The GEL-VENTURE 8 WATERPROOF running shoe is designed for the great outdoors. This versatile shoe is excellent for trail runs, light hiking or exploring a new city. Complete with a waterproof application that features a seam-sealed internal bootie construction, the shoe also integrates a gusseted tongue to help keep feet warm and dry in wet weather. This model has been updated with a more accommodating forefoot fit while reducing the number of overlays around the forefoot without sacrificing durability. Lastly, the outsole is more durable, featuring a traction pattern that's been improved with re-engineered lugs under the heel. All of these updates make the new GEL-VENTURE 8 WATERPROOF shoe an excellent companion for your next adventure.
