Danner Women's MTN45 Mid GTX Waterproof Hiking Boot - Black — 32888
Next-level stability and long-haul comfort in any conditions — GORE-TEX Invisible Fit waterproofing, a Vibram® Megagrip outsole, and an EnduroFoam midsole with a TPU rock plate.
The MTN45 Mid GTX is a recraftable nubuck leather hiker built for anything from light trekking to backpacking. GORE-TEX Invisible Fit bonds the membrane to the upper for waterproofing with more flexibility, the Vibram N-45 Megagrip outsole grips wet rock, and the EnduroFoam midsole with TPU rock plate protects the foot on sharp terrain. Women's models are built on Danner's Women's Precision Fit last.

GORE-TEX Invisible Fit
Instead of a loose bootie inside the boot, Invisible Fit laminates the GORE-TEX membrane directly to the upper — waterproof with less bulk, better flex, and a lighter boot that dries faster.
Megagrip and a Rock Plate
Vibram's Megagrip compound is the reference for wet-rock traction, and the TPU rock plate inside the EnduroFoam midsole spreads point loads from sharp stone so the foot stays comfortable over a long day. Recraftable when the outsole wears.
Why Choose the Danner 32888?
A waterproof, recraftable nubuck hiker with a Vibram® Megagrip outsole and rock plate — the pick for day hikes through multi-day backpacking in wet, rocky terrain.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the MTN45 Mid GTX 32888 waterproof?
Yes. GORE-TEX Invisible Fit laminates the waterproof membrane directly to the upper — a sealed layer that keeps water out and lets moisture escape, with less bulk than a traditional bootie.
How does the MTN45 Mid fit?
Order the size you wear in athletic shoes and try it with your hiking sock. Women's models (32888, 32889) are built on Danner's Women's Precision Fit last — narrower heel, roomier toes.
Can the MTN45 be resoled?
Yes. Danner lists the MTN45 Mid GTX as recraftable, so a worn Vibram® outsole can be replaced on the original upper.
What does the TPU rock plate do?
It is a stiff plate inside the EnduroFoam midsole that spreads the force of sharp rocks and roots across the whole foot, so you feel support instead of the point.
Is the MTN45 insulated?
It has no added insulation; it is a three-season hiker built to breathe while you move.
What's the difference between the MTN45 Mid and MTN45 Low?
Same GORE-TEX Invisible Fit waterproofing, Vibram Megagrip outsole, and nubuck upper. The Mid adds ankle coverage and an EnduroFoam midsole with rock plate for loaded backpacking; the Low is cut like a trail shoe with an EnduroFoam Plus supercritical midsole for fast, light days.
