Anyone who loves the Highlander should pick up a couple extra pairs as they are being discontinued, at least in the States. Montrail had talked about introducing a replacement to the Highlander, the Zulander, for a while, but that's a no go, too.

The Climber's Shop in Ambleside has a few pairs left for 40 quid (along with a few Innov8 290s for the same price). Picked some up today.
just emailed Montrail to see if I can shed some light on the Highlander demise....
Direct from Montrail:-
Hello Phil,
Thanks for your interest in Montrail and your inquiry regarding the Highlander.
The Highlander style has been discontinued. While we no longer have a shoe designed specificly for Fell running there is a new style that will come out for spring ’09 called the Mountain Masochist that would be a good substitute to replace the Highlander with. The Mountain Masochist will be avialable in a style with or without Gore Tex.
Thanks for your interest in Montrail.
Best Regards,
Joe Web

Good, the only pair of these I had chewed my toes and were really unstable on ankles: as soon as they had a bit of a lean on them they suddenly snap off balance and make you crash.
