When Danner was founded, in the midst of the Great Depression, Charles Danner’s goal was to make a sturdy, quality work boot at an affordable price. The company has evolved to become one of the best-known U.S. makers of hiking boots beginning in the 1960s, and, in line with its reputation, Danner’s commitment to making high-caliber goods has remained true.
Today, more than 80 years later, Danner’s footwear is more than just an ode to your grandfather’s boots. The company builds and supplies good-looking boots with a wide span of applications, from military use to hiking to everyday urban life. They’re versatile, they’re unpretentious and they’re made to last, whether you’re treading concrete or the trails of the Adirondacks.

The Mountain 600 offers the best of both worlds. It’s equipped with a Vibram SPE midsole and Fuga outsole, meaning it has the same cushion and grip that you’d expect from Danner, but with a lighter weight. There’s also a smooth leather upper, which is completely waterproof, too. But, the sleeker design of the Mountain 600 allows the boot to move seamlessly from the mountain to the city. It performs on any terrain and looks damn good doing it — which makes this boot the ultimate two-for-one.
