DESCRIPTION
Conquer city trails and sun-baked trails with the N45 from Danner. These high-performance hiking shoes blend ultralight agility with rugged durability. Featuring nitrogen-infused EnduroFoam, they deliver a high-energy return that makes you feel like you’re walking on air.
Engineered for maximum climate control and protection. The Perspair® upper is breathable and quick-drying, offering superior abrasion resistance against jagged terrain. To prevent hot spots, a foam-core gusset hugs the instep for tailored comfort. Inside, an open-cell OrthoLite footbed dissipates heat, while a lightweight TPU rock plate provides essential underfoot stability. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned thru-hiker, the shock-absorbing midsole ensures you can push for those extra miles without the fatigue.
Built for the long haul, the exclusive Vibram® N45 outsole with Megagrip technology ensures unshakeable traction on both wet and dry surfaces. The trail-inspired fit features an 8mm offset and a wider forefoot for natural stability and a modern, everyday aesthetic. Best of all, these boots are recraftable, allowing for professional resoling to extend their life (fulfilled by Danner). The N45 is a sustainable, reliable investment for any adventurer who demands unrelenting standards from their gear.

PROVENANCE AND ETHICS
Charles Danner opened the doors of Danner Shoe Mfg. Company in the old logging town of Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, with twelve employees to build affordable, handcrafted work boots. In the 1960’s they recognised the cultural shift towards activities in the outdoors like hiking, backpacking and mountain climbing becoming America’s only domestic manufacturer of walking boots.
Building on nearly a century of traditions and high standards of quality originally instilled by their founder, Danner continue to design and manufacture a complete line of hiking, hunting, uniform, work and lifestyle boots in their world-class factory in Portland, Oregon, USA.
