Deep Dive
Why We Like The Vasque St Elias FG GTX Hiking Boot
Instead of purchasing additional moleskin patches for your hike on the PCT, opt for a boot that offers out-of-the-box comfort like the Vasque St Elias FG GTX Hiking Boot. Whether you're traversing a moss-covered forest or the arid terrain of the Anza Borrego Desert, this boot provides All-Terrain Compound in the midsole which delivers exceptional comfort with its foam pods and synthetic shank – enabling you to go from a 15-mile day to a 20-mile day. Even if it starts raining on your 18th mile, the GORE-TEX membrane ensures your feet remain dry. Furthermore, if you encounter any shallow water while puddle jumping or crossing early-summer melting snow, the over-the-ankle cuff will offer the necessary protection.
