Conditions on the trail can be unpredictable. Snow Peak's Mountain Trek hikers are made to handle whatever they encounter. A mix of hiking boots and trail shoes, they have a mid-cut silhouette, with an upper that mixes a rugged Cordura base with leather reinforcements and nylon straps running to the cord laces for a lock-down fit. At the base is a Vibram 1087C outsole with deep grooves for traction in muddy conditions.
