"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I’ve been wearing the Alpine 83 Recraft MXD for travel and casual hikes—super stable, and I really dig the throwback look. The leather upper feels premium, and all the recycled components make it an easy win for everyday use.""Inspired by classic alpine design and rebuilt with modern materials, the Alpine 83 Recraft MXD Sneaker delivers everyday versatility with a nod to vintage mountain style. Whether we’re heading out for a city walk, trail stroll, or airport dash, this sneaker keeps us grounded in comfort and supported with every step. Its full grain and suede leather upper gives a heritage feel, while the recycled mesh lining and footbed reflect Merrell’s sustainable focus. A rubber midsole absorbs shock, and a lightweight EVA foam layer keeps things cushy underfoot. Dual heel loops and metal D-rings finish off the build with both function and style."
