Satisfied with the Fit
Toes Too Roomy
Too Much Volume
In trying on, it is a little long and a little narrow. I think I'm gonna try a kilte on these. The last isn't very shapely. Pretty rectangular

The construction is fine.
Sole & heel
Traction
Comfort
It is very light and has very good traction. But it also doesn't have any support.
Final thoughts
Other
I don't believe these are made to the same standards to the main line RM as they're a smu for a store. I won't wear these on a serious hike. I'll just wear them around town. They're fine and I'm happy for the price I paid. Had I paid $700-800 or whatever new RM'S cost, I'd be disappointed.
