While some people love their oversized hiking boots and they certainly have their place, we prefer a hiking shoe that balances ankle support with lightweight trekking efficiency for most day hikes and adventures. Utilizing tech from their esteemed trail running shoes, Inov 8 offers the Roclite G 350 Hiking Shoe for fast hiking with inspiration from their backpacking boots for a touch of added support. The generous midsole stack and Meta-Plate shank offer incredible support to give you confidence over uneven surfaces like scree-fields, boulder mazes, and steep trails filled with wet roots.
