Asolo Fugitive GTX - waterproof (Gore-tex liner) - sturdier than many day-hikers (I need good ankle support) but probably not designed for carrying heavy packs. I wore them up Mt Major to make sure I had no problems with them, but Mt Washington was my second hike in these boots. No issues at all - no break-in period was required. They were probably more expensive than some of the alternatives, but I'm miserable if my feet aren't comfortable. Of course, fit is personal, but I am happy with my choice.
