Gone are the days of choosing between a heavy-yet-supportive hiking boot and a light-but-flimsy trail running shoe. The Rush Mid GTX Hiking Shoe borrows technology from its trail running sibling, but adds a touch of ankle coverage for increased support without sustaining a major weight penalty. The Gore-Tex lining provides confidence to venture off the beaten-path without worrying about getting your socks wet. The breathable synthetic upper quickly dumps excess heat when you're working hard on your way to the summit. Scarpa's Free-Dome outsole implements rocker to enhance stability on uneven surfaces which generates a nimble feel.
