Looking for a hiking boot that isn't as burly looking as the traditional options? The Adventurra GTX by Saucony combines the lightweight comfort of the running shoes they're known for, with the technical features needed for a supportive hiking boot.

With necessary things like a Gore-Tex lining to keep your feet dry and supportive overlays and cinching design for support, Saucony has covered the basics of blending hiking boots with better design. It also has some not so standard features that make it even cooler, such as a pouch to tuck in those pesky dangling laces to avoid tripping up on the trail. There's also what Saucony calls an "Achilles Cradle" a soft hinge that cups your heel, making up and downhill a lot more comfortable.

The boot has a lowered heel section, in order to provide a more natural stance and help you balance on uneven terrain. To keep from those slip-ups, there's also the Vibram outsole and triangle lugs on the bottom for increased traction. That's the awesome part about this boot, plenty of support, but the style of a sneaker.
