The Banks has been highly popular for years. Now it is also available as this Straight Fit Extra last version, which gives more space for the toes. There's also more space around the ball of the foot. The Banks is nice and supple to wear. When full-tilt trekking shoes are overkill, the Banks is there to take you to your day and weekend trips and why not longer treks as well, if you are into lightweight gear. The sole rolls very well, making for an even lighter feel. In the "ABCD" stiffness / purpose of use system the Banks lands in category BA. - Men's sizes - Waterproof and breathable Gore-Tex membrane keeps your feet dry - Vibram® Trekking SF outer sole - Surface material: nubuck leather, suede leather and textile - Reinforfced PU mid sole - Durable metal lace hooks
