While the all-leather upper of the Bridger gives a nod to classic hikers of yore, there's nothing old-fashioned about these stats: a pliable, extra comfortable collar; a lightweight TPU forefoot plate that preserves the shoe's integrity; BDry waterproofing; metal hardware and a lightweight, aggressive outsole. Unlike the waffle stompers of our youth, the Bridger's leather goodness comes with practically no break-in time.The Upper consists of Waterproof Nubuck Leather. The BFit Deluxe Insole stabilizes arches, protects high-impact zones, and costs nothing extra. Their TPU Chassis provides featherweight, effective armor underfoot, reducing stone bruising and torsional twist. They mold this heel counter in 3D, making it extra durable against collapse. Their proprietary BDry membrane blocks water from wet trails while wicking sweat away.
