Salewa Puez 2 Knit PTX Shoe - Women's Black/Black, 9.0

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I wore the Puez 2 Knit Powertex on a rugged hut-to-hut trek. They're crazy comfortable right out of the box and the waterproof knit upper breathes better than anything else I’ve used on multi-day hikes.""We need a shoe that feels just as good scrambling through mountain passes as it does navigating slick cobblestones—and that’s why we love the Women's Puez 2 Knit Powertex Shoe. Salewa designed this boot with a knit upper reinforced for durability and paired it with a circular-manufacturing midsole made from Alpine Hemp and recycled materials—giving us high-performance comfort while shrinking environmental impact. The Powertex membrane keeps our feet dry during creek crossings and rainy days, while the Pomoca Alpine Trekker outsole grips tenaciously over wet roots, rock slabs, and loose scree. Thanks to the Edging Plate II built into the sole, we get flex where we need it and stiffness where it counts for stable hiking. The combination of technical fit, eco-conscious construction, and instant comfort makes the Puez 2 a standout for trail adventurers and urban explorers alike."
