Haglofs Duality AT1 GT review

Who should buy the Haglofs Duality AT1 GT

When it comes to innovation, the Duality AT1 GT can be considered in a league of its own. Purchase it if:

• You're curious to experience the difference between the boot's two switchable midsoles.
• Trail boots that can fence out chilly winds and cold rain showers are what you need.
• Knit hiking boots fascinate you, especially those made with sustainable materials.

Who should NOT buy it

With no negative feedback concerning on and off, the Danner Mountain 600 is a great alternative to the Haglofs Duality AT1 GT. Also, trade the featured boot for the Lowa Renegade GTX Mid if you need a waterproof hiker with better ventilation.

Double the fun in every box

The Haglofs Duality AT1 GT comes with two color-coded interchangeable midsoles: green and red. The green one doubles down on underfoot support and cushioning, giving the shoe an edge for backpacking trips. The red midsole, on the other hand, is meant for easier hikes, given that it's softer and lighter.

Incredible comfort in the Duality AT1 GT

Many reviewers are in love with the Haglofs Duality AT1 GT for its through-the-roof comfiness, with one saying that it feels "like walking on clouds." A vlogger among them links this plushness mainly to the boot's sock-like fit, calling the hiker "supremely comfortable."

Sticks to whatever

"I didn't slip on slimy rocks," says one of the adventurers who only have praises for the shoe's grippy outsole. Another hiking enthusiast says that it works great on roads as well, whether wet or dry.

The lightweight Haglofs Duality AT1 GT

Despite being 590 g a piece, the Haglofs Duality AT1 GT is lightweight for several hikers. One of them says that it's "light enough to prevent fatigue."

A struggle to put on

The Duality AT1 GT is a "faff to get on and off," says someone who dislikes the boot's sock-like collar. One other hiker shares the same sentiment, saying, "maybe a really narrow leg might go in."

Locks out moisture

There are those who are floored by the waterproofing of the Duality AT1 GT. One of them says that the featured kick is "more than a match" for light to heavy rains, snow, deep puddles, and streams.

Won't let your feet freeze

According to a verified purchaser, the Haglofs Duality AT1 GT is "super nice and warm down to -9°C." Note that the boot doesn't have any insulating components.

But it might not be for summer use

Among the negative reports about the Duality AT1 GT is its lack of breathability. "My feet just roasted in them," complained one trail-goer. It's a "real deal breaker," says the same hiker. 

Duality AT1 GT: A sustainable looker

Quite a number of hikers adore the beauty of the Haglofs Duality AT1 GT. They also appreciate the featured boot for having more than one component made with recycled materials.
