The Hedgehog hiking boots are TNF's classic, hiking-proven model designed for versatility and comfort. For this new version, TNF has used breathable FUTURELIGHT™ technology for the membrane. The soles are refined in certain areas with CRADLE™: the toe area provides more rigidity on technical rock and the heel shape is optimized for comfort. Ortholite® insoles retain their long-term cushioning performance, and the durable Vibram® XS Trek outsole offers an optimal balance of grip and strength without adding unnecessary weight or volume.
