Not as good as its predecessor in qualityComfortable boot, have owned numerous pairs of Vasque boots but it seems the quality has degraded significantly. The old boots including the Breeze II were better made. The glue on the toe bumpers started coming loose almost immediately and since I had wore them in the outdoors (where you are supposed to wear them) they could not be returned so I have parked them in the closet to keep them from coming apart. This is the only major fault and the others are wear related so I will probably end up with another pair after the older pair completely fails.

Lace hooks are too short on this versionI have been using the Vasque Breeze style boot for around a decade (replacing every 2-3 years).
Support and general comfort is around as good as it used to be although it appears some quality reductions in a few areas and a few improvements. (eg wet floor traction)
However 1 major flaw that has caused and issue, and nearly has made me rethink replacing these next year with the same type.
The lace hooks are shorter and have a tendency to pop off the hook. I have created some work around but this is an infuriating feature. Unsure if it was a cost decision or just asthetics. Will the next update have deeper top hooks?
The old shoes used a deeper hook with round laces, the new one used a shorter hook with flat laces.

Awesome for Elk Hunting and BackpackingI spent 20+ days in the backcountry last fall in the Breeze III, and it was excellent. As a sponsored ultrarunner for years (and current Vasque-sponsored athlete), I have used a wide range of "waterproof" footwear. This is the first shoe/boot I've had that actually keeps water out after multiple hours/days, even in slush, bogs, and wet grass. I really like the Breeze III and will continue to hunt and backpack in the same pair next fall.

Sole of Shoe Wears out Quickly and Comes ApartI had purchased a pair of Vasque hiking boots several years ago, and they were amazing. They lasted me for about 3.5 years of fairly aggressive use, having hiked the White Mountains of New Hampshire regularly. When it was finally time to replace them, I was set on sticking with the company that made the pair that had already served me so well.
I purchased these in June of 2017. By January of 2018 the sole is nearly completely worn out and is peeling away from one of the boots. This summer saw very few long hikes as I has a 1.5 year old with me. I'm very disappointed with the poor quality of Vasque's newest hiking boot. They certainly are not worth their price.

From Texas Red Dirt, To Sitka Green MossI bought these boots as my first hiking boots. They have performed wonderfully.
I live in Texas, and have worn these boots all over the state. Paired with nice wool socks (Darn Tough), the summer heat didn't bother me at all.
On a recent hunting trip to Sitka, AK in October, I wore these boots the whole time. My feet got wet two times: 1) when we tipped our row boat into the Pacific going to the island and 2) when we hiked to the top of Mount Edgecumbe during a sleet/hail storm.
All and all, these boots have been an absolute joy to wear! Thanks Vasque!
P.S. They look like the day I bought em, about a year and a few miles ago.

Breeze III GTX Perform As ExpectedThis is my first pair of Vasque boots and am so glad I purchased the Breeze III. I was on my way to a weekend getaway with some light winter hiking when I stopped at a local shop to purchase new boots. What a great decision to buy these boots! No break in period was needed. Perfect fit. No heel rub. Excellent ankle support. Awesome traction trekking on snow covered trails. Kept feet warm and dry. Great purchase for a pair of well made boots.
