Outdoor Herbivore reviews the Oboz Yellowstone II hiking boots on a day hike at Rock Jock trail in Linville Gorge. These lightweight hiking boots feature a waterproof (B-Dry) breathable membrane, waterproof nubuck leather shell, and an exceptionally grippy rubber sole.
Overall, the boots were comfortable, the break in time short, and the tread provided excellent traction for the wet, slippery rocks we encountered in Linville Gorge. We’ll update you on the durability and comfort after wearing them for longer distances.
