Great in theory poor in implementation
It is a great idea. A hiking sole on a mucker. I live in an area with very slick clay and have fallen many times with the regular garden mucker so when I saw the sole on the hiking mucker I was excited. But it is poorly executed. Had they just put a substantial sole on the garden mucker they would have had a winner. Instead they tried to make a "hiking shoe". Many reviews talk about the sizing being incorrect for women as a men's 7 is listed as a woman's 8. I wear a women's size 9 so followed the advice of other reviewers and ordered the men's 7 which is generally a woman's size 9. The fit is fine in terms of length. But the shoe is built up around the ankle and gouges when walking. The heel is large and sloppy. I ended up adding another insole and heel cup to boost my foot up enough that the back of the shoe won't gouge my achilles tendon while walking and the heel is not so sloppy. With these modifications I am making it work but I won't order another pair.More detail ...
