30+ YEARS OF HIKING BOOT GREATNESS

Ask a seasoned backpacker what the ideal hiking boots look like, and you're bound to hear a description of the Mountain Light. That's because for over 30 years, the Mountain Light set the standard for every new product that hit the market. And in all that time, nothing ever dethroned the original. Today, we're proud to re-introduce this classic boot. Every single pair is built by hand in Portland, Oregon, with full-grain leather, Vibram Kletterlift outsoles, and waterproof GORE-TEX liners. The result is a classic design that provides unmatched comfort and support.

FULL-GRAIN LEATHER UPPER

To ensure its quality, Danner puts its leather through six different tests before making their selection. Danner's full-grain leathers are the strongest and most durable form of leather.

RETRO ONE PIECE LEATHER UPPER

Danner's one-piece leather design eliminates openings in the tongue area to help keep out debris and water. It also creates a simple finish with minimal seams.

GORE-TEX (GTX)

100% waterproof and breathable, GORE-TEX liners ensure that no water gets in, while allowing sweat and moisture to get out.

TWO LACE OPTIONS

Because you can never have too many laces, this pair comes with both round and flat laces.

VIBRAM® KLETTERLIFT OUTSOLE

Specifically designed for comfort and durability; the heel provides superb shock absorption and the rubber compound guarantees great traction and stability on both wet and dry surfaces.

STITCHDOWN CONSTRUCTION

Handcrafted to provide a wider platform, our legendary stitchdown construction offers increased stability underfoot. Many of our stitchdown boots can be recrafted.

HOW IT FITS

This EE width is designed to fit an average width foot, similar to a D width. The 650 EE last offers a more relaxed fit for casual, everyday wear while still offering support and stability. Since this style runs a little long, we recommend sizing down a half size for the best fit.

RECRAFTABLE

Extend the life of your boot with our recrafting services. This boot is eligible for a number of paid services, including part replacement, leather care and restitching. 

365-DAY WARRANTY

If you suspect your purchase isn’t up to our unrelenting standards, or is defective in any way, we want to make things right.
