What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I tested the Fastpack Mid WP on long, wet spring hikes, and the comfort surprised me right away. The DREAM midsole keeps things plush without feeling sloppy, and the DRYVENT membrane held up through puddles and muddy sections. The 5mm lugs grip really well on slick surfaces, and the wider platform adds a stable feel on uneven ground."We count on the Fastpack Mid WP from The North Face when we want comfort, cushioning, and waterproof protection in one lightweight package.
