An all weather favorite for day hikes & light overnighters. Includes a Gore-Tex® lining.

For those who want a lightweight athletic fit but don't trust their ankles on rock-strewn paths the Garmont Men's Flash XCR Hiking Shoe offers a mid-ankle cut and trustworthy Vibram® sole. A seam taped Gore-Tex® XCR® lining underneath the suede and mesh upper protects your feet from water seepage leaving your feet dry and comfortable. Barely over a pound the Garmont Flash XCR Hiking Shoe relies on the integrated G3+ Spine structure to provide stability and cushioning. Immediately above the outsole a thermal plastic urethane grid offers a stable platform for hiking surfaces that are abruptly uneven yet also encourages easy forefoot flex. Then to soften the ride a sheet of lightweight polyurethane is sandwiched between this grid and theVibram® outsole. A description of the Garmont Flash XCR Hiking Shoe for men is not complete without mentioning Garmont's Anatomically Directed Design® elements a series of innovative construction modifications that improve comfort. An example is the lateral tongue post. This alteration from traditional shoe construction places extra cushioning on the lateral (outside) portion of the tongue thus reducing the tendency for the tongue to drift and also providing a better closure at the cuff to keep debris out.
