Columbia

Facet 75 Mid Outdry Hiking Shoe - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I put the Columbia Facet 75 Mid OutDry through a full day on a trail that crossed a handful of streams and had some genuinely sketchy loose shale sections, and the ADAPT TRAX sole with 5mm lugs held its grip better than I expected from a shoe this light. The NAVIC FIT SYSTEM through the midfoot kept things locked in on uneven ground without creating any hot spots, which is usually where lighter hiking shoes start to let you down after a few hours."

A long trail day asks a lot from your footwear, and the Columbia Facet 75 Mid OutDry hiking shoe answers without making you carry the weight of that answer on your feet. The mesh upper with TPU overlays keeps the shoe light and breathable while holding up to the abrasion that comes with full days on rocky terrain. The OutDry membrane wraps waterproof protection directly into the construction rather than layering it on top, so puddles, stream crossings, and light rain stay on the outside where they belong without adding stiffness or trapping heat.

Underfoot, the TECHLITE PLUSH EVA midsole absorbs shock and returns energy across miles that would otherwise wear down your legs by afternoon. The TPU heel lock keeps the foot seated and reduces the kind of slip that leads to blisters on long descents, while the NAVIC FIT SYSTEM cinches the midfoot into a stable platform that moves with you rather than shifting around on uneven ground. The ADAPT TRAX compound sole with 5mm lugs bites into wet rock, mud, and loose trail surface with equal confidence, so the terrain ahead stops being a variable you have to think about.
