Hybrid Hiking Boots

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Vivobarefoot Tracker Decon FG2 is Foot-Shaped & Flexible

— October 20, 2022 — Fashion
Hiking boots have a tendency of being wide-fitting with chunky soles but Vivobarefoot is reimagining the look and functionality of hiking books with its hybrid Tracker Decon FG2. Vivobarefoot co-founder, Asher Clark, said in a statement, "Normal hiking boots are rigid, heavy, overly cushioned and structured. Unlike a traditional hiking boot, Tracker Decon FG2 is foot-shaped and flexible."

This hiking boot for uninhibited foot mobility promises to help hikers better connect with nature underfoot. The hiking boot for sensory experiences in the great outdoors is being introduced in two colorways: Acorn and Obsidian.

With features like thermal regulation and anti-odor, the hybrid hiking hoot helps to keep feet feeling dry and comfortable in any weather.
Trend Themes
1. Foot-shaped Hiking Boots - There is an opportunity for shoe manufacturers to create foot-shaped hiking boots that offer better mobility and connection with nature.
2. Flexible Hiking Footwear - Shoe manufacturers can innovate by creating hiking footwear that is more flexible and lightweight, providing more comfort and reducing fatigue.
3. Sensory Experience Hiking Boots - There is a chance for shoe companies to create hiking boots that enable hikers to have more sensory experience while in the great outdoors.
Industry Implications
1. Footwear Industry - The footwear industry can capitalize on creating more flexible and foot-shaped hiking boots.
2. Athletic Apparel Industry - The athletic apparel industry can innovate by creating hiking footwear that is lightweight and provides better sensory experience.
3. Outdoor Adventure Industry - Outdoor companies can create hiking products that provide hikers with a more natural experience and better performance.
