Our read

A do-everything waterproof trail cruiser for zero-drop devotees who want cushion for long days out; the GTX and 334 g weight make it a protector, not a racer.

Ride

Balanced, forgiving underfoot with a zero-drop geometry and enough cushion to stay comfortable over long distances while retaining some ground feel. The GORE-TEX upper adds weight and warmth.

Fit

Roomy foot-shaped toe box with a comparatively snug midfoot and heel, so some runners may need lace adjustments to lock it down. Offered in standard width only despite the wide forefoot.

Best for

Runners and hikers who want a waterproof, high-cushion zero-drop shoe for wet, long days on mixed and technical trails.

Avoid if

You want a light, fast shoe, need a heel-to-toe drop, or run in hot conditions where the waterproof upper traps heat.
