Danner high ground Optifade Subalpine Boot

Danner’s name is renown among servicemen, hikers and hunters.  In the High Ground they’ve pulled some of their latest innovations from the hiking side of the house to give hunters a more comfortable ride. A tighter heel pocket and wider toe box provide for a more stable chassis when navigating unstable terrain features while the inclusion of elements like oiled nubuck leather, 9000 Denier nylon and a GORE-TEX lining ensure it stands up to your abuse. It also happens to come in one of our favorite patterns: Optifade Subalpine.
