Merrell Sugarbush Waterproof Men's

Here’s a 3-pound waterproof boot that carries the New England backwoods look into your urban, weekend and travel life. The M Select Dry Merrell technology loaded into the Sugarbush garners positive Active Junky ratings for being able to fight back against rain, sleet and snow while remaining all-day breathable. Testers found the fit ran big (up to a full size) and the insoles to be of workable quality. Hero status goes to the leather itself, a nearly-delectable premium selection that never backs down. Lacing is topped with hooks to allow incremental adjustment and sure knotting. Invisible but indispensable, the lining treatment keeps moisture and odor at bay as this pair of Merrell boots gets better with every wearing. Vibram outsoles add another layer of legacy for traction on everything from tarmac to tundra. For its anticipated longevity, the $230 MSRP is right on the mark.
