After a supremely gripping multi-terrain shoe? Look no further than the latest offering from The North Face - the men's Hedgehog 2 Gore-Tex XCR Shoes featuring an X2-02™ air pod heel and a unique Vibram® outsole. Beneath their prickly exteriors, hedgehogs are actually pretty well cushioned, soft creatures, this is exactly where the inspiration for the North Face Hedgehog 2 GTX XCR® derived from. The North Face Hedgehog 2 GTX XCR® feature a feather light compression-moulded EVA midsole to keep you stable and grounded and in the heel there is a X2-02™ air pod injection-moulded TPU shank plate. Now that's impressive. An abrasion-resistant, element-shielding Gore-Tex® XCR® membrane coats the shoes meaning your feet stay bone dry even in torrential downpours. Designed with the needs of speed hikers and multisport athletes in mind, the Men’s Hedgehog GTX XCR® deliver the goods on all terrains. They feature a waterproof Gore-Tex® membrane to repel rain or snow whilst drawing moisture in the other direction away from your feet, and have a synthetic nubuck and mesh upper for breathability and resistance to abrasion. The compression-moulded midsole and grippy Vibram® outsole are both lightweight, keeping down the ounces on this shoe to leave you unencumbered. Featuring a streamlined profile, they are part of The North Face® Fastpacking collection, developed to give shoes the responsiveness athletes need to traverse tricky terrain quickly without compromising the demands of support.
