CHRONO LOW GTX®

Wore these on a wet, rocky trail last weekend and the grip on slick granite genuinely surprised me. The low cut keeps them light enough for fast day hikes, and sizing ran true to my usual.

These handled a wet, rocky trail way better than I expected — the GTX lining kept my feet bone dry through two stream crossings. Ankle support is solid without feeling stiff, and they were comfortable right out of the box on a 9-mile hike.

The waterproof GTX lining handled a wet morning trail without soaking through, which is exactly what I needed. Sizing runs a touch narrow for my wide feet, but a thinner sock fixed it.
