REI Description: The light and sleek Ahnu Elkridge Mid eVent(TM) hiking boots provide breathable, waterproof protection in a mid-height cut for stability and comfort on day hikes and weekend jaunts.

Highly breathable eVent waterproof membranes keep the elements out while setting a high standard for comfort by allowing perspiration to dissipate and vent quickly. Nylon linings wick moisture away from feet. Dual-density EVA midsoles provide shock absorption and cushioning comfort underfoot; EVA plugs work with external struts to stabilize heels for enhanced performance. Thermoplastic urethane arch shanks and forefoot plates supply support and torsional rigidity, and help prevent stone bruising. Nonmarking rubber outsoles on the Ahnu Elkridge Mid eVent hiking boots feature multidirectional lugs for great traction on various terrain.

Backcountry Description: The typical problem with a boots that feature a waterproof breathable membrane is that, when hiking, most folks' toes can crank out more moisture than can pass through the membrane. Built with an ultra-breathable yet waterproof eVent membrane, the Ahnu Elkridge Mid WP Hiking Boot will protect your foot from rain, snow, and mud without making you feel like your toes are drowning in sweat.
