    I've spent many long hours testing this boot and have been pleasantly surprised by its performance and comfort.
    Finding a boot that spans the needs of multiple activities in a variety of terrain can be a challenge and I think these are the all-rounder boots that are ready for any adventure.

    From this video was uploaded, I've done snowdon 3 times, peak district twice, bring them to jamaica and hiked blue mountain peak, and few local hikes in Surrey...
    Still can't fault the boots, they are going strong.

    Got these in black for my wife. They looked so good I had to get some as well. They are waterproof. Walked in heavy rain, long wet grass, mud, ice. Feet stayed dry over 3 days. Boots are very grippy. Best I’ve had for the price. Hope they last as other people have said they fall apart after a couple of months.

      Online it says that the shoe is for women? I’m a man and my size is 11 so should I still get the same size or is the shoe width or length going to be different as it’s for women?

      @@Jack-xm2df what website are you looking at them. If it's from the US they should say the M/W size. Should be the same on any Vans website. Most of them are on sale right now to. I know the advertising say women's but they are unisex. Just order your normal size as they are true to size. The regular MTE 1, 2, and 3's all fit the same for me. If they don't fit you can always return them. Hope that helps ✌🏻✌🏻👊🏻😎💯

    Are day good for daily use? I walk a lot and FAST! I searched for good shoes that are wide enough for my foot, durable, good for winter and also are below 100€
    I saw them and thought "damn they look nice and are probably wide 'n comfy enough for me and maybe durable af
    Just bought them for 128€ and now I wait for the shipping ^^
    Anything I need to take care about them? And: impregnate them?
    When yes, with what exactly?

    • @theadventurousprince
      @theadventurousprince  2 года назад

      They are good for daily walks and quite comfortable.
      Bare in mind they have an insulation inside, so wouldn't be the best in summer if you walk a lot.
      Winter time they are perfect. I will test them in deep snow soon at Mount Snowdon in December 🤞

    I bought a pair of those too. And also bought SK8 - MTE 2 Dachsund to compare.
    MTE-3 's are more for colder weathers than MTE-2 's. So, I mean your climate should better be colder if you're choosing MTE 3's over MTE-2's .
    I live in Hamburg Germany, and it is not a warm place. But in last 10 years, there were maybe 10 days of deadly-ish colds. But I must say it really rains a lot here, a lot.
    On the otherhand MTE-2's are definetely, without hesitation I can say a lot more comfortable. If you think that this MTE-3 comfortable, you'd be feeling like walking on the clouds with MTE-2.
    At the end of the day, I'll keep only one of them and, I couldn't decide which one. MTE-3 is too heavy and less comfortable. But would provide my a lot of advantage perhaps when I ride a bike. However, it is also not a proper shoe to ride a bike, since it's really wide, and has thick sole.
    On the other hand, MTE-2 is just nice, looks nices, fits and matches to other clothes better (IMO). Although all the signs are showing MTE-2, I feel like I'll regret that decision :)))

    • @theadventurousprince
      @theadventurousprince  2 года назад

      That's so true they are wider and for the colder hikes.
      I'm planning on using them more for the winter and hiking in the snow up north.
      Happy Adventures :)

      They have a bit of extra space mate. I have wide feet too so it's hard for me to find the right hiking boots...
      These fits perfectly and also enough space for thick socks while being comfortable walking for 5 hours non stop.
