The Salomon Quest 5 GORE-TEX is a supportive, above-ankle hiking boot with a waterproof GORE-TEX lining, 4D Advanced Chassis, and All Terrain Contagrip rubber outsole. Its structured design suits multiday hikes, backpacking, and rugged trails, though the waterproof construction has limited breathability.

These mid-height leather hiking boots combine a GORE-TEX waterproof membrane with a supportive MONOWRAP frame, double-injection DuraPU/DynaPU midsole, and Vibram Rene Trac outsole. They suit hikers and backpackers who prioritize waterproof protection, ankle stability, durability, and grip over lightweight summer ventilation.

The Merrell Moab Speed 2 Mid GORE-TEX is a lightweight mid-height hiking boot with a waterproof GORE-TEX membrane, Vibram TC5+ outsole, 4mm lugs, and a full-length rock plate. It suits men who want comfortable, breathable footwear for moderate trails, day hikes, and multi-day trips without the bulk of a traditional hiking boot.

These lightweight mid-height hiking boots combine GORE-TEX waterproofing with a Matryx upper, Advanced Chassis stability, and an All Terrain Contagrip outsole. They suit men who want agile, supportive footwear for day hiking and mixed, muddy, rocky, or wet terrain.
