a bit over the hunting season. No issues and they were great right out of the box. As part of my fitness plan for an elk hunt I'm going on next November I've been going on 5-8 mile hikes every weekend. I'm wearing a 30lb weighted vest and have had no issues what so ever. Really love these boots.

I'm looking for a replacement for kenetrek mtn extremes. They've been ok but I don't like how it feels like I'm walking around with blocks underneath. Would anyone be able to comment about that on these beartooths. I need some decent ankle support, but the thick soles of the mtn extremes seem to encourage my ankle to roll.

Having owned both I find the beartooths to feel way more stable. I struggled with rolling my ankles in the mountain extremes.

Overall, the Beartooths have been extremely comfortable. I've worn them 5-6 days a week for the past couple of months, and from a comfort standpoint, I've been very satisfied. Even on a couple of 10-mile days, my feet have remained happy.

However, after three months, I'm starting to see more wear and tear than I expected. The leather on the tongue and upper part of the boot is showing significant signs of wear. The boots definitely look like they're breaking down a bit. In all fairness, this is somewhat expected given that I've put 25+ miles on these boots per week this spring.

At this point I would recommend these boots, I am planning on buying a pair of the V2's to put into my rotation.

I will have to replace my Lowa Tibet Hi's eventually and I'm leaning towards the Schnee Granite 0g.

Thanks for the review.
I haven’t been looking for new boots very long and I’m not in a hurry to buy.

The Beartooth is on sale for about 30% off now.
Do sales get any better?
