FACET 75 ALPHA OUTDRY SHOE
Advertisement
The latest trail shoe from Columbia Sportswear combines lightweight features from trail-running footwear, with the premium waterproofing, durability and protection of a boot. Along with waterproof breathability due to Columbia’s OutDry tech, it has an extra-light, responsive midsole, durable mesh-and-knit collar, a TPU heel clip for added stability and an Adapt Trax outsole for exceptional traction in wet and dry conditions. They come in a full range of sizes in black and cypress (pictured) colours. over the years I’ve tried a lot of outdoor or hiking shoes, and most didn’t distinguish themselves. But I’m impressed by the Facet 75 Alphas, which I’ve been wearing since late summer. They’re light and nimble, but the grip and support is excellent. I also like the knit cuff, which keeps pebbles and other detritus out. On top of that, I enjoy the way they kinda look like they’re from the future.
