[QUOTE="meatyrem, post: 2005359, member: 26633"] What I like the most about the crispi is their injected polyurethane midsole that give much better support because it’s a more dense material and doesn’t break down as much and as quick as the EVA midsole which is what the kenetreks use I went away from the EVA because the soles break down too quick and what I found through Lowa and crispi using the polyurethane midsole is it takes much longer to break down and it supports heavier weights either from pack weight or just larger person is it holds up better under heavier loads which is why these style of boots are sought after by backcountry hunters carrying heavy packs. I’m larger 280lbs and have great support and the rebound off every step is great in that the sole doesn’t skwish down as much as EVA midsole and anything that has Eva midsole is too squishy and doesn’t rebound like the polyurethane midsole. I have the Lowa mountain boots for my job and while I’m on duty sometimes for 16+ hours it really pays off with that better sole. [/QUOTE]
