"A rugged, durable, and comfortable all-around hiker, the Zamberlan 996 Vioz GTX WL Hiking Boots for Men handles backpacking in rugged, steep backcountry. A premium Italian design, the 996 Vioz GTX starts with a full grain leather upper with Hydrobloc treatments for superior water resistance and long lasting durability. GORE-TEX Performance Comfort membranes inside provide guaranteed 100% waterproof/breathable protection. Microtex moisture-wicking nylon linings around the collars help control excess moisture around the ankle. Built around a ZWL Wide Fit last, this boot mimics the performance fit of a boot built on Zamberlan's popular ZBPK Performance Fit last with even more room in the forefoot for wider feet. 4mm Flex polyethylene insoles and low density polyurethane wedge midsoles support and cushion feet over changing terrain, while the Zamberlan Flex System allows the uppers to break forward without compromising lateral support around the ankles. Rugged Vibram 3D outsoles feature wide lugs, an undercut heel and rockered profile to provide excellent grip, superb downhill braking, and an energy producing, rock-forward motion. Average height: 6"". Average weight per pair: 3.14 lbs. Imported.Manufacturer style #: 996DGM-W.
