Salewa MTN Trainer Lite Mid GTX $200 Finally, a hiking boot that does it all. With true-to-size fit and a lightweight suede and mesh build that requires zero break-in, the MTN Trainer Lite Mid is at home on mellow hikes. At the same time, the supportive cuff and semi-stiff sole excel on steep, rocky climbs and descents, with an aggressively lugged outsole that grips everything from kitty-litter scree to wet boulders. A rubber rand around the base of the upper boosts durability, while the supportive, cushioned footbed reduces fatigue. Salewa’s trademark heel-pocket design locks you in to avoid blisters. Yes, they’re expensive, but the years of use you’ll get out of them makes the investment a smart one. 19.4 oz (men’s) / 16.4 oz (women’s, pictured)

BEST FAST-AND-LIGHT HIKER

a. Merrell Altalight Knit Mid $190

The lightest backpacking boot in Merrell’s nearly 40-year history is also one of the most stable and comfortable we tested. Credit the soft, shock-absorbing EVA heel cushioning and the flexible midsole plate, which protected us from rocks without impeding our stride. Top-notch fit comes courtesy of a stretchy tongue that mini mizes pressure points and a stripped-down TPU exoskeleton that wraps around the ankle, heel, and instep to lock you in. The Vibram Megagrip sole handled slick rocks, loose gravel, and mud with ease. 14.8 oz (men’s, pictured) / 12.4 oz (women’s)
