Columbia Escape Thrive Titanium Mid Outdry Hiking Shoe - Women's Black/Marine Light, 6.5

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I’ve worn these on long, muddy trails and they handled everything. The waterproofing really works, and they feel light and stable on uneven ground. The cushioning is great for long days, but they’re not bulky at all—super comfortable right out of the box.""Designed for hikers who don’t slow down when the weather turns, the Escape Thrive Titanium Mid OutDry Hiking Shoe combines Columbia’s most advanced technologies for peak performance and protection. The OutDry™ waterproof-breathable membrane seals out moisture while venting heat, keeping feet dry and comfortable through miles of mixed terrain. The Omni-MAX™ system works underfoot to deliver adaptive cushioning, improved stability, and energetic rebound, while the Techlite+™ midsole keeps every stride light, responsive, and well-cushioned. A no-sew upper with a toe cap and heel cradle adds durability without extra weight, and the Navic Fit™ lacing system locks the heel in place for precision control on technical ground. Finished with Columbia’s Adapt Trax™ outsole, the Escape Thrive Titanium grips confidently across slick roots, wet rock, and loose gravel. Built with the support of a mid-height collar and weighing just over 10 ounces per shoe, it’s an agile waterproof hiker ready for long miles, unpredictable weather, and every trail in between."
