The Asolo Altai Evo GV Hiking Boot offers us a premium trekking boot with GORE-TEX waterproofing and Vibram outsoles to take on the trail. That combination provides all-weather protection and good grip on dry and wet surfaces. The boot also trims some ounces with Asolo's Lite 2 foot bed and synthetic uppers so we literally can tread a little lighter as we're hiking or backpacking.
