Waterproof, grippy, and eminently comfortable, the Fraxion is an excellent choice for long day hikes. While they're surprisingly lightweight, they retain many technical features found in Merrell's more rugged options: air cushion soles, rugged 5mm lugs, and highly breathable mesh lining. In the sweet spot between lightweight responsiveness and rugged durability.
