Hikers, these Columbia Escape Thrive shoes are built to handle whatever the trail throws at you! The Outdry Superior waterproofing is seriously impressive - it uses an impenetrable membrane with bonded construction that seals water out completely, even in moderate to heavy rain or snow. The Navic Fit system provides natural midfoot lockdown that keeps your heel secure and gives you enhanced stability on uneven terrain. Underfoot, the Omni-Max Plus system features a Techlite+ midsole that cradles your heel for optimal balance, while deflection domes in the forefoot and heel absorb impact to reduce stress on your feet. The Adapt Trax outsole delivers advanced traction in wet or slippery conditions, with a tread pattern specifically designed for the best grip over challenging terrain. Additional features include a protective mixed material upper, no-sew toe cap and heel cradle for added stability, and overall durable construction that can handle regular trail use. Whether you're dealing with muddy paths, rocky sections, or wet conditions, these Columbia hiking shoes provide the waterproof protection, comfort, and traction you need for confident hiking. Your feet will stay dry and comfortable mile after mile!
