Naglev – Vulcano

Wednesday, June 22nd, 2022

The Vulcano from Italian boot maker Naglev is described as a speed hiker, combing the stability of a hiking boot with the agility of a trail runner.

The secret is apparently the rather prominent single piece of wrap-around Kevlar, even around the outsole. It also features integrated cable lacing, a wicking Lycra liner, a midsole and footbed that molds to your foot over time for a custom fit, and a natural rubber compound outsole.

The Vulcano uses European sizing and is available exclusively from Huckberry.

ORSM 22 – Adidas Five Ten

Thursday, June 16th, 2022

I have been a huge fan of Five Ten for years. It’s good to see that the brand is still alive under Adidas but I wish they’d go back to their roots and create some more outdoor styles beyond the biking styles they currently make.

However, some of these shoes can be used for other applications than intended like the Trailcross Mid Pro.

This non-waterproof, mid height boot can be used for maritime ops and incorporates D3O at the ankle to mitigate injuries.

Best of all, and features Five Ten’s famous stealth rubber sole compound?. Sticky, it will ensure you are surefooted on wet terrain.

We’ve featured Brandblack’s Milspec models in the past.

They’ve updated the model for 2023 with Cordura uppers and a waterproof breathable lining as well as the new EVO sole which is not only wider for better stability but also incorporates 3mm of foam for comfort.

They’ve also added an Olive color way which is reminiscent of the classic jungle boot.
