Ridgeway Mesh Low - Heren

The aggressive outsole grabbed loose gravel confidently on my morning hike, and the toe guard has already saved me from a few sharp rocks. For a mesh shoe, the cushioning from that embedded foam is surprisingly solid without feeling bulky.

The mesh upper actually breathes on long hikes, and my feet stayed cool even in July heat. The toe guard has already saved me twice on rocky scrambles, though the outsole is so aggressive it clicks loudly on pavement.

Wore these straight out of the box for a 6-mile rocky loop and my feet stayed dry the whole time thanks to that mesh upper. The toe guard already saved me twice on root stubs, and the outsole grips wet granite way better than my old pair.
