Montrail Java GTX Day Hiking Shoe - Mens Description:
| The Men’s Montrail Java GTX is waterproof and built tough. The stable design and good traction make the Java GTX ideal for moderate day hikes and overnight backpacks.

The Montrail Java GTX fits the bill with its totally waterproof Gore-Tex construction and deeply lugged yet lightweight outsole. Next time you head out for a moderate day hike or overnight backpack, leave the cement shoes behind and bring something a little more sporty. Throw on the Java GTX. |

Reviews: Montrail Java GTX Day Hiking Shoe - Mens
super supportive
Just picked up a pair of the Java GTX's last week. First test 'drive' was a 9-mile, 2,500-vertical foot grueling hike, and the Java performed flawlessly! I'm definitely stoked--I have a narrow, low-volume foot and it's hard for me to find shoes that fit right. The 'tongue-less' lining is great--didn't get a single pebble inside the shoe the whole hike. The soles are amazingly supportive and provide excellent traction. I did manage to roll my heel once--but that's to be expected with a low-cut shoe--more my fault than anything. This if the first true hiking shoe (as opposed to boot) I've owned--and I'm already sold! Highly recommended!
