A nubuck leather version of the popular Z-8 GTX design, this is a higher shafted, rugged, multi-function boot that’s designed for demanding missions while carrying large packs over varied terrain. It combines the walking comfort of a hiking boot with the support and protection of a hard duty, backpacking boot. Our injected DuraPU midsole provides support and the extra-stable PU MONOWRAP construction provides instep protection against rope abrasion while rappelling. Durably waterproof/breathable.
