The strangest entry into Gear Patrol’s list of The Best Hiking Boots is undoubtedly Naglev’s Unico Hiker, which has held its place there for more than a year. The hiking shoe is unlike any other — its primary ingredients are Kevlar and wool — but it takes to trails with unparalleled durability and comfort.

Most Bombproof Construction
Combat WP
Naglev announced in 2020 that it was finally expanding on that award-winning design by releasing a full-sized hiking boot called the Unico Combat WP. That boot had released at the end of 2020 but sold out extremely quick right away and has done so again and again after multiple restocks. But it’s now available to purchase on Huckberry again right ahead of prime hiking season.

Like the Hiker, the Combat WP is distinct with its Kevlar upper, which is both waterproof and highly abrasion-resistant. The interior consists of a sock-like wool liner, which provides comfort despite the boot’s rock-proof construction. The hiking boot also includes a footbed made of leather and coconut fibers and a dual-density EVA midsole — the same kind you’ll find in many hiking boots and running shoes — and a natural rubber outsole with aggressive lugs.
The Naglev Unico Combat WP hiking boot is available on Huckberry now, just in time for upcoming hikes. Hurry though, as it’s quite rare that both Naglev boots are in stock at the same time.
