What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I like how confident the Fastpack II Mid WP feels on mixed trails. The DRYVENT membrane keeps feet dry, and the padded ankle and collar make it comfortable right out of the box.

The lightweight EVA midsole cushions each stride, and the SURFACE CTRL outsole-made with recycled rubber-adds reliable traction on dirt, gravel, and slick terrain.
