Spacious boots, fit from the ankle so that with wool socks the boots don't sag on your feet, which is important when hiking. The outsoles have grip and stability, but are not too stiff.

— Show original

The boots play well, the shaft fits under or over the trouser leg and the boot is also comfortable to walk in.

Made the first trip with boots. I walked for 4 days and I must say that it was good

There are already other similar ones going. Good, thick base. Nokia's rubber is of high quality. The surface lasts a long time without breaking even at the fold.

The same good boots as the previous Nokia hiking boots. The previous ones lasted 28 years, hopefully these too.

— Show original

Fast delivery and the rubber boots are comfortable even if you wear them all day and walk for a long time. A woman's last should be wider for my own foot, but it doesn't hurt to go with a suitable sock.

Well-fitting boot and sturdy sole. Used in the forest and on a week's hike as well. A bit heavy for hilly terrain.

The stems are far too flabby and the blade part far too heavy. Return device.

Really good rubber boots for my feet and good for walking. I already have the third. These latest ones may be of lower quality, as water came through the other boot after a few months of use.

Works!

Use them in this wet German winter time to walk the dogs over the fields. Comfortable fit, good grip sole and no wet feet. Easy to put on. I can recommend these boots.

Does what it has to. The grip of the sole is good, which distinguishes the so-called from the basic buddies.

— Show original

Good to walk even longer distances. The stem is quite wide at the top, but luckily there is a strap tightening.

The Nokian Koli boot is so very comfortable, and the tread design provides excellent traction. I really like the way that the top of the boot can allow for heavier pant legs to be worn, and the it also facilitates easy on and off. Nokian boots, the best rubber boot. Period. Buy Nokian and help Finland fund that 1300 km fence along the border with Russia.

The boots have now been used and found to be excellent. The base is sufficiently rigid. I plan to use these shoes on a hike when the weather promises to be wet. These don't fit very busty feet, but they fit my type (long and narrow feet) perfectly. The ankle is suitable and the shoe does not slip on the foot. Excellent product. I recommend. It's also worth ordering big enough boots if you plan to leave wool socks.

Boots suitable for picking mushrooms and picking berries. The stem is long enough and can be tightened so that the berries and leaves do not fall into the boot. Supports the ankle appropriately.

Rubber boots that fit well on the foot. The mouth of the shaft could be a little stiffer, like in Nokia’s Kontio boots.

— Show original

Nice rubber boots for walking in the forest. They seem to work perfectly. The pant legs can be tucked into the stem and there are snow locks. It's a plus that you get studded. I am completely satisfied in these respects. You can't say anything about the duration yet.

— Show original

The narrow model is suitable for narrow calves and ankles. However, it does not support much due to the softness of the rubber. Easy to walk.

— Show original

Tight universal boot, generally just fine. There is room for improvement: softer sole for better grip the arm is slightly stiff at the ankle when driving a car the snow lock on the stem mouth does not stick

— Show original

Very comfortable shoe. Adjustable shaft tension and hiking shoe-style sole.

— Show original

Guaranteed Nokia quality! Sturdy and give good support to the foot and ankle. Fair sizing, a standard-sized boot fits a wool sock underneath without any problems. With the help of a strap that can be tightened, you can e.g. in forest work to make sure that there is no worse debris getting into the shaft of the boot.

Boots with a sturdy feel. A firm base.

Hi, I'm from Canada. I bouth same pair of these boots almost 12 years ago. I used to wear them a few hours a day, except the winter. I was absolutely happy with them, that's a reason I went for same kind again. Thanks Miro

— Show original

I don't think the shoe is suitable for forest use. It works maybe on the road and when walking flat, but even a little bit of uneven terrain, so the shoe doesn't give any support to the ankle. The thick sole makes the situation even worse, that the foot crushes when walking in the forest.

I don't know the durability yet. Very good for the feet. Good to walk. The stem can be tightened. Good looking ones

Good boots and a sturdy base! The possibility of installing studs increases safety!

Heavy, but warm and provides comfortable ankle support when sledding.

Good on the feet but poor quality, they fall apart in one summer.

The first Kolits have been in hard use for a couple of years on dog runs on gravel and off-road, no breaks. I bought these for slippery and studded, works.

— Show original

Pretty good shoes to wear and roll well when walking. Durability will show itself in time. That's why I don't dare to give 5 stars. My foot 43 with a boot of the same number fits a camping and wool sock well. So it's a good size.

— Show original

For wide calves and those who want to tuck in the pant legs. The material could be a little more refined. Also ok for hiking when sitting.

— Show original

Fits the foot really well. Light and sturdy.

