When we are scrambling over rocks, going off the beaten path, and hiking in less-than-optimal weather, no ordinary hiking shoes are going to cut it. The Salomon Elixir Activ Mid GTX Boot is a mid-height waterproof boot ready for off-trail adventures and fire road walks. This boot features a durable upper that breathes well and has rock protection to keep us protected on the trails. A GORE-TEX waterproof membrane keeps our feet dry while remaining breathable enough to go on long hikes in, and the 6-inch height of the boot adds ankle stabilization and protection. The padded tongue and collar add extra comfort and provide a snug fit, while the 5mm lugs and reverse camber-shaped sole outsole down massive amounts of traction and provide a smoother stride.
