"The Lowa Ronan GTX Mid boot is a favorite for day hiking and short-haul weekend backpacking. Comfortable, supportive and cushioned, this men's mid-cut hiking boot sports a one-piece leather upper with a seamless, GORE-TEX waterproof lining. The full-length nylon shank provides enhanced performance for more rugged terrain. The polyurethane Monowrap Frame of the Lowa Ronan GTX Mid boot reduces overall weight and retains lateral stability."
