hey, did these release widely? Feel like they didn't make it to Europe, but I might be wrong?

^ Don't know about EU, but they have been on NDC's sales rack for quite a long time here in Japan. When I checked few days ago, US10 was still there for $80 or so...

fire!! zoom terra zaharas!!!Just tested my Mountain Flys on 4 miles of rocky trail with melting snow today. With the Mountain Flys your feet will be VERY warm and comfortable, BUT the heel does not have the zoom air so you can feel heel impact a lot more. It’s not bad, but noticeably different from the Zaherras. With the Zaherras, you can wear thick socks to make up for the warmth, but they aren’t water proof. I think the traction is about equal on both.
I love the Mountain Flys for the overall comfort, warmth and water proofing but you can’t go wrong with either. The Zaherras are VERY close all around in comfort and actually have better heel cushioning in my opinion, but I’m giving the Mountain Flys the slight advantage overall.
My gf wore her Zaherras today.
Edit: I would go up a half size in both.

Maybe it was just me but I expected more from those Zaherra's as far as being water resistant. Enjoyed them for a hike I went on but when I wore them out for a rainy Chiefs game my foot got damp. Ended up returning them and eventually bought the Mountain McFly's.

, thanks man. Just got mine and like the feel. $80 shipped on eBay. Family snow trip next weekend, so I hope it’s not too damp to get my feet wet. Will post some pics.

I never expected Zaherras to be water resistant just looking at how they're constructed; can't even keep dirt on a hike out of those impossible to clean areas...not even submerging in dirt....just from dust in the air from walking. That's my only gripe (dirt...not water as they aren't intended for that). Mountain Flys for water situations for sure. Un-DSing them tomorrow for a trip to the ski hills; I'm sure they'll be just fine. Zaherras are perfect for dry hiking.

In case anyone was interested in the Supreme Goadome’s, the tongue is lightly debossed with branding, (Swoosh), AIR, SUPREME.

I’d like to see a retro of the ACG Air Max Conquer boot from 2011 in some new colors. I had the brown and blue pair when they dropped and wish I had gotten all of them.

I wore Merrells for over 20 years. Zaherras I use now are WAY more comfortable. The Merrells do have more stability b/c the midsole is so damn rigid; probably still more appropriate when hiking with a large backpack. That said, the ACGs are just so much more pleasurable to wear all day for me.

interesting, thanks for the insight. The Merrells just had a cool rugged look to them, but they didn't have my size. but yea my Zaherras have more bounce and of course that cool ACG branding.

I think Adidas is low-key. I have a pair of AX 1 Mid GTX (Gortex) I still wear when its wet outside. This is the colorway I have:

Also, I highly recommend the NB x TDS Niobium. Though I have the Snow Peak collab., I think this one is a great deal:

BTW, wore my Mountain Flys for the first time on a ski trip this past wknd; love them! So much more comfortable that the Air Conquer I've been wearing for years. And not having to deal with laces during a ski day where there's lots of on/off was awesome.

I rock new balance tough. My go to shoe when it's wet outside is the new balance herro v5. Those Nio Biums were pricey but that's nice discout. i like how they used the m801 midsole.Also, I highly recommend the NB x TDS Niobium. Though I have the Snow Peak collab., I think this one is a great deal:

I have yet to grab a pair of the Herro V5, but it's on my list. Yes, really dig the M801 midsole. You probably noticed the additional 20% off at checkout (although, you my have to pay shipping). I understand; they're still pricey.
