I get around alright in a pair of Salomon Speedcross 3s. Pretty picky about my footwear -- comfort is king -- so I will usually run a pair of Salewa Mountain Trainer Mid GTX as my main boot for the ankle support but have no trouble bush bashing in the Salomons, they are nimble, quick drying and comfortable. Sometimes I will carry them if I'm doing a few river crossings too, and they are easy to slip on and off for around camp. Great all round shoe. You will go through them pretty quick though. I would buy another pair based on the use I've got out them, but they won't get half as many miles as a comparable pair of boots in my experience. Then again you can usually get them for half as much.
