Why We Love the Merrell Rogue Hiker Mid GTX Boot

The Merrell Rogue Hiker Mid GTX Boot is an exceptional backpacking boot that combines lightweight design with superior performance. This boot is based on the Agility Peak trail running shoe and features Float Pro Foam for a comfortable and lightweight hiking experience, especially when traveling with a light pack. The use of ballistic mesh uppers not only makes the boot lighter but also provides adequate support, while the rock plate ensures additional stability on rugged terrains. With the added benefit of GORE-TEX waterproofing and mid-cut ankle collars, our feet stay dry and happy even in wet and muddy conditions. The Vibram Megagrip outsoles with 5mm lugs deliver exceptional traction on dirt, mud, snow, and scree, guaranteeing a secure footing during extended hikes or weekend backpacking trips.
