Merrell Tempo Sol Mid WP Hiking Boot - Men's Mountain, 12.0

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I wore the Tempo Sol Mid WP on a mixed day that started with a wet morning hike and ended with a few miles of walking around town, and it handled both without complaint. The waterproof membrane kept my feet dry through some soggy sections early on, and the EVA midsole stayed comfortable enough that I forgot I had been on my feet for hours.""Some days start on a muddy trail and end at a picnic table with a cold drink, and the Merrell Tempo Sol Mid WP Hiking Boot is exactly the kind of footwear that makes that transition seamless. The waterproof suede leather and breathable mesh upper keeps the elements out without trapping heat, so your feet stay in a comfortable middle ground no matter what the day throws at you. A padded collar and traditional lace closure dial in the fit so the boot feels like it was made for your foot from the first step. The lightweight EVA midsole keeps the overall package nimble underfoot, which matters when you are covering miles on varied terrain at a relaxed pace. Merrell built in Cleansport NXT odor control and leaned into sustainability with recycled mesh lining and a 50% recycled footbed, so the boot works hard without leaving much of a footprint behind. With a 10mm drop and a 34mm stack height, the geometry sits right in that sweet spot between cushion and trail feel."
