What do we consider a “backpacking boot”?
Backpacking boots are made of durable materials and are perfect for long multi-day backpacking trips with a heavy pack (more than 35 lbs.).
For rating backpacking boots, we hold them to a higher standard than hiking boots because the rigors of bacpacking require the best.
Backpacking boots are mid or high top (about 5-8 inches tall) so they provide good ankle support.
