A no-compromise mid-height shoe built for the mountain. Drom packs all the performance features you need and will take you where you want to go.
The mid-height upper made from durable premium quality split leather provides more ankle support and protection than a low-cut shoe. The highly adjustable lace closure extends close to the toe for a really secure fit and is lined with the exceptionally breathable Moisture-Tech® waterproof lining from Sympatex®. A very generous protective rand guards against scuffs and abrasion. Unlike other approach shoes the Drom boasts a fully board-lasted construction (similar to a mountaineering boot) with a full-length midsole giving it excellent underfoot support on rough terrain. This midsole has a soft EVA top surface layer which greatly enhances underfoot comfort on long hikes.
A great mountain approach shoe needs a great outsole and for the Drom, Boreal chose the Vibram® Pepe rubber outsole which has an aggressive deeply lugged tread pattern for excellent traction on soft and loose surfaces and weight saving cut-outs to shave away any excess weight. Light weight yet rugged, Drom Mid is a perfect footwear choice for mountain approaches, scrambling, Via Ferrata and trail walking.
