Hike Inspired, Job Ready
You can't hit the trails every day of the week, but you can bring a bit of the outdoors to the warehouse or factory floor. Inspired by Danner's popular Trail 2650, these work shoes have the comfort and fit of a hiker with the safety features your job requires. A breathable synthetic and textile upper won't snag or rip like mesh, and an oil-and-slip-resistant rubber outsole provides traction, backed by a composite safety toe and electrical hazard protection.
