Garmont Syncro Plus GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

Whether the coming season calls for walking New Zealand's Milford Track or backpacking in the North Cascades, the Garmont Men's Synchro Plus GTX Hiking Boot is a worthy candidate for keeping your feet dry and comfortable in wet places such as these. Underneath the thick 2.2mm top grain leather upper a waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX lining provides a second layer of protection for your deserving feet. To surround your feet in nothing but the most advanced comfort Garmont employs their series of Anatomically Directed Design features. A lateral tongue post places more padding along the outside edge of the tongue, an innovation that lessens tongue drift and results in a better seal at the top of the boot to keep debris out. Also, the padding that surrounds the knobby inside and outside ankle bones is not placed at the exact same elevation as is common on other hiking boots. Instead each heel pad is placed independently of the other to match the precise location of each bone. For positive traction on muddy trails, scree slopes, and lingering snowfields, a Vibram Ground Control outsole grips hard or soft surfaces, whether ascending, descending, or traversing. A polyurethane midsole offers lightweight, durable comfort, and the FrameFlex-Mid insole provides a smooth, rounded flex that does not require break-in.
