Got the M77 size 44. I normally wear 10 1/2 UK which would be 44,5-45. The recommendation to take one size smaller is spot on.
I do not have extensive experience with proper boots so take my review for what it is. My primary reference is to a pair of a Salomon trekking boots which the M77 are replacing.
I write this review after two 5km walks.
About the build. They are well put together with thick leather that looks really high quality and neat stitching. I would have preferred a stitched outer sole but I knew what I was buying in that respect and the moulded PU sole looks neat. A big plus that there is no lining meaning that you can quickly get going after getting wet and there are no mystery materials that may deteriorate over time.
The fit is quite spacious. I think my foot is quite normal and the toe area is wide. Despite this I do not feel like the foot is sliding around in the boot. The lacing provides good and even pressure on the foot while providing ample room for the toes to wiggle about. The heel grip is good but could be better. The only fit issue I have is that there is a bit of pressure on the foot right where the lacing starts. I do not think I have tall or high feet but maybe this will improve as I brake them in. Given the wideness of the last there should be enough material to allow the shoe to comply in this area.
The included removable inner sole provides some damping and support but I will contemplate getting a more contoured and less compliant inner sole for max comfort.
I have had no issues with wear comfort. The boots are comfortable right out of the box.
The sole is quite rigid. You feel it if you step on a sharp rock but most uneven surfaces go unnoticed. This was my main complaint with the Salomons. If the sole is too compliant my feet get tired of all the information about the surface being transmitted through the soles.
The step rolls nicely and the shoes provide adequate support.
My boots weigh 800g a piece which is almost double that of the Salomons but they do by no means feel heavy to wear. I was pleasantly surprised by the lightness considering it is a proper army boot.
I also got the bespoke socks and they are really nice. They are made of a not very elastic material which looks like wool and have a nice heel reinforcement which looks like leather. They sit solidly in the shoe. I recommend these over regular extra socks.
On the looks. I think the boots are beautiful but probably somewhat bulky for city use. The toe is quite big and rounded which is great for trekking but not for sleekness.
Overall I am super happy with the boots and with the shopping experience.
They only thing that bothered me was that I got no delivery notification but I suspect that’s on the mail carrier.
BUY THESE BOOTS!
Just wanted to let you know the boots arrived and they’re a perfect fit! If anybody ever asks you what boot size fits EU 40 tell them 37 is the way to go.
Used them? Love them! Best boots ever and they cost less than any fancy sneakers and they last for 5 to 6 years with daily use. Only “con” is the walk in period as they are very stiff so wear thick socks and have a band aid ready but for the lifetime of the boots the con is worth it.
I moved to Norway about 4 years ago and picked myself a pair of M77 on the recommendation of my boyfriend and they are without a doubt the best boots I have ever owned just in terms of sheer toughness. I have flat feet so having a good shoe is important to me and there is plenty of room to fit a decent set of insoles in there to be able to keep on hiking all day.
When you buy these new, they don’t fit perfectly yet.
Find a shallow river or similar, with the M77 on, walk with them in the river to soak them completely and walk for a long time with wet feet and boots for a while to get perfect fit!
It’s not comfortable, but the boots will have a perfect fit after this! Then polish with some good black shoepolish to waterproof them, and keep applying as needed to keep them shiny and waterproofed…you’ll have boots that’ll last for a long time!
One thick sock will be more than enough, that was my experience in -37 degrees Celsius, but only if you’re active…stand still in these temperatures, and you’re a snowman in no time 😛
I wore mine for about seven years after leaving the armed forces, including taking them to Israel, wearing them when hiking in the desert. I used the woolen socks from the navy when doing so, in 45 degree weather (in the shade). I was the one whose feet was the coolest of anyone, and that smelled the least, after a week of hiking in the Negev.
They do, however, get cold in the winter, as there is very little insulation in them. I know a few people who have two pairs, one for the winter, and one for the rest of the year, with the winter pair being a size too large, to accomodate extra socks in the wintertime.
I recently purchased a pair of M77 black combat boots and I have to say that they are by far my favorite winter boots. I previously had a pair of Dr Martens boots, but once i had M77 boots worn-in, definitely prefer them!
The M77 boots are incredibly comfortable and they have a sleek, military-inspired design that I love. They are also incredibly durable and have held up well in the harsh winter weather. I’ve worn them on long hikes and they have never let me down.
Overall, I would rate the M77 combat boots a 10/10. They are the perfect combination of style and function, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a new pair of black winter boots.
Do take a size smaller than usual, otherwise they can feel big on the sides. Also recommend protecting them with tons of shoe polish. Once worn in, super comfortable.
I have to say, those are one of my favorite boots for hiking and hunting. I have had one pair for almost 9yrs and one year of army use, sadly they now got a hole in them.
Took 5 years, but wore out a pair of these. The sole for one of the boots broke down (I did manage to step into a puddle of fuel at a gas station with that sole). The rest of the boots were perfectly fine, even after 5 years.
One note about the included laces – ONLY round laces work on hook boots, not flat laces, so a little disappointed about receiving flat laces originally. Other than that, definitely recommend!
