I'm super impressed you landed a company like Danner. I've had three pairs now for over ten years and they have served me in both on-duty and off-duty purposes beyond compare. It is because of these I don't flinch at spending money on good footwear. Danner really changed my opinion about military and LE boots and as a result I invested in some Mountain II's for casual wear that look about as good and feel as good as they day I got them eleven years ago.
While a bit heavy and "Clunky" as my wife would say with green and red laces, they have really stood the test of time and with an excellent customer service and American made and backed warranty I have been more than pleased. Most of the guys I deployed with wore Danners or Matterhorns and they have really held up in rough terrain and in all weather. Wearing them "off-duty" and in plain clothes they are quiet, weatherproof, and reliable. They are a bit heavy, but other than that I have no complaints other than I can't wear them in summer or wear an ankle holster with them. Great job Massdrop maybe you'll move more into tactical lineups down the road as well.

SeadonkeyLoveThanks for your insights and glad you appreciate this drop! I also had one of the older Mountain Lights II's from the 80s, had it resoled and the upper still held oh so nicely.
This new version of the MLs is even a little bit lighter (perfect for city/everyday use) and just as comfortable and durable as the original. Keep your eyes peeled for more styles coming in the future!

TomasVThis won't end well for me... I have a bit of a boot/shoe fetish.

TomasVI just looked at your history... I can see misery loves company. On a side note, do you guys have a direct DM or PM system on here? I have a question.

SeadonkeyLoveI have to agree whole heartedly with Seadonkey. Danner's are the best! Own three pairs (two Arcadia's and a RAT {non-USMC stamped). Their "Made in USA" premium range are outstanding! If Massdrop hadn't bled me dry these last few weeks I'd be all over these boots!

SeadonkeyLoveI definitely feel you, I go gaga over my Mountain Passes and my Rivots became the perfect military boot after a few modifications (except the fact that they don't have a goodyear welt, but the Marine Corps one does for some odd reason).
