Danner Vital 8 Inch Boot Weather changes, terrain varies, and sometimes you find yourself traveling further afield than planned - the Vital is designed for the unknown and the unexpected. Light, fast, aggressive, yet stealthy. Let your feet help you disappear into your environment. A specialized process is used to impregnate split leather with polyurethane to create an exceptionally durable and abrasion resistant leather. Danner paired the leather with 900 denier polyester to create a hard-wearing upper. 100% waterproof barrier allows moisture to escape without letting water in, keeping your feet dry and comfortable all day long. Reengineered ghilles across the forefoot for a secure, yet quiet fit, and locking speed hooks for quick lacing. The polyurethane footbed provides superior shock absorption with an additional layer of open cell construction for improved air circulation. Danner® Plyolite midsole offers lightweight comfort and shock absorption. Multi-directional lugs provide grip on moss, rock and slick surfaces. Features a mesh liner layered over a waterproof membrane on the tongue to help regulate both moisture and temperature where it has the largest impact, on the top of your foot. A patterning of multi-density foam eliminates hot spots and pinch points for a more comfortable upper. This boot is built on Danner's DT4 last. This last provides an athletic fit with a tighter heel pocket and a wider toe box. The sleek, streamlined last is excellent for on or off trail hiking.
