Premium hiking brand Vasque recently expanded its portfolio with the introduction of the All-In Juxt and Breeze LT GTX in new, monochromatic colorways including Dune and Jet Black. These signature shoes have been a fan favorite for many years thanks to their reliability and durability.
The All-In Juxt boasts Vibram Off-The-Grid outsole that offers a stable foundation while the suede leather upper protects your feet from the elements. These comfortable hiking shoes can be worn from the city to the country and offers all-day comfort. The Breeze LT GTX, on the other hand, features the exclusive VIBRAM Megagrip for exceptional traction while the VIBRAM Litebase technology reduces the weight of the outsole by one quarter and are ideal for outdoor adventures.
