I have spent my entire life running from “comfortable” things… if only because comfortable is usually a euphemism for “hideously ugly.” Yes, I know, Adidas has Stella McCartney and Nike is not that bad, but just walk into any REI or Patagonia store and be prepared to gag on fleece. So when I got the chance to road test a Naot boot, I was skeptical. And by skeptical, I mean I think I full on scoffed.

And then I put the Sirocco boot on my foot and walked around Northern California for a week. It was cool looking and beyond comfortable. I think i even fell asleep in them one night… and At $215 for a boot you will wear for years and will never give you blisters, it’s reasonably priced.
