"Within minutes of opening the box, my new Mackalls were on the trail for 10K. Perfect fit - Ghillie lacing is superior. The grey color is also perfect, not too dark and concealing ticks. Not too light collecting stains. Good traction, even on slippery wet wood."
"Wanted an off-road running shoe and am very impressed. Fit comfortably the first day, the quality is obvious and they look great. It’s also quickly became my favorite camping shoe with the protection of recycled plastics and 4x4-like grip hiking up steep hills. Most expensive pair of shoes that I own but would buy them again in a heartbeat. Didn’t think I was going to be rucking but now I weight up while walking the dog."
"I bought these to primarily be a shoe for HIIT / tactical athelete workouts on concrete, grass, and gravel. Coming from barefoot shoes, I needed something with more cushion, grip, and versatility. While I think my feet are the problem and I will need something else long-term, these shoes hit the mark for fit, finish, and utility. They are stable under a barbell (225lbs) and comfortable under long farmers carries (120lbs/200m). They are responsive enough to get the job done for sprints and slow jogs. Even though the ride is stiff for those uses, the soles have a great amount of flexibility"
"Its a well made shoe for sure. The fit is great. The weird heel support pads make my foot move up and down though and my socks get pulled down. I dont think that I'll be putting many miles on in these. It seems like i would get hot spots on my Achilles tendon. Comfortable for wearing around the house though."
"Initial impression was that the sole would be too soft for the desert terrain that I hike in, but they seem durable after the initial 10 miles, we’ll see how long they last. Sizing is a little big, but nothing a thick pair of socks won’t cure. Lots of ventilation though, which is one of the reasons why I bought them."
"Phenomenal support for bashing around with my long range rucker and 2 Springer Spaniels. These run a trace bit large so going with a 1/2 size smaller may be preferable if you're continuously on side slopes and rocky routes. This is my second pair and I am glad I made that decision. High quality product to brag about!"
"Used theses shoes as my underway shoes when I was stationed on a submarine. I could stand in them for 8 hours and keep wearing them for 8 more as I went about my day. They were great for working, exercise, and hiking when I was home. They were comfortable and breathable. Dried quickly when wet and easy to clean out if they became full of fine dirt or sand."
"I’m a high production painter, which means running around job sites full speed, climbing ladders, walking on roofs and scaffolding. These are the only shoes that I have found that give my feet the traction and stability that is needed to meet these high demands. They are light enough to work all day in and sturdy enough as to not rip or tear. In the evening time? That’s right, I’m lifting weights with these bad boys on. Running through the woods? No problem. Great company that produces an awesome shoe! Keep up the good work, you guys exude excellence!"
"The Mackall is ab awesome shoe. I buy GoRuck shoes because they offer the best arch support ever and are the highest quality shoes I have ever owned. I bought them to replace the discontinued Rough Runners so they took some getting used to but I love them."
"What a difference in my Ruck w the design of these shoes! 50lb pack for 35minutes and feet felt great! Normally wear a 12 so had to downsize to 11. 5"
