Built for steep terrain and demanding conditions, the Hoffman Summit is a versatile mid-height boot designed for early season hunts, backpacking, and light-duty work. It offers the ideal balance of support, flexibility, and comfort when precision footing matters most.
The Summit features a durable leather upper paired with a protective rubber rand to guard against abrasion in rugged environments. A 5.5mm nylon midsole provides excellent lateral support while still allowing the flex needed for climbing and navigating uneven terrain.
Underfoot, the Vibram® Dolent outsole delivers long-lasting performance with an alpine tread design that offers strong edging stability and a self-cleaning profile for consistent traction. Inside, the dual-density PU cushioned insole enhances comfort and reduces fatigue, while the Sympatex® waterproof membrane keeps your feet dry without sacrificing breathability.
Lightweight and responsive, the Summit is an excellent choice when you need performance without the stiffness of a full mountaineering boot.

I bought them to do a 2 week guiding trip in the Unitas of Utah and they performed awesome. Prior I was worried about my sore foot pad and toes from my high arches. I nearly canceled but in a last ditch effort I got my order processed and took Sheep Feet out for my first trip and my feet felt wonderful. I was blown away and told everyone every day that SHEEP FEET will make all the difference in the world. Love em.
Puts these inserts into my Crispi boots for a 7 day backcountry Wyoming elk hunt and loved them. my feet never had any issues and put on over 50 miles that week.
I work construction and I stand on concrete for 10 hours a day. I wear great boots and my feet were always aching after work. I put the insoles in my boots and after a couple days of breaking them in my feet aren’t nearly as tired after a long days of work. Definitely recommend them to coworkers
I have worn them for 7 weeks now between archery elk season and currently in deer season now, both in eastern Oregon. On average, I have put on 5 miles per day, 10 on some bigger days, in fairly rough country and some trail hiking while wearing a 15lb ish pack give or take. I am a bigger guy weighing 260lbs, 5’11” and in rather good shape for my size. I only give three stars due to my foot fatigue is still an issue along with some current foot pain. I probably should have went with the cushioned soles vs the standard thickness. I wear them in my Crispi Summit II. This is my 5th style of boot from Crispi and so far happy with this style. Not sure the thicker sole would fit properly with the particular boot style, I would like to try it though. Other than that, I want to give them more miles and maybe let my feet heel up post hunting season. I do like them so far and I have nothing but good things to say about the company, great folks to work with and very timely on getting my insoles to me. Hope to leave another review after I get some more miles on them.

I can't say enough for these shoes! I've done stalks with an"extra" pair of socks, and they work. But these, with the felt, give you just enough protection that you can feel where you are put your foot, and still not feel the sharpness of the step. I harvested a buck this year (3x4) with the Silent Strikes, and know absolutely no person affiliated with this company. (plug to Gritty) You spend a shizton on your hunting. We all do! When it comes to closing the deal... these do it!

We are sorry the bottle arrived broken — that’s not how it should have shown up. We’ll reach out to you directly and get this taken care of.
My feet feel in heaven! I’m on a spot and stalk bear hunt so we’re putting on a lot of miles and they are great.
I cannot say enough good things about this product! I have Lowa Renegade boots that I’ve used for two seasons now, except this year I used the Sheepfeet inserts they custom made via the phone app scan. Last season, my feet were THROBBING basically all day. This year, ZERO of that. I cannot believe how much of a difference they made. We walked similar mileage too, around 130 miles over couple weeks. 10/10 star recommend. Expensive, but worth every penny!
This was my 2nd set of inserts. My feet was killing in my work boots. Since I had a pair in my hunting boots that feel great. Only took 3 days of wearing them in my work boots and my feet was feeling great.
Purchased the full length insoles with the extra padding because the new boots I have felt slightly too loose than I liked and I wanted to fill that extra space to keep them tight on my feet. They accomplished that. This is my fourth pair of SheepFeet and I just can’t get myself to wear boots without them.
I have bad plantar fasciitis and these custom insoles help so much. I just got back from a several day high country hunt and sheep feet are life savers for sore feet.
Awesome socks! I love the big letters. It makes it easy to know which foot they go on early in the morning 😂 both the light and mid weight are comfortable on long day. I haven’t tried the sneaky shoes yet. The bulls are just getting going.
The process was straightforward: an easy foot scan, followed by a short wait for the finished orthotics. When they arrived, the fit was precise—no slipping, no hot spots, and easy to fit to my boots and work shoes.
Store owner replied:
We’re sorry to hear the comfort hasn’t been what you were hoping for. Since one foot feels better than the other, there may be an adjustment we can make to get the fit more balanced and comfortable.
We offer free adjustments on our custom orthotics for exactly this reason. Please reach out to us at support@sheepfeetoutdoors.com and we’d be happy to work with you to get them fitting better.
Currently working great on a moose hunt in ak. Dry out super fast and very comfortable
I order these in hopes that it would save my heels from a week long elk hunt. After putting in the insoles, I could feel an immediate difference. I hiked in them for several weeks before the elk hunt started. During the elk hunt, I didn't get a single blister after putting on over fifty miles in rugged terrain, we were able to kill the bull. Elk, that we were after and haul It out. No blisters or sore spots, which was amazing! Couldn't be more satisfied. My only regret was that I did not put these in my boots when I first bought the boots!
Still can only do around 4 miles before my feet really start hurting. I’m the guy that has the metatarsal issues. With the sheep feet, it seems like I’m now walking on my arches, and they get tender after around four miles too. I elk hunt every day of archery season, so I need my feet to not hold me back. I thought for $300, I’d get better results. I need a solution to this problem.
Store owner replied:
Kevin, we understand the frustration. When we spoke in August, we recommended getting your SheepFeet back so we could make an adjustment based on the issues you were experiencing, but with hunting season approaching you understandably didn’t have time to be without them.
That option is still available, and we’d be happy to make the adjustment and address the arch tenderness you’re experiencing as well. Reach out when you’re ready and we’ll get you taken care of.
