Vasque Women's Kota Day Hiking Shoe:
A true cross trainer for the outdoor lifestyle, the Vasque Women's Kota Day Hiker is light enough for trail running, yet supportive enough for carrying an overnight pack or scrambling on off-trail routes. This shoe is perfect for a wide variety of people, from the person who has a casual interest in hiking, scrambling, and backpacking but doesn't want to buy a different pair of shoes for each activity. It's also well suited for the achievement minded person who regularly probes deep into the wilderness on marathon one-day and overnight excursions. Integrated technology combines the outsole, molded thermoplastic urethane (TPU) plate, and compression molded EVA insole into a protective and supportive underfoot unit that feels tough and stable, ready to tackle a rocky trail or kick up some dust on a trail run. Although the upper does not have as much mesh content as a traditional trail running shoe, the Vasque Kota Day Hiker for women instead uses a combination of 1.8mm waterproof nubuck and pig suede leather as the primary upper materials for improved weather resistance and greater durability. And for snug support that feels great on uneven terrain, the laces link into a pair of angled webbing straps on either side of the instep to wrap the upper material around the foot.
