Dhaulagiri approach boots
Imagine buttermilk, chocolate chip, and blueberry pancakes all in one glorious stack. Now think of the equivalent in a backpacking boot and you’ll get The North Face Dhaulagiri II GTX Boot. The North Face stacked several different layers of footwear technology to give you a smooth and sturdy platform for heavy hauls over long distances. For the perfect topping, they put in a waterproof breathable Gore-Tex membrane so you can splash and thrash your way through the wild landscape.
Features
Northotic footbed with Poron forefoot and heel inserts cushion your foot with every step
Heel Cradle technology incorporates a molded EVA X-2 insert into a dual-density polyurethane midsole for enhanced shock protection
Full-length TPU perforated shank is sturdy as your feet travel the uneven terrain, and it remains lightweight and flexible for killer mobility
Vibram Duratek rubber outsole is the last tasty layer that holds you to the earth with its cleverly designed self-cleaning lugs and heel brake
