yeah its for real, why, hiked literally 100s of miles in those boots, put them through the absolute worst conditions from high mountains to the jungle swamps in south america, they hold up to anything, they are not for cold weather but the op is looking for something for warm weather hiking :tup:
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

Vibrams! Takes a few hikes to get used to them but they are super light and very hardy. No joke. And grips like a puma.

I picked up a pair of Keene Targhee II mid hikers from cabelas last year, used them all summer and through early archery. Still holding up well. I'm very happy with them.
