The great outdoors needs great footwear. Engineered for trail/cross-country walking (with sport-utility looks suited to city streets too), our Neo-D-Hyker has been reworked for a cleaner aesthetic and enhanced perfomance in extreme conditions. The fully waterproof build keeps you dry in heavy rain/wet snow. With 3M Thinsulate insulation so feet stay warm when it´s sub-zero and debuting our grippiest ever outsoles for safer walking on uneven, steep or slippery surfaces. Rubber mudguards and bellows tongues (designed to stop water/debris entering) add extra protection. Here in a mix of water-repellant leather and suede, these combine sneaker-like lightness, flexibility, comfort, with the stability and security of walking shoes. Adjustable padded uppers and anatomically contoured footbeds provide support over long distances.
