Sup /out/. I am backpacking from Norway to Germany next month and need a good pair of hiking boot around the $150 area. Anyone have any suggestions of places to look or brands to look at/avoid?

All Vasque footwear was 20% off when I bought a pair of Breeze 2.0 GTX's at REI over the weekend.

I have those same keens and I love them. Will probably buy again when these ones wear out.

Salomon, Lowa, Keen, Vasque, La Sportiva, Scarpa and Asolo are a good place to start. But ultimately check the ones that fit you best, not just the brand.

Are you walking from Norway to Germany or what do you mean with backpacking?

This. I'm partial to Salomon myself but make sure to try on a bunch of pairs in store before deciding.

I've only had one pair of Keens and I was disappointed how quickly they fell apart. The outsole came unattached from the leather at the flex point. I've seen this happen with friends who've gotten Keens.

Then again, they were the most comfy boots I've had.
