Just like your favorite blue videogame character, The North Face Men's Hedgehog Fastpack Mid GTX Hiking Boots force you to be faster. The full grain leather upper is coated in PU for durability and flexibility, which is perfect for long hikes and mountain excursions. If it starts to rain or snow, Gore-Tex technology protects a waterproof shield. These boots are crafted with a lace closure, TPU cradle footbed, EVA midsole, and Vibram rubber sole. So no matter how long you're hiking with friends, these boots get you to the destination faster than your friends, which means you get first dibs on drinks.
