Best Low Top Hiking Boot Ever Made!

Best Low Top Hiking Boot Ever Made!
I live in one of the most remote areas in the lower 48 and spend all my time in the mountains. These are rugged and warm like a boot, but have a low top, and are comfortable like a shoe. I have bad knees so prefer to wear a low tops so my ankle can twist and bend, preventing my knee from doing so. But, it is almost impossible to find a heavy-duty low top that can handle the terrain of the Rocky Mountains for long backpacking trips and big game hunts. Then I found La Sportiva Spire GTX's. I have worn these for years now. I have the pair I'm currently using and at least one or two new pairs tucked away in the closet; I don't ever want to be without these shoe-boots ever again. In my opinion they are the absolute best. The sole is stiff, they are warm, but still have excellent breathability, they are 100% waterproof as long as you prevent moisture from coming in the top. They are truly the best of all worlds! My one complaint is the price tag. I pay it because they are worth it and still more affordable than a real pair of boots. I highly recommend these hiking shoes. I absolutely love them.For reference: If you've never worn La Sportiva they fit very similar to Nike's. I wear an 11.5 in both brands.
