Agile yet rugged and well-known for needing minimal break-in time, the men's AKU Alterra II GTX hiking boots are designed for enhanced comfort and stride performance over mixed terrain.
- GORE-TEX waterproof/breathable membranes let feet breathe while protecting them from wet weather, keeping them dry and comfortable
- Elica Fit technology allows your feet to move through their natural range of motion, providing enhanced comfort and reduced fatigue and foot strain
- Fit follows the anatomic shape of the sole of your foot, allowing normal heel and forefoot positioning for comfort and control
- Gusseted tongues keep out trail debris and use soft materials to provide a smooth transition across your insteps for all-day comfort
- Collars offer a gaiterlike cuff for a snug fit that keeps pebbles, debris and drizzle out
- Integrated rubber toe caps provide durable protection from roots and rocks
- Engineered eyelets have tiny rotating pulleys that allow quick adjustments and equalize pressure from top to toe with a single pull
- IMS3 chassis combined with polyurethane exoskeletons and midsoles support your feet, help control flex, reduce ankle strain, enhance stability and protect from rough terrain
- IMS custom-fit footbeds provide shock-absorption and comfort
- Vibram® rubber outsoles supply excellent grip and traction for stability underfoot in both wet and dry conditions
