Timberland was hell-bent on shaving ounces off the Lite Trace Mid, so it deconstructed the shoe: instead of bonding the waterproof-breathable membrane to an outer fabric (like everyone else does), they beefed it up and let it doubleas the shoe’s exerior. The result: a midcut hikerthat weighs less than many running shoes.
