Salewa Alp Trainer 2 Mid GTX Hiking Boot - Women's Java blue/Fluo Coral, 6.0

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I wore the Alp Trainer 2 Mid GTX Hiking Boot on a multi-day alpine route with a mix of trail, scree, and some light technical terrain, and they performed across all of it without complaint. The 3F System gave me real ankle support on the loose stuff, and the Climbing Lacing let me dial in a precise fit on the technical sections where sloppy footwork isn't an option.""The alpine doesn't offer a single kind of terrain, it offers everything at once. Loose scree gives way to wet rock, muddy switchbacks open into exposed ridgelines, and the conditions that greet you at the top rarely match what you started in at the trailhead. The Alp Trainer 2 Mid GTX Hiking Boot from SALEWA was built to handle that full range, a progressive mid-cut boot engineered in the Dolomites and at home anywhere the mountain takes you. The GORE-TEX Extended Comfort lining keeps feet dry and breathable across variable conditions, while a generous front rubber rand adds protection against rock and scree on the approach. The proprietary 3F System uses a steel cable to deliver firm ankle support and side stability without sacrificing the freedom of movement that long days on trail demand, and the Flex Collar increases rear ankle range of motion to keep descents comfortable and controlled. Underfoot, the Vibram Alpine Hiking outsole brings dedicated climbing, traction, and braking zones to a wide range of mountain terrain, excelling in both wet and muddy conditions with an aggressive lug pattern exclusive to SALEWA. The customizable MFF+ footbed with interchangeable layers lets you fine-tune volume and fit to your foot, so the boot feels dialed from the first step to the last."
