Merrell Men's All Out Blaze Aero Sport Hiking Water Shoe, Black, 8.5 M US

The fastest way to the top, this speed hiking shoe attacks terrain while allowing fluid, natural motion that responds to every contour for rapid agility. Featuring a mesh upper for ventilation and a Vibram outsole for traction, the All Out Blaze Aero delivers performance and functionality in equal aplomb. The upper of a walking shoe needs to do two things; be breathable without letting in debris and offer a stable, comfortable fit. The upper of the All Out Blaze does just this - and more. It features a breathable mesh lining treated with M SelectTM FRESH which inhibits the build up of odour inducing bacteria to keep your feet feeling fresh and comfortable. For an improved fit, Merrell employs its own Omni-FitTM lacing System which provides a precise, glove like fit. Further foot protection is gained by the inclusion of a bellows tongue which keeps out debris and detritus found off road. A moulded TPU heel counter adds stability and added protection against impact. The midsole and outsole of the All Out Blaze offers a combination of grip and cushioning, ideal for outdoor pursuits such as hikes. A Vibram outsole with Merrells M-Select GRIP provides traction and durability whilst a UniFlyTM midsole provides cushioning on uneven terrain.
