My absolute favorite shoes - didn't care for the color. Brand new, tried on once. Will arrive just like new. Paid $170 plus tax and shipping. Womens 8.5 Wide in "deep sea/black" Fresh Foam = super comfortable Vibram Soles = Superior traction The GORE-TEX Laminate (textile backer and membrane) is part of the shoes upper. The laminate and upper are directly bonded together so that the GORE-TEX Laminate and upper (external textile) becomes one piece. This creates a sock-like lining that allows full protection of the foot to prevent any water from entering in. By creating this direct bond, it also allows the exact shape of the last form to be followed, which gives GORE-TEX Invisible Fit Footwear the same fit and feel to the identical non-waterproof style. Take every step forward with improved comfort and style wearing New Balance® Fresh Foam X Hierro v8 Gore-Tex® Trail Running Shoes. The round-toe, low-top shoes are crafted with a nylon upper, cotton lining, and a comfortable insole. The lace-up closure with GORE-TEX invisible fit ensures easy adjustability and the ankle pull tab allows easy donning & doffing. Nylon outsole.
