The North Face Dhaulagiri GTX Backpacking Boot - Men's

You won't be climbing any 8,000-meter peaks in The North Face Men's Dhaulagiri GTX Backpacking Boots. But you could carry a 60-pound backpack for several miles while wearing these supportive, rugged, waterproof hiking boots. The North Face used X-Frame technology in these boots TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) Xs embrace the medial and lateral sides of the ankle to prevent rolling. PU midsoles and EVA heel inserts absorb the shock from your feet hitting the ground with a full load on your back. Full-length TPU shanks between the mid- and outsoles protect your feet from rocks yet aren't rigid and unresponsive. The Gore-Tex membranes keep your feet dry in wet weather or when crossing shallow streams.
