They also feature a redesigned lug pattern with additional lugs for improved traction over sludgy terrain.

We haven’t been able to fully test this update’s durability compared to previous models, but they do seem to be more bomb-proof than before. It also increases the shoe’s durability, as it eliminates potential failure points along the seams. It is now entirely stitch-free with no-sew TPU overlays, giving it a sleek and streamlined look and feel. The upper has evolved a bit in this new iteration.

It boasts the most room in any toebox you’re likely to find, and the foot-shaped last gives it an organic feel, allowing your toes to splay out naturally while hiking long miles.
