In the mid 70s I rocked the Vasque Hiking Boot. Drove out to Outdoorsman in Rattown. They ate up most my Worlds of Fun paycheck. I still have those SOB's heavy as lead but cant wear them out.

I"m assuming those are the old vasque with the Norwegian welted soles? Those things are amazing. Vasque really went downhill when they started doing all laminate soles instead of stitched. Anyway, we had a pair of those vasque in the family. They went to Philmont with me and both my brothers a total of 7 trips with over 100 miles each time.
Everyone in my family outgrew them, and I ended up giving them to one of my best friends in college. He still has them and wears them all the time.
I'd completely rock those Vasques all day every day if I owned a pair. I wear my big Merrell Wilderness boots a lot (as I've talked about on here before).
