What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've worn the Hedgehog GORE-TEX on rocky desert trails and muddy forest hikes-it handles both really well. The waterproofing holds up in wet conditions, and the Vibram outsole gives solid grip even on slick surfaces. It's a go-to for everyday hiking and weekend exploring." Tried and trusted, The North Face Hedgehog GORE-TEX Hiking Shoe is built to deliver confidence and comfort on rugged terrain. With a tough mesh and leather upper backed by a GORE-TEX 3L waterproof membrane, it shields our feet from water, debris, and unpredictable conditions-making it a favorite for everything from quick weekend hikes to all-day trail missions. A molded EVA midsole and TPU heel cradle provide stable cushioning, while a supportive midfoot shank adds structure for steep ascents and rocky traverses. Underfoot, the Vibram(R) XS Trek outsole grips through loose dirt, wet rock, and everything in between. Durable, waterproof, and trail-tested, the Hedgehog is ready to go the distance-wherever the trail leads.
