Price: $85.99. Stock: In stock.
Key features
The Scrambler Mid II focuses on lightweight flexibility, natural foot positioning, and trail-ready traction.
- Ultra-light construction — designed to reduce bulk for day hikes and longer treks.
- Barefoot-style natural fit — a wide toe box and flexible platform let the foot move and splay naturally.
- Michelin Fiberlite sole — a lightweight, flexible outsole built for strength and mobility.
- Mountain bike–inspired lugs — nubby, mud-shedding tread pattern for grip on mixed surfaces.
- Protective upper details — abrasion-resistant mesh, welded sidewalls and a two-layer toe cap for added durability.
Comfort and fit
The Scrambler Mid II delivers a low-profile, natural-feel fit that emphasizes ground feel and toe-room comfort.
The boot’s flexible sole and wide forefoot promote barefoot-style proprioception, while a thin layer of TrailFoam underfoot adds a touch of cushioning for rough trails. The manufacturer recommends ordering your regular US shoe size to get the intended fit.
Traction and sole performance
The Michelin Fiberlite sole on the Scrambler Mid II is designed to balance lightness with off-trail traction and flexibility.
The Fiberlite construction combines flexibility with embedded textile reinforcement for durability, and the nubby, mud-shedding lugs are optimized for grip across dirt, rock, and mixed terrain without a heavy, stiff sole.
Who this boot is for
The Scrambler Mid II suits hikers who want a minimal, lightweight boot for day hikes, technical trail use, or extended trekking where foot mobility and low weight matter.
- Ideal for walkers who prefer a barefoot-style, zero-drop platform with a protective mid-height boot.
- Works well for multi-day treks and variable terrain where packability and flexibility are priorities.
- Compatible with common foot-health accessories — it pairs well with toe socks and proprioceptive or metatarsal accessories such as Correct Toes, Injinji toe socks, Naboso insoles, Pedag metatarsal pads, or Strutz foot pads.
