Salomon Genesis Mid GTX Hiking Boot - Men's Olive Night/Peat/Eucalyptus, US 9.5/UK

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wore the Genesis Mid GTX Hiking Boot through a wet, muddy multi day trip and the GORE-TEX kept my feet completely dry the whole way.

The optiFOAM cushioning made long descents feel a lot easier on my legs than I expected from a boot this light."Long days on changing terrain call for a boot that doesn't slow you down, and the Salomon Genesis Mid GTX Hiking Boot is built with exactly that kind of distance in mind.

We've worn these through soaked trailheads and rocky switchbacks alike, watching the mid height cuff offer just enough support without ever feeling stiff or heavy underfoot.

What carries the Genesis Mid GTX Hiking Boot through those long days is the combination of optiFOAM cushioning and activeCHASSIS support working together underfoot, keeping legs fresher mile after mile.

The Contagrip outsole's two part lug pattern and raised tread bite into loose dirt and wet rock with equal confidence, while the ripstop upper dries quickly once the trail clears up.
