Trustworthy on Trails Both Paved and Blazed
At Danner, hiking boots are a rich tradition — one that sets a high bar for every new addition. Lightweight with a modern aesthetic, the Skyridge is refined enough for urban weekday pursuits, but aggressive enough for impromptu adventure after hours. Looking to the archives of the '80s and '90s, Danner merged the style of two of its most popular hike and work boots to create this modern, daily-wear boot.

If you want a genuinely waterproof daily boot that can handle an unplanned trail without missing a step, this is it. The Danner Dry liner, EVA midsole, and multi-directional lug outsole come together in a boot built for both city streets and blazed trails.
