Description

Setting the standard with GORE-TEX liners since 1979

As far as this boot is concerned, it's still the golden era of backpacking. To build it, DannerC bootmakers sought out leathers similar to those used on the original DannerC Light, introduced in 1979. This classic-inspired boot features stitchdown construction and a Vibram Kletterlift outsole. The DannerC Light Black is still built by hand, in our Portland, Oregon, factory with rich full grain leather, denier nylon panels and a waterproof GORE-TEX liner.
