Buying my first boots for Battle Assembly and on to CHBOLC.

Do the Garmont T8 NFS 670 Lightweight boots live up to the hype? does anyone have experience wearing them both garrison and field as advertised?

Im worried the focus is on comfort and not function. Do not want to get a couple weeks in and them not be what I really need.

Never worn this style/make. I usually go with Danner or Belleville. Both of those makes serve both comfort and function quite well.

I always wear the issue winter boots. The extra insulation is padding that makes them comfortable and prevents blisters.

I wore both the lightweight and the regular during my time in 10th Mtn.
Absolutely loved both of them.
The lightweight ones dried fast, but with one big draw back, they suck on rocks. The sole was horrendous on slippery, hard surfaces. Other than that, well worth the money. In your case in particular, comfort is a big plus.
The regular garmonts were always a go to and in fact, I've been out for 2 years and still have a set.

Good to know thanks for sharing your experience with them. Nice to hear the distinction between the 2 versions.
