Description: Selling my Zamberlan Vioz Lux GTX RR backpacking and hiking boots, US size 10, Euro size 44H (44-1/2), Model 1996. The original owner used them for only 20 miles; I’m the second owner and have used them probably only 2 miles. I purchased them from REI’s Re/Supply Department. So, per REI’s policy for these previously owned boots, they are not returnable. The Re/Supply tag explained the reason the original owner returned the boots: He decided after his 20 mile hike that the boots were “too big for customer.” (See pictures of the Return tag.) The opposite issue for me—the boots are probably one size too small (I need a size 11 instead of size 10), unfortunately, since they are very comfortable and well made boots—the nicest I’ve ever owned. To help you decide if the boots would fit you, I measured the insole length with the footpad removed. It measures approximately 11” long (or 280 mm). Please see pictures. The outsole length (heel to toe) is approximately 12-3/4” (see picture). Included are brand new Zamberlan footpads and round laces ($30.25 value). Also included is a spare set of gray flat laces (see picture). Current retail price of this high end Zamberlan boot is $390. Finally, the Zamberlan abbreviations mean: “GTX”: GoreTex “RR”: Rubber Rand—i.e., the toe guard. Here’s Zamberlan’s description of this great boot: “An upgrade to Zamberlan's best-selling boot, the 1996 Vioz Lux GTX takes our marquee and unrivaled backpacking experience to a new level with several important upgrades to the original. Perfect for backcountry backpacking, hunting, other outdoor adventures requiring a supportive midsole, enduring comfort, and a high degree of foot protection. Features include: ▪ PU coated rubber toe rands add durability to the boot and life to the leather uppers, especially above the toe bump ▪ Upgraded Waxed Tuscan full-grain leather uppers are rich and long-lasting. These beautiful leathers are enhanced with Zamberlan's proprietary Hydrobloc® treatment for added water resistance and durability over time ▪ New calf-leather-lined collars add durability and comfort around the upper ankle. Get the feel of a leather-lined boot without compromising on waterproof performance ▪ Gore-Tex Performance Comfort membranes guarantee waterproof and breathable protection for the life of the boot ▪ The proprietary Zamberlan Vibram® 3D outsole with PU midsoles make for unique and unparalleled fit and performance. Large lugs can tear through any terrain while the pronounced rocker feels as if it is carrying you and your pack up the mountain. Excellent downhill braking is achieved with a steep heel undercut and superb torsional rigidity is achieved through a solid TPU plate over the arc ▪ High Resistance Treated hardware allows for an extended life without corrosion, additional durability against rocks and debris, and easy passing of laces towards preventing breakage ▪ ZBPK Performance Fit is our highly regarded backpacking last defining Zamberlan's fit! ZBPK features an excellent heel lock, an anatomical wrap over the top of the foot, and a roomy toebox for comfort ▪ The ZFS (Zamberlan Flex System) allows the boot to comfortably flex forward without compromising lateral support ▪ Waxed Black color variation comes with a solid red flat lace and a red & black round lace ▪ Waxed Brick color variation comes with a solid gray flat lace and a gray & brown round lace ▪ Made in Italy” Shipping cost via USPS Ground Advantage is based on a box size of 15” x 11-1/2” x 7” and a shipping weight of 4 lbs., 12 oz.