Comfortable to wear and of high quality. You should be careful with the size. First, I had to order boots that were too big (standard shoe size 42/43, these 41 are the right size).

Boots that feel good and of high quality. Quite loose at the ankle.

Comfortable wide in the calf. Now even I, being thick-bellied, can gladly get my pant legs into my boot.

Well fitting boots. The best I've had in decades.

Excellent hiking boots. They are suitable for any terrain - in rocky terrain they may lose to hiking boots, but in swamps and other wet places they are superior. As always with rubber boots, you have to choose the socks well, but at least the skin of my feet has remained in good condition when there are enough layers of socks underneath. After two hikes (more than 700 km in total), the bottom pattern is still in moderate condition and no leaks have occurred.

The boots were the right size, I could go on a longer trip with hiking socks.

In the spring, the slippery ice-slippery surface was slightly slippery, and on the hard surface the legs were a little sore, but it was better in the forest.

Boot quality seems good. The fit could be better, they seem really wide in toe area, and I don’t have a narrow foot. Maybe they’re designed to be worn with a heavy sock. The boots for me will be fine for gardening and fishing. I was hoping to hunt in them but they fit too lose for long walks.

Other Nokian Kolit what I own. The parents lasted for about 7 years, although the use was not continuous. These seemed to be made of a slightly different material than the parents. Damn good on my feet.

— Show original

Lesti is absolutely wonderful. There is plenty of room for the toes, but the footbed holds tight and may rub for longer when walking. In addition, the heel can move quite a bit. But these hold water, unlike the Viking Falk Neo.

Excellent fit on the foot. Good grip on snow and even ice. Significantly better in use than traditional Kontio.

Have been in use for 2 years now and there is nothing bad to say.

First, these boots have a particular smell. It goes away after some use though. Now I have W (wide) feet, and I had to order these in a size longer than I usually do. Although there is a little more room at the end of my foot, the boot supports my ankle very nicely and doesn't allow my foot to just roam about anywhere. Of course, I have a little lift at the heel, but that's normal in my opinion. I walked in these, in forest paths, forest itself and on asphalt for the best part of 4 hours. I climbed down steep inclines to creeks, and back up. Not only did these boots not slip on any surface, even a muddy wet incline, they left my feet dry after it all. I was wearing a regular cotton sock with a thicker wool sock on top. This really secured my foot inside the boot. I had very little wiggle room. I could clearly feel the support the boot's sole gives my foot. To test them again, I went working outside for about 3 hours, giving them the business as I dug holes for trees, used various tools to get rid of rocks, stacked wood, etc. After all this physical work, my feet, who usually sweat a bit in most shoes, stayed dry still, and I felt comfortable to give the shovel the business with my foot with this boot at the end. What's also great is that even with a boot like this, I still have a lot of 'feel' for the ground I walk on. Overall, this must be one of my best buys so far. I'm glad Varuste exists, or else I wouldn't have even be able to get them. Never going back to "regular" cheap old rubber boots.

Very good ones have been in use. The first pair had a hole in the joint between the shaft and the bottom due to a manufacturing defect. The manufacturer handled my complaint and the delivery of the replacement pair properly.

Very good basic boot.

Ladies on foot. Tight from the ankle and thus ensures that the toes do not slide on the tip. Good wide heel / sole that gives rigidity in uneven terrain. Good looking.

Expensive rubber boots, okay. By no means particularly good for a longer trip. Yes on these walks, but if you can choose, I will put other footwear on my feet in the first place. Another questionable issue is sustainability. It is already after three uses that look like seams that will go with a certain degree of warranty replacement. These do not last longer than one summer.

Good at berry picking, but not very good at heavy work where rubber should be stronger.

Good boots. Been to myself in the fall as a hunting boot.

Price and quality meet. Really good on foot and supportive enough, self-employed in forest work. Like hiking boots that really hold water, the best boots which I walked. Now others are going. Due to the weakness of the insole, which is easily worn and the durability of the rubber compound, the previous boots cracked and punctured at the insole in four years.

— Show original

Top leg sit wellies, what I have owned, the third couple are going, the first lasted for three summers and the other one decided until the summer starts to leak. Really good for the leg, the duration is not convincing. If they lasted a little better, they would probably be the best partners in the world.

The boots are sturdy and comfortable to wear. Work great for walking in the woods and fields.

— Show original

These can be used in winter sheds and bogs as well as in cold ponds

— Show original

A sole with a tight and firm feel. I have pretty stubborn calves and so far Koli is the only boot that goes comfortably over the calves so that there is still some kind of pants in between. Yes, these will probably be walked on day trips at least. The studs I was thinking about seem to have ready holes. Should be better with zero lengths and rhizomes, possibly also on rocks slipped by rain.

