HAIX Scout 2.0

Forest Tech

3rd time writing I messed up the form. Awesome boots way lighter then logger boots way sturdier then hiking shoes. I’m hiking about 10 miles a day cruising timber in WV. Unless I’m in soupy Skidder mud my feet are dry. Streams, rain, dew I’m dry. If I’m ankles deep in skid trails My socks get a little damp. Nothing but a rubber boot will keep you dry in that so I can’t complain. My feet and back have never felt better after a day of work, priced fairly, and I expect to get good life out of them. I wear 10 regular in everything and 10 regular fits great. If Haix keeps making boots like this I don’t see myself going to any other brand. KEEP MAKING SOFT TOE BOOTS, not all of us need the protection. Most of us foresters (at least in the states) need something sturdy but without the discomfort and weight of steel toes.

almost

I love the brand and the boot was well made and fit well but I am a vegetable farmer and they were too stiff through the heel to work on my knees with my feet folded behind me. Otherwise these would have been great boots for orchard or vineyard work.

One tough boot

I only gave it a 9 because the insole I feel is too light
I enjoy these boots
I was in some very wet muddy conditions and walked for an hour and did not have wet feet when done
The support is great and the feel is very comfortable
When on hard surfaces I find the insole lacking
I will be getting something to replace the insole
Fantastic boot well worth the money

Great pair of boots

Very comfortable and light weight. Are an awesome boot!

Quality boots

Just got these boots in and I was very pleased with the quality of these boots. Break in has been a little rough and not quiet as comfortable as expected but still feel great on my feet. I wear a 10 1/2 in tennis shoes and ordered a 10 1/2 in these and they fit perfect. Excited to see how they last and perform once broke in!

Scout 2.0

Overall very comfortable but it does have a narrow toe box and should have ordered my normal size. Very well made and would recommend.

Like these a lot

Comfortable right out of the box. Good balance of light weight, stable, agile.

Scout 2 - light stable

Comfortable right out of the box. Lightweight for such a stable boot. Military boot stability and agility without the military boot appearance.

Mon ami les aime.

Mon ami les aime beaucoup quand j'ai le donne ces bottes comme cadeau. Il faut qu'il tienne les bottes pour le froid quand il déblaye la neige, et ça fonctionne bien pour son travail.

Not for Me

I've worn HAIX for the last 15 years and I figured I'd try these hiking boots. There appear to have everything that you would want in a hiking boot, but there were very stiff. I think I just might go back to the Airpowers. If these boots are made like everything else by HAIX they will last for years.

Comfortable boot

The HAIX boot works well. Do not over tighten the laces as the back of the heel blisters may form. I walked ten miles with no problems, but when tied tighter blisters formed in less than a mile.

Still my go to company

First of all I am extremely fussy about my foot comfort. I have always rejected shoes and boots that refuse to wear correctly. My first venture into Haix is with the heavy duty logging boot several years ago. I was so impressed with the comfort and fit and finish of these boots that I purchased a second pair in order to ensure that I had many years of quality boot. Although those boots were designed for logging and work requiring stability and safety toe, I have even use them in hunting applications. Because of the company reputation I purchased the scout boot and was immediately impressed. Same quality, fit and finish was perfect, and again I purchased a second pair. These are my every day wear foot ware.

I highly recommend this company and the products they provide.

Seems like a good boot but small toe box

Boot appeared well designed and constructed. The lacing system allowed the wearer have the lower laces looser or tighter than the upper laces depending on preference. The boot also did an excellent job locking the heel in place and ankle support felt solid. Sadly, like most modern designed boots, they have a narrow toe box even in the wide (though it is wider than other brands I have attempted such as Danner, Lowa and Altberg). Unfortunately I had to return them but if they had a wider toe box such as Altra (they make trail runners) I think this would have been a perfect boot. The customer service rep always answered e-mails quickly and was very helpful.

Fantastic Fit

Solid boot

This is a good solid boot for outdoor work. Looks really well made, true to size and comfortable from day one. Much lighter than my other work boots. Highly recommended.

Fan for life

Was an entire size up from the suggested size using the foot in cm guide; luckily, they fit perfectly. They are light, very comfortable, extremely well built and are surprisingly quiet. In addition, the Vibram soles offer great grip. Overall awesome boot. Couldn't really ask for more.

Great boot

The boots are awesome (as expected). I will say though that the toe box is not as wide as other Haix boots I use and I am a bit disappointed, but they aren't uncomfortable. They are performing well overall. Primary use is walking/hiking through unmaintained ROWs, streetside, swamps.
