The Michelin Wander Hiker outsole, made of Outdoor Compound, renders grip on varied surfaces. Through its aggressive lug structures, it can bite into virtually all types of terrain. A wider contact area also helps stabilize ground footing.
Midsole
Featuring the brand-patented Gumflate midsole, the Salewa Wander Hiker GTX grants a comfortable and supportive ride. It adapts to the ground and absorbs impacts. Likewise, it aids in stabilizing the foot for a safer stride.
The lightweight Ortholite insole helps keep the in-shoe environment dry and cool through its moisture management and breathability. Additionally, it offers long-lasting cushioning.
Upper
The 1.6 mm nubuck leather backed by a Gore-Tex Extended Comfort laminate protects the foot against trail debris and water encounters. It also makes the upper breathable. A rubber reinforcement is added to the heel and toe for protection.
The Flex Collar gives the cuff of the Wander Hiker GTX a curved shape which helps increase the ankle’s range of motion. This design helps the foot, especially on descents. The 3F system connects the instep area to the sole and heel for stability and foot control.
