~Patagonia T80609 Men's Grey Scree Shield Hiking Shoes have suede leather uppers. They’re ready and waiting to hit the dusty trails whenever you are. They’re called Scree for a reason. Scree is the loose rock that you find on mountainsides. It’s tough to climb over, but these Hiking Shoes make it a lot easier.
The forefoot shock absorption pad protects your metatarsals. There’s an EVA and rubber heel strike pad. It’s asymmetrical so it absorbs shock and reduces the impact rate. It dissipates the energy to make the shock work for you. The Dynamic Fit Lacing System gives you the best possible fit. Injection-molded TPU InStep support arms lock the heel in place.
In case you’re an aggressive climber who’s just a little bit clumsy, Patagonia added rubber toe bumpers. They protect your toes when those rocks and tree roots jump in your way. There’s also a wire-brushed rubber rand. A rand is another name for a welt.
You’re going to want to wear them to more functions than just mountain climbing or hiking. You’re going to want to show them off around the campfire. We’ve done a little research and found the best method is to walk slowly between the campfire and the group. Lift your legs high with each step – kind of like a stork. That way, your friends will have ample time to comment on how great your Screes look.
The Patagonia T80609 Men's Grey Scree Shield Hiking Shoes were designed with multi-surface high-density TPU studs in the Vibram Release trail running soles. They give you extra traction while you’re climbing through the scree.
