HOKA Updates the Anacapa Mid GTX Hiker with Lighter, More Sustainable Materials
 

The HOKA Anacapa 2 Mid GTX hiking shoes feature HOKA’s proprietary sugarcane EVA midsole and Achilles heel comfort build, which combine to make them one of the most comfortable, supportive hiking boots on the market—especially for big, heavy guys like me (6’6” and 250 lbs.).The GORE-TEX bootie construction adds a layer of waterproofing that lets you take the shoes through any terrain and still keep your feet dry and cool. Thanks to the Vibram MegaGrip outsole, you’ll have excellent traction on muddy trails, slippery rocks, and even snowy slopes.

The combination of nubuck leather and mesh gives the upper structure and durability while still offering plenty of breathability so your feet don’t overheat.With the SwallowTail heel, you’ll find every step is more stable and supported, your ankles well-protected from twisting. Best of all, the metal speed hooks make it easier to pull the boots off to kick back and relax faster at the end of a long day of hiking.
