Waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane meets a rugged 1.6mm suede leather and mesh upper in the Garmont Akron Mid GTX—a mid-cut trekking shoe engineered for light trekking and day hikes. The ErGo-last follows the natural shape of the foot, while Anatomically Directed Design (ADD) technology optimizes fit and reduces fatigue over long distances. A dual-density EVA midsole absorbs shock, and the Garmont GTF outsole with aggressive lugs grips varied terrain. The Heel Lock system secures the heel, and an Ortholite footbed adds cushioning and moisture management. Finished in Black/Garmont Orange, this men's size 42.5 (UK 8.5, US 9.5) shoe delivers all-day comfort and reliable traction.

Overview

The Akron Mid GTX is built for hikers who demand waterproof protection without sacrificing breathability. The GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane keeps water out while allowing sweat vapor to escape, ensuring feet stay dry in changing conditions. The upper combines durable 1.6mm suede leather with breathable mesh, balancing protection and ventilation. Inside, the Ortholite footbed provides long-lasting cushioning and moisture control, while the dual-density EVA midsole offers shock absorption and support on rocky paths. The Garmont GTF outsole features aggressive lugs that bite into dirt, mud, and gravel, giving you confidence on ascents and descents. The mid-cut height adds ankle support without restricting mobility, and the lace-up closure allows a customizable fit.