Not as good fit than tretorn has been for me, but otherwise feels like quality product. However, I would not buy now a new pair if in need.

I don't miss anything else from the boots, of course there should be more ankle support

— Show original

Nokian Koli boots feel more fluffy and support less than before.

Based on short use, really comfortable on the foot.

The boot fits excellent at least on my own foot. The sole is sturdy and holds even in very demanding hiking terrain. The only downside is durability: the last pair of shoes I used last developed a leak at the seam of the sole and sole of the shoe on the inside of the foot after less than 200km of walking. The base pattern, of course, wears smoother; maximum kilometers for one pair I think 700-800 km, in a typical rather rocky mountain terrain. The size numbering is a little (half a number?) Tighter than its predecessor, the Trek Plus; I myself had to change from size 43 to size 44.

Really nice and supportive on the foot. The sole is like a sneaker. For once, partners who really have a good walk.

Sturdy and comfortable on the foot. Based on previous reviews, I bought larger than one standard boot size, because I use wool socks in my boots.

— Show original

Fourth pair in a row going. In almost daily use, the shoe has lasted about 3-4 years. By then, the base patterns are already pretty smooth. You may want to apply a silicone spray to the surface a couple of times a year, maybe that will explain the duration. 1 pair is studded for winter slippery, works quite well in that job too. The stem should be a couple to three cents longer, otherwise it’s hard to come up with suggestions for improvement.

My best rubber boot so far. These have been used daily since purchase. Note! The whole system is really loose; The Viking rubber boots have a size of 42, so they sit on their pricks. These boots I bought in size 41, and the ‘room for growth’ is still half the size. The boots were surprisingly heavy anyway, but I got used to it quickly.

— Show original

Good grip sole and fit on the foot. It feels durable, although I haven’t had much time to exercise yet. The shaft should be a little longer, as in the Finnjagd model. The tensioning mechanism of the arm is not quite the best either. But a fit and a good grip sole are important to me.

Really good step feeling, ie good on the foot.

Good boot for woods and wilderness. Sturdy and good sole to walk. The shaft should be a little more so that the pants would not get wet in the wet grass. The seam opened on the 3rd trip from the heel of the other leg, i.e. presumably a manufacturing defect and hopefully will not recur.

Well-fitting boots. Comfortable to walk. I can’t say anything about sustainability with such a couple of weeks of experience yet.

Really well suited to the foot, the standard boots compared to a comfortable supportive, really firm sole and durability also good. After four years of reasonably active use, the previous Koli had been walked to completion and when purchasing new ones there was no need to even think about alternatives. Perfect shoes for my use.

Relatively wide last, so easy to pull off. Not as comfortable as Tretorn Sarek boots, but much easier to pull on and off. Quality seems good.

Comfortable to wear. Slightly tight with the size normally used. If wool socks are going then it should be one size bigger.

Quality games.

One size larger could be ordered if you want to wear with wool socks. The woman's leg was flat and her ankle was quite wide, but the ladies walked, although the heels were tired after standing for a long time. I wonder a bit if there might be something wrong with the other heel, because sometimes it seems to snap / stick and come off inside ... The shaft of the boot could be longer. And that's how it happened that after 4-5 uses, the second boot started to leak between the sole and the upper - the warranty boots were obtained 12/17, but you won't be able to try them until spring 2018 ...

I cannot recommend these boots to anyone. They simply do not stand up to use. The first pair lasted for three weeks in hunting use, after which both started to leak from the seam of the stem and sole. I got new ones under warranty, but I had to wait more than a month for them. During that time, winter came and the new ones were no longer useful. Well, I took the new boots into use last summer and they lasted a couple of months this time. Again, both solved from the same place. Now you have to throw that famous waterfowl with these. In addition to everything, the structure is far too loose for my foot. Able to walk at most on the road, unusable in rocky terrain.

An excellent comfortable boot, have had them for two years and feel really good with them. My other two Nokian Boots are and feel just as good. Nokian Naali and Nokian Kaira. But unfortunately my Koli boots broke this week. Dry cracks. Unfortunately, it was not enough to lubricate them once a year.

— Show original

Other boots going because they fit well on the foot, But when you take new boots from the freezer then check the seams to make sure there is no patch. Starts to leak immediately.

— Show original

The first pair of these boots worked well for four years. Now taken from the frost, they leaked immediately.

A good boot, lasts about three years in professional use, after which the boot is completely shit all over. The duration of the boot should be better when, however, a costly investment. The Dunlops lasted a year and the Vikings cracked the bottom in two years.
